Abstract:
An apparatus and method for adjusting a white balance, and more particularly, an apparatus and method for adjusting a white balance of an image captured with a complex light source are provided. The apparatus includes a camera unit, and a controller for controlling recognition of a facial image from an image captured by the camera unit and, if it is determined that the image has been captured with a complex light source based on a comparison between a white balance gain calculated based on a facial skin color of the recognized facial image and a white balance gain calculated based on a white balance scheme, for adjusting a white balance of the captured image based on a final white balance gain extracted by interpolating the two white balance gains.
Abstract:
An apparatus and a method for generating a motion blur in a mobile terminal are provided. It is determined whether motion halting occurs during video shooting. If the motion halting occurs, a motion vector of each block between first and second consecutive images where the motion halting has occurred is estimated. A motion blur is generated on the second image using the motion vector of each block, and the motion-blurred image is displayed on a display unit.
Abstract:
A method for communicating data by an electronic device is provided. The method includes transmitting a signal including audio/video (A/V) data to a first external electronic device through a first communication module, while connected with the first external electronic device, generating data or a signal unrelated to the A/V data or receiving the data or signal unrelated to the A/V data from an external electronic device other than the first external electronic device, and providing an audio or a video through a display or an embedded sound device based on at least a portion of the data or the signal unrelated to the A/V data or transmitting the at least a portion of the data or the signal unrelated to the A/V data to a second external electronic device through a second communication module.
Abstract:
A method comprising: capturing, by an electronic device, a first incident light sample and generating an image based on the first incident light sample; capturing, by the electronic device, a second incident light sample and identifying a light source type associated with the second incident light sample; and adjusting a white balance of the image according to the light source type.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for dual recording shooting in an electronic device including a dual camera are provided. The method includes acquiring a first picture from a first camera that is in an operation state, acquiring a second picture from a second camera that is in a wait state, outputting the first picture at a first resolution, downscaling the second picture to a second resolution, outputting the second picture downscaled to the second resolution, and synthesizing the first picture and the second picture that is downscaled to the second resolution and previewing the synthesized result, using a Picture In Picture (PIP) function and, when a dual recording start instruction event occurs, restoring the second picture that is downscaled to the second resolution to a previous resolution, outputting the second picture restored to the previous resolution, synthesizing the first picture and the restored second picture, and recording the synthesized result.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for image processing. The method includes: setting a block including at least one pixel and a window including the at least one block, with a center pixel as a reference; converting an input image in a YCbCr format to a monochrome image; determining a magnitude of an edge component and an edge direction in the window; determining a weight of the block in consideration of the magnitude of the edge component and the edge direction; and determining a color signal value of the center pixel by reflecting the weight of the block in the monochrome-converted window.
