Abstract:
Methods and apparatuses are provided for obtaining an image by an electronic device. A first image for an object is obtained from a first image sensor of the electronic device. Information regarding a focusing state is determined with respect to the object based on the first image. The second image sensor of the electronic device is focused on the object based on the information regarding the focusing state. A second image for the object is obtained through the second image sensor.
Abstract:
An electronic device for extracting a distance of an object and displaying information and a method thereof. The method includes extracting relative distance information of at least two or more objects using a pixel distribution diagram sensed using a sensor of the electronic device and displaying information on an object with a relative value in which the extracted relative distance information and object analysis information are reflected.
Abstract:
Some of pixels in a general image sensor for image capturing are designated as vision pixels used for vision recognition. Optical information obtained only from the vision pixels is used to perform vision recognition in the vision recognition mode. Capturing image data is generated based on optical information obtained from all the pixels in the image data in the image-shooting mode. A digital signal converter that converts optical information obtained only from vision pixels into a digital signal is separately provided in addition to a digital signal converter that converts optical information of all pixels in the image sensor into a digital signal.
Abstract:
An operation method of an electronic device is provided. The method includes detecting motion objects in each of two or more continuously captured images, determining whether the detected motion objects are synthesizable for use as wallpaper, and providing feedback according to whether the detected motion objects are synthesizable for use as wallpaper.

The method includes determining illuminance corresponding to a subject, automatically determining a capturing mode of an electronic device based on at least the illuminance, acquiring a first resulting image of the subject based on a first exposure time, if the capturing mode is a first capturing mode, and acquiring a plurality of images of the subject based on a second exposure time, if the capturing mode is a second capturing mode, and generating a second resulting image based on at least two images among the plurality of images.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided in which an image sensor, operatively coupled with an electronic device, is operated in a first state based on a determination that the image sensor is to be operated in a low power mode. When the image sensor is operating in the first state, a setup value corresponding to a photographing mode is preserved, and the image sensor is refrained from outputting a stream of data.
