This example describes how to program a sequencer for a shape from shading application triggered via software trigger. Shape from shading is a technical solution to extract 3D information out of 2D images recorded at the same position but each with different lighting. The sequencer is set-up to take 4 images in fast succession triggered by one software trigger. The example uses the 4 high-power PWM outputs of the VCXG.I cameras to power 4 flash segments positioned to illuminate the scene from different angles.

If you want to know more about what to do with a sequencer or when to use a shape from shading, please refer to the application notes below and the user guide of VCXG.I cameras.

Intended camera behavior
VT_Verhalten_der_Kamera_für_Sfs.png

The camera is set to trigger mode for shape from shading purposes. Four images are then acquired for each incoming trigger signal.

For each acquired image, the camera outputs activate the illumination in one of the quadrants.
