Embodiment Construction
[0012]Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram illustrating an image capturing device 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The image capturing device 10 can be utilized in all kinds of electronic devices, such as notebooks, tablets, desktops, mobile phones, wearable devices, smart TVs, but not limited thereto. The image capturing device 10 includes an image sensing unit 102, a determination unit 104 and an output unit 106.
[0013]The image sensing unit 102 is utilized for capturing images. The image sensing unit 102 can be a charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor, a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor, or other image sensors. The image captured by the image sensing unit 102 can be raw images. The image captured by the image sensing unit 102 can be outputted directly to other external devices. The image captured by the image sensing unit 102 can also be provided to an image signal processor (ISP) of the image capturing device 10, such that t...

An image capturing device is provided. The image capturing device includes an image sensing circuit, a determination circuit and an output circuit. The image sensing circuit is utilized for capturing a first test image at a first time point and capturing a second test image at a second time point. The determination circuit is utilized for calculating a first image feature value associated with a color value of the first test image and a second image feature value associated with a color value of the second test image, calculating a difference value between the first image feature value and the second image feature value and comparing the difference value with a threshold value to generate a determination result. The output circuit is utilized for outputting the images generated by the image capturing device according to the determination result.
