Abstract:
A photographing device may reduce additional consumption of memory capacity and power and capture high resolution images. A method of controlling the photographing device includes storing first resolution input images acquired from live view images in a buffer; storing, according to an input of a time point, a second resolution input image acquired at the time point from the live view images in the buffer; and generating a result image based on the second resolution input image when the second resolution input image, which is stored within a threshold time from a photography command reception time point, is found in the buffer, and generating at least one of the stored first resolution image images as the result image when the second resolution input image, which is stored within the threshold time from the photography command reception time point, is not found in the buffer.
Abstract:
An endoscopic apparatus is disclosed. The endoscopic apparatus includes a light source which has a plurality of light source components which output light beams which cross one another; an estimator which estimates a geometry of an internal surface of a body; and a controller which controls so that an intensity of a light beam output by any one of the plurality of light source components is variably adjusted based on the estimated geometry of the internal surface of the body.
