Problems solved by technology

However, when an electronic device with a manually rotating camera is used to take pictures, the user can only manually control the rotation of the camera, which makes the efficiency of controlling the rotation of the camera low, resulting in poor practicability of the electronic device
At present, there is still a lack of a method to control the automatic rotation of the camera

[0018] figure 1 It is an implementation flowchart of the method for controlling the automatic rotation of the camera provided in the first embodiment of the present invention. The method can be executed by a device for controlling the rotation of the camera. The device can be implemented by software and / or hardware, and can be used as an electronic device Part of it is built into the electronic device. The implementation process includes:

[0019] Step 11. In the camera mode, obtain an instruction to rotate the camera.

[0020] When an electronic device such as a smart phone or a portable camera is in a camera mode, obtain an instruction to rotate the camera according to a user operation. For example, when the user presses the volume up key, the obtained rotating camera instruction is the first rotating instruction; when the user presses the volume down key, the obtained rotating camera instruction is the second rotating instruction; When the screen of the device slides up,...

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention relates to the technical field of cameras of electronic equipment, in particular to a method and electronic equipment for controlling a camera to rotate automatically. The method comprises the steps of obtaining instructions for rotating the camera under a camera mode, and controlling the camera to rotate according to the instructions for rotating the camera. The automatic rotating of the camera can be controlled through the method according to the instructions for rotating the camera, and therefore the automatic rotating of the camera in the electronic equipment is achieved. When the camera in the electronic equipment is utilized for taking a picture, the rotating of the camera does not need to be controlled manually, and therefore the practicability of the electronic equipment is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of cameras of electronic devices, and in particular, to a method for controlling automatic rotation of a camera and electronic devices. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of various electronic devices such as smartphones and cameras, electronic devices have been widely used in various fields of life and work, and the camera function has also become a common function of electronic devices. [0003] In order to reduce the production cost of electronic devices, electronic devices with manually rotating cameras have been developed and produced. However, when an electronic device with a manually rotating camera is used to take pictures, the user can only manually control the rotation of the camera, which makes the efficiency of controlling the rotation of the camera low, which in turn leads to poor practicability of the electronic device. At present, there is still a l...
