Abstract

In particular embodiments, a computing system may detect a number of objects captured within an overlapping region between a first field of view associated with a first camera and a second field of view associated with a second camera. The system may determine a respective priority ranking for each of the objects. The system may select an object from the objects based on the respective priority ranking for the object. The system may determine, for the first camera, a first lighting condition associated with the first field of view. The system may determine, for the second camera, a second lighting condition associated with the second field of view. The system may determine a shared exposure time for the selected object based on the first lighting condition and the second lighting condition. The system may cause at least one image of the selected object to be captured using the shared exposure time.
