Problems solved by technology

[0006] While this automatic resizing step is beneficial for both, it has the disadvantage that if the user wants to "zoom in" on elements of the image that are of interest (such as faces), these areas will be of low quality because The image was previously downsized
However, these techniques do not preserve the aspect ratio of the original image, so distortion of the face occurs, which is particularly undesirable for faces
Also, the user is not given the option to show the original image or show the focused element

Embodiment Construction

[0025] refer to figure 1 , the device 100 of an embodiment comprises an input terminal 101 connected to an input of the determining means 103 . An output of the determination means 103 is connected to an input of a processor 105 . The input terminal 101 is also connected to an input of a processor 105 . The output of the processor 105 is connected to a storage device 107 . The storage device 107 is connected to an output terminal 109 of the device 100 .

[0026] Although storage 107 is illustrated here as being internal to device 100, in alternative embodiments storage 107 may be external to the device. The storage means 107 may be a memory device of a computer system, such as a ROM / RAM drive, a CD, a memory device of a camera, a digital photo frame or similar device connected to the device 100, or a remote server. It may be accessed via a wireless or wired connection and / or via a wider network such as the Internet. The storage device 107 stores a plurality of images for ...

Abstract

At least one region of interest within an image is determined, step 201. The image is resized to a target image size step 207. If at least one region of interest is determined the image is cropped to each of the at least one region of interest, step 205 and the cropped at least one region of interest is resized to the target image size. The resized image and the resized cropped at least one region of interest are stored for display, step 209.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and apparatus for providing images for display. In particular, the invention relates to resizing an image to a target image size for display. Background technique [0002] Recent years have seen a surge in the number of digital images that users capture on a daily basis. [0003] While in the past users only captured images during special events and were careful about the composition of the images (because it was expensive to develop these), digital photo cameras and increased storage space have caused a dramatic change in behavior. It is now typical for users to capture multiple images of the same subject, and it is not uncommon for them to come home from vacation with hundreds or even thousands of images. [0004] The resolution of these images and, correspondingly, the physical size they occupy on storage devices have also increased significantly; however, the storage space of preferred devices for displayi...
