Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, even though the "tick" sound occurs automatically, it may not be heard by others in noisy environments
In addition, when the user using the miniature camera suppresses the "tick" sound, the other person cannot realize that it is being photographed
[0005] Also, with the development of the Internet and the like, since photographs taken secretly as described above can be uploaded to websites and the like, people's privacy can be violated

Embodiment Construction

[0023] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] In the following description, specific items such as image signal format, transport packet format, and image compression scheme are exemplary. It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention may be readily practiced without the specific examples shown.

[0025] Hereinafter, a method of inserting identification information into a data format of an encoded image will be described. Furthermore, identification information can be inserted into captured images such as still images and moving pictures such as videos. The identification information may include an electronic fingerprint that uniquely identifies the device that captured the image. In the embodiments of the present invention, a description will be given based on the assumption that a camera is mounted on a portable terminal. However, the present invention can ...

Abstract

Disclosed is an apparatus for processing image data in a portable terminal equipped with a camera. In the apparatus the image data photographed by the camera are coded by a predetermined coding scheme in a photographing mode of the camera, header information of a stream of the coded image data is generated and inserted into the stream, identifying information is generated as a watermark and the watermark is inserted into the stream, and the stream comprising the watermark is stored.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus for image processing in a terminal equipped with a camera. More particularly, the present invention relates to an apparatus for inserting identification information of a mobile terminal into a captured image. Background technique [0002] Generally, an image processing apparatus includes a camera for capturing images and a display unit for displaying image signals captured by the camera. The camera may use a Charge Coupled Device (CCD) sensor or a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) sensor, and the display unit may use a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). As cameras have been miniaturized, the devices used to capture images have also been miniaturized. Currently, miniaturized digital cameras have become popular, and the cameras have been mounted on portable terminals. The portable terminal can capture images, convert the captured images into moving pictures or still pictures, and display the moving...
