A method and apparatus for entering a low power mode is provided. In one embodiment, data processing system (10) has power control circuitry (52) which may be used to control power usage in data processing system (10). Power mode select circuitry (84) may be used to select a power mode. Depending upon the power mode selected, power control circuitry (52) may use a cascaded approach to selecting which portions of data processing system (10) will be powered down, and thus how deeply data processing system (10) will be powered down.

An IPC network (1900) allows for the dynamic composition of services. An IPC client (1902) can for example request a service, such as a new photo service, and teach the IPC network what service components comprise the service. The IPC server (1908) will wait until all of the required service components (1914, 1916) have registered with the IPC network (1900) prior to allowing the IPC client (1902) the go ahead to use the service. The dynamic composition of services allows clients/components operating in the IPC network (1900) to change service definitions without affecting the interprocessor communications between applications operating in the network (1900). Also, the IPC network (1900) learns dynamically the new service and is able to identify the availability of the service within the network (1900).

Disclosed herein are exemplary embodiments for automatically capturing images in a mobile electronic device. One embodiment comprises sensing device motion and automatically triggering image capture when the device is stationary. Use of this approach reduces image blur and avoids the need for subsequent image alteration or compensation for camera motion. Images can simply be captured in-between motions by leveraging high-resolution sensors and computational assets available to the mobile device to accurately assess when to trigger the shutter. Images can then be saved in a memory within the device. Enhancements to the disclosed method of automatic image capture include pre-selecting a set of threshold values for image acceptance.

Disclosed herein are representative embodiments of tools and techniques for using storyboards in controlling a camera for capturing images, photographs, or video. According to one exemplary technique, at least two storyboards are stored. In addition, at least one storyboard identifier from a camera application is received. Also, using the storyboard identifier, a storyboard of the stored at least two storyboards is retrieved. The retrieved storyboard includes a sequence of control frames for controlling a camera. Additionally, a sequence of image frames is captured at least by controlling a camera using the retrieved storyboard.

Modified compression/decompression and metadata in burst mode images reduce the storage space consumed by burst mode images. Metadata is added to image files (e.g., EXIF files) to establish links between images in a burst mode image series. A series of linked burst mode images can include delta images representing a temporal difference between the image data (e.g., pixel data) for two burst images captured at different time instances. Difference information can be compressed. A root image for a linked burst mode series can be identified and used as a reference for other burst images. Metadata can be added to image files to link burst images prior to compression, after compression, or at an intermediate stage of compression of image data. Difference information for delta image files can be derived prior to compression, after compression, or at an intermediate stage of compression of image data.

The present application provides increased flexibility and control to a user by providing a camera and camera controller system that is responsive to a user-defined script. The user-defined script can allow a user to choose a subject and have the camera follow the subject automatically. In one embodiment, a camera is provided for taking still or video images. Movement of the camera is automatically controlled using a camera controller coupled to the camera. A user script is provided that describes a desired tracking of an object. The camera controller is responsive to the script for controlling the camera in order to track the object.

Display surface tracking techniques are described in which a one or more modules may perform enhanced rendering techniques to output graphics based on tracking of a display device. In an embodiment, one or more tracking sensors may be used to track position of a display relative to a viewer. In at least some embodiments, the tracking sensors include a camera of the device that is used to monitor a position of the viewer relative to the display. Based on tracking performed via the one or more tracking sensors, projection planes used to render graphics on the display may be calculated and a graphics presentation may be output in accordance with the calculated projection planes.
