The main difference between global shutter cameras and rolling shutter cameras lies in the image acquisition method, as follows:
1. Image acquisition method
Global shutter camera: All pixels are exposed at the same time, suitable for shooting high-speed moving objects to avoid image distortion.
Rolling shutter camera: Pixels are exposed line by line, which may cause distortion of moving objects, such as the "jelly effect".
2. Image quality
Global shutter camera: The image is distortion-free and suitable for high-speed moving scenes.
Rolling shutter camera: Distortion may occur when shooting moving objects, and the image quality is better in static scenes.
3. Cost and complexity
Global shutter camera: Complex manufacturing and high cost.
Rolling shutter camera: Simple structure and low cost.
4. Application scenarios
Global shutter camera: Industrial inspection, high-speed photography, scientific research, etc.
Rolling shutter camera: Consumer electronics, ordinary photography, video recording, etc.
5. Power consumption and speed
Global shutter camera: High power consumption, but fast reading speed.
Rolling shutter camera: low power consumption, slow read speed.
Summary
Global shutter camera: suitable for high-speed motion scenes, no image distortion, but high cost.
Rolling shutter camera: low cost, suitable for static or low-speed motion scenes, but distortion may occur.
When choosing a camera, you need to weigh these factors according to your specific needs.
