Abstract
A method of analyzing images is performed at a computer system that is in communication with an image acquisition device having an image sensor. The method includes receiving a reference template that includes a sync region and an inspection region that is located at an offset from the sync region. The method also includes acquiring a continuous sequence of image frames from the image sensor and storing each of the image frames in a buffer within the computer system's memory. The method further includes, for each image frame in the buffer, determining whether the image frame includes a sub-region matching the sync region. The method also includes, in accordance with a determination that the image frame includes a sub-region matching the sync region, capturing an inspection region within the image frame at the offset from the sub-region, and storing the captured inspection region to a non-volatile portion of the memory.
