Abstract
There is provided techniques for setting frame rates of a camera. The camera comprises a plurality of image sensors arranged to capture images to be stitched into a panorama image of a scene. Information of a respective angle between the optical axis of each of the plurality of image sensors and a direction along which a straight path structure, to be monitored by the camera, extends through the scene is obtained. The plurality of image sensors are divided into at least two groups as a function of the angles. All the angles of the image sensors within each of the at least two groups are part of its own continuous angle interval. One frame rate is set per each of the at least two groups. The frame rate decreases from the group with highest continuous angle interval towards the group with lowest continuous angle interval.
