Abstract

Method for capturing an image of an object (110) by using a camera unit (120) comprising an air touch display (130) and an objective (150). The method comprises activating (401) a viewfinder mode of the camera unit (120), displaying (402) the view of the objective (150) in viewfinder mode on the air touch display (130), recognising (403), by the air touch display (130), a finger (140) situated above the surface of the air touch display (130), focusing (404) the objective (150) on the object (110) corresponding to the position of the recognised (403) finger (140), and capturing (405) and saving (406) the image focused (404) on the object (110) corresponding to the position of the recognised (403) finger (140), when a movement of the finger (140) towards the surface of the air touch display (130) is detected by the air touch display (130). Further, a computer program product and an arrangement (500) for performing the method is disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and computer program product. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to capturing an image of an object using a camera unit including an air touch display and an objective lens. Background technique [0002] Portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, handheld game consoles, personal digital assistants (PDAs), electronic books, laptop computers, portable media players or similar devices may often include a camera unit. Such portable electronic devices, including video cameras, are capable of performing a variety of functions. For example, such a camera can be used to take pictures or to record a movie, thereby replacing, for example, a digital still camera and / or a digital video recorder. Portable electronic devices including cameras may also be adapted to communicate in wireless communication networks, such as having built-in cameras (or even several cameras (e.g., two cameras, ...
