Provided is an electronic device for a temporal synchronization, which determines a set of parameters associated with each imaging device of a plurality of imaging devices. The set of parameters include frame rate of each imaging device. The electronic device generates a synchronization signal that includes a preamble pulse of a first time duration set based on the frame rate and a sequence of alternating ON and OFF pulses. Each pulse of the sequence of alternating ON and OFF pulses is of a second time duration set based on the set of parameters. Based on the synchronization signal, lighting devices may be controlled to generate a pattern of alternating light pulses that is captured by each imaging device. The electronic device further acquires a plurality of images that includes information about the pattern of alternating light pulses. The electronic device further synchronizes the plurality of images, based on the information.
