Abstract:
A method and apparatus for improving quality of an enlarged image are provided. The apparatus includes first and second image input units for outputting first and second images which are obtained by capturing the same subject at different positions spaced apart by a predetermined gap, a first image processor for converting a resolution of the first image to a preview resolution, a display for displaying the first image from the first image processor, a second image processor for, when an area to be enlarged in the displayed first image is selected, cropping an area corresponding to the selected area from the second image, and a controller for controlling the display to display the cropped area on the first image in an overlaying manner. Consequently, a user may view a high-magnification image cropped from a high-definition image and an original image together.
Abstract:
An electronic device and a method for controlling photographic capture. A first image is acquired by a first camera having a first viewing angle. A second image is acquired by a second camera having a second viewing angle, the second viewing angle being different from the first viewing angle. The first image is overlaid with at least one object from the second image, or an icon corresponding to the object. The first camera and the second camera are mounted to a same surface, or to disparate surfaces relative to one another. Photographic capture or control is triggered in response to movement of the object.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for image processing includes receiving images, detecting non-stationary objects in the images, displaying a first image that includes a non-stationary object, selecting a frame region including the non-stationary object in the first image, selecting a second image based on a low similarity with the first image, and replacing image data in the frame region of the first image with image data represented in the frame region of the second image.
Abstract:
A method of operating an electronic device for image interpolation is provided. The method includes estimating a direction of pixels using a plurality of filters respectively corresponding to a plurality of angles, correcting the direction of the pixels using a direction of neighboring pixels, determining whether the direction estimation has an error according to a direction distribution of the neighboring pixels, and when the direction estimation is determined to have error, correcting the error in the direction estimation.
Abstract:
A user terminal includes: a first camera and a second camera photographing a subject; and a controller photographing a user using the second camera upon photographing through the first camera to thus recognize the user, and performing predetermined image processing on an image photographed through the first camera according to the result of the user recognition. Therefore, by recognizing a user and performing image processing on a photographed image based on the result of the user recognition, it is possible to protect a user's copyright for photographed images and also to use user information for various purposes by associating the user information with photographed images.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for generating a photograph image. The method includes: measuring an illumination value, acquiring a plurality of source images used to generate one final image, generating a set final image either by selecting one source image with best quality among the plurality of acquired source images, or by combining the plurality of acquired source images, based on the measured illumination value. The present disclosure allows to acquire a clear and bright photograph image in a low-light environment.
Abstract:
A method of an electronic device including an image sensor that acquires an optical signal corresponding to an object and a controller that controls the image sensor, is provided. The method includes identifying a mode for generating an image corresponding to the object by using the optical signal, determining a setting of at least one image attribute to be used for generating the image at least based on the mode, generating image data by using pixel data corresponding to the optical signal at least based on the setting, and displaying the image corresponding to the object through a display functionally connected to the electronic device at least based on the image data.
Abstract:
According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an electronic device may comprise an image sensor and one or more processors configured to obtain a first plurality of image frames for an external object as per a first frame rate, detect a variation associated with the external object, when the variation meets a designated condition, obtain a second plurality of image frames for the external object as per the first frame rate or a second frame rate, generate a first portion of a video using at least some of the first plurality of image frames, generate a second portion of the video using at least some of the second plurality of image frames, and generate a third portion of the video using at least some of a third plurality of image frames for the external object obtained as per the first frame rate or a third frame rate.
