Abstract
Systems, apparatus, and methods for encoding timelapse videos. Timelapse photography involves capturing a sequence of images at set intervals over a period of time and then playing them back at a higher speed. Unfortunately, timelapse photography introduces a variety of problems that conventional photography does not have. Exemplary embodiments capture light information in a power efficient manner and encode them in bulk (a video segment at a time). In some variants, the light information may be stored as raw data; in other variants, the light information may be stored as compressed images. The segment-based encoding has the additional benefit of creating identifiable breakpoints that allow for file access without interfering with the capture; this may be used to check the status of the video mid-recording.
