US Patent 11087484 Camera apparatus and method of detecting a stream of objects

A camera apparatus is provided for detecting a stream of objects moving relative to the camera apparatus having a plurality of individual cameras that each have an image sensor for recording frames, wherein the frames overlap one another in part, having an evaluation unit for compiling frames, and having a geometry detection sensor for detecting geometrical data of the objects. The evaluation unit is here configured to generate an object image assembled from frames of an individual object of the stream of objects, with the selection of the participating frames and/or the assembly taking place on the basis of the geometrical data.
