Abstract

Provided are systems and methods related to a multiple position rolling shutter camera. A system can include an imaging device, an actuator, a processor, and a storage media. The imaging device can be configured to capture an image within a field of view using a rolling shutter that operates in a shutter direction. The actuator can be coupled to the imaging device and configured to rotate the imaging device between a first orientation, wherein the shutter direction comprises a first direction, and a second orientation, wherein the shutter direction comprises a second direction that is different than the first direction. The instructions can, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to cause the actuator to rotate the imaging device between the first orientation and the second orientation.
