Abstract: An example system comprises a base with a bottom end and a top end opposite the bottom end, a motor within the base, the motor being coupled to a rotational component of the base and configured to turn the rotational component about an axis of rotation, the rotational component being at the top end of the base, the axis of rotation being perpendicular to the top end of the base, and an arm coupled to the rotational component, the arm configured to move a holding member above the top of the base, the holding member configurable to hold a digital device above the top end of the base, the arm being adjustable to position and tilt the holding member, the rotational component being capable of turning the arm and the holding member, the arm configured to tilt the holding member at a first angle relative to the arm.

Abstract: An environmental capture system (ECS) captures image data and depth information in a 360-degree scene. The captured image data and depth information can be used to generate a 360-degree scene. The ECS comprises a frame, a drive train mounted to the frame, and an image capture device coupled to the drive train to capture, while pointed in a first direction, a plurality of images at different exposures in a first field of view (FOV) of the 360-degree scene. The ECS further comprises a depth information capture device coupled to the drive train. The depth information capture device and the image capture device are rotated by the drive train about a first, substantially vertical, axis from the first direction to a second direction. The depth information capture device, while being rotated from the first direction to the second direction, captures depth information for a first portion of the 360-degree scene. The image capture device captures, while pointed in the second direction, a plurality of images at different exposures in a second FOV that overlaps the first FOV of the 360-degree scene. The depth information capture device and the image capture device are rotated by the drive train about the first axis from the second direction to a third direction. The depth information capture device, while being rotated from the second direction to the third direction, captures depth information for a second portion of the 360-degree scene. The image capture device, while pointed in the third direction, captures a plurality of images at different exposures in a third FOV that overlaps the second FOV of the 360-degree scene.
