[0054] The present invention provides a control method, a terminal and a readable storage medium, wherein Figure 1 , is a flow chart of a control method provided by a first embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the control method includes steps 101 to 103, the contents of which are as follows:

[0055] Step 101: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0056] The preset state may be a screen-off photography state or a locked screen photography state. The screen-off photography state may be a state in which the terminal performs a photography function in the screen-off state. The screen-off state may be a state in which the display screen of the terminal is always dark. The locked screen photography state may be a state in which the terminal performs a photography instruction in the locked screen state. The locked screen state may be a state in which the terminal needs to be unlocked to enter. The current state of the terminal may be determined by obtaining a state parameter of the terminal, and by determining the parameter, determining whether the terminal is currently in the screen-off photography state or the locked screen photography state. When it is determined that the current state of the terminal is not the preset state, the terminal may maintain the current state.

[0057] Step 102: Determine whether the current operation meets the preset conditions.

[0058] The current operation may be an operation triggered by a user, an operation triggered by other terminals through wireless communication or the like, or an operation triggered by a condition set by the terminal itself, which is not specifically limited here. The preset condition may be that the gesture of the operation is a preset gesture or the number of operations reaches a preset number, or the operation duration reaches a preset duration. The judgment method may be to detect whether the gesture of the operation is a preset gesture, for example: when the preset condition is the gesture of the operation, the preset operation gesture is an "OK" gesture, and the gesture of the current operation is recognized as an "OK" gesture, then it can be determined that the current operation meets the preset condition, and the corresponding operation is triggered. For another example, when the preset condition is the number of operations, the preset number is 3 times, when the current operation is repeated 3 times, it can be determined that the current operation meets the preset condition and the corresponding operation is triggered. In addition, when the preset condition is the operation duration, the preset operation duration is 20 minutes, if the current operation time reaches 20 minutes, it can be determined that the current operation meets the preset condition. When it is determined that the current operation of the terminal does not meet the preset condition, the terminal can maintain the current state.

[0059] Step 103: If yes, execute the preset control operation.

[0060] The preset control operation may be exiting photography or stopping photography, the exiting photography may be exiting the photography interface or function, and the stopping photography may be stopping video shooting or exiting related functions. In the previous step, if the current operation is determined to meet the preset conditions, the execution instruction is triggered, see Fig. 9 , the terminal starts to execute preset control operations such as exiting photography and stopping shooting.

[0061] In the control method provided in this embodiment, by controlling the current operation of the terminal, when the preset conditions of the current operation are met, the preset control operation is executed to control the terminal. Through the above control method, excessive use of the terminal can be effectively controlled, and the situation of multiple startups of the terminal due to accidental touches can also be effectively reduced, thereby reducing the problems of terminal memory being occupied, heating caused by multiple startups of the terminal, and excessive power consumption caused by the above two situations.

[0062] The present invention also provides a second embodiment, the flow chart of which is shown in FIG. Figure 2 In this embodiment, the control method includes steps 201 to 204, wherein the parts that are the same as those in the above embodiment will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0063] Step 201: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0064] Step 202: Determine whether the number of times the camera is started reaches a first preset number

[0065] The photographing may be used as a type of operation, and the photographing activation times may be the number of times the photographing device of the terminal is activated. The first preset number may be a preset number of photographing activations. For example, when the first preset number is 3, when the photographing activation times reaches 3, it can be determined that the photographing activation times have reached the first preset number, and step 2041 is executed.

[0066] Step 203: Determine whether the number of image capture times reaches a second preset number.

[0067] The image capturing may also be used as a type of operation, the image capturing times may be the number of times the image capturing module of the terminal captures images, and the second preset times may be the preset number of times the terminal captures images. For example, when the second preset times is 5, when the image capturing times reaches 5, it can be determined that the image capturing times reaches the second preset times, and step 2041 is executed. If not, step 2042 is executed.

[0068] According to different judgment results of the above steps, step 204 includes step 2041 and step 2042, and the steps are as follows:

[0069] Step 2041: Execute a preset control operation.

[0070] The control operation may be to exit the photo shooting or stop the photo shooting, the exit from the photo shooting may be to exit the photo shooting interface or function, and the stop of the photo shooting may be to stop the video shooting or exit the related function. When in the above steps, it is determined that the photo shooting start times have reached the first preset times or the image shooting times have reached the second preset times, see Fig. 9 , the corresponding trigger terminal executes the control operation, exits the photo-taking or stops shooting.

[0071] Step 2042: The terminal maintains the current state.

[0072] The current state may be a preset state, or a photo taking state, or a shooting state, which needs to be determined according to the state of the terminal and is not limited here. For example, when it is determined that the current state of the terminal is not a preset state, the terminal continues to maintain the current state; when it is determined that the number of image shooting times does not reach a second preset number, the terminal maintains the current image shooting state.

[0073] Compared with the above embodiment, in this embodiment, it is determined whether the number of times the terminal starts photographing and the number of times it takes images reach a predetermined number. When the predetermined number is reached, a preset control operation is triggered to exit photographing or stop photographing.

[0074] See also Figure 3 , is a flow chart of a photographing method according to a third embodiment of the present invention, wherein the photographing method comprises steps 301 to 306, wherein the parts which are the same as those in the above embodiments are not described in detail in this embodiment.

[0075] Step 301: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0076] Step 302: Determine whether the number of camera startup times reaches a first preset number.

[0077] Step 303: Determine whether the storage capacity for storing the captured images reaches a preset storage threshold.

[0078] The storage capacity for storing photographed images may be the storage capacity of the terminal or the storage capacity of the folder created for starting the photographing operation, which is not specifically limited here. The preset storage threshold may be a preset upper limit of the storage capacity for storing photographed images. For example, in a possible implementation, the storage capacity threshold is 1G. When the capacity for storing the photographed pictures and / or video data reaches the storage capacity threshold of 1G during the operation, it can be determined that the storage capacity for storing photographed images has reached the preset storage threshold, and step 3051 can be executed. If not, step 3052 can be executed.

[0079] Step 304: Determine whether the number of image capture times reaches a second preset number.

[0080] According to the judgment results of the above steps, step 305 may include step 3051 and step 3052, and the steps are as follows:

[0081] Step 3051: Output a prompt message to prompt the user to unlock the device to continue the operation.

[0082] This step can be triggered when, in the above steps, it is determined that the number of camera startups has reached the first preset number of times, the number of image captures has reached the second preset number of times, or the storage capacity for storing captured images has reached the preset storage threshold. The prompt information can be one or more of text information, symbol information, and audio and video information. The prompt information is used to prompt the user to unlock the device to continue the operation. Figure 8 The reminder may be in the form of a pop-up dialog window, a voice reminder, or a vibration reminder, which is not limited here.

[0083] Step 3052: The terminal maintains the current state.

[0084] Step 306: Perform corresponding processing according to the received feedback operation.

[0085] When the user performs a feedback operation on the reminder, the terminal receives the feedback operation information and performs corresponding processing, and the corresponding processing may be guiding the customer to unlock the device.

[0086] In this embodiment, by adding a judgment on whether the storage capacity for storing photographed images reaches a preset storage threshold, the storage capacity generated by user operations is limited, which can prevent the user from over-operating or causing storage space occupation problems due to accidental touches.

[0087] See also Figure 4 , is a flow chart of a photographing method according to a fourth embodiment of the present invention, wherein the photographing method comprises steps 401 to 406, wherein the same parts as those in the above embodiments are not described in detail in this embodiment.

[0088] Step 401: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0089] Step 402: Determine whether the photo-taking activation times reaches a first preset times.

[0090] Step 403: Determine whether the capacity of the captured image reaches a preset limit threshold.

[0091] The image capture capacity may be the size of the storage capacity occupied by the image or video captured by the camera, and the preset limit threshold may be the upper limit value of the storage capacity occupied by the image or video captured, for example: Figure 8 When the preset limit threshold is 65M and the storage capacity occupied by the image captured this time is 70M, it is determined that the capacity of the captured image reaches the preset limit threshold, and step 4051 is executed, otherwise step 4052 is executed.

[0092] Step 404: Determine whether the number of times of capturing images reaches a second preset number.

[0093] According to the judgment results of the above steps, step 405 may include step 4051 and step 4052, and the steps are as follows:

[0094] Step 4051: Output a prompt message to prompt the user to unlock the device to continue the operation.

[0095] This step may be triggered when, in the above steps, it is determined that the number of camera start times has reached a first preset number or the number of image capture times has reached a second preset number or the capacity of captured images has reached a preset limit threshold.

[0096] Step 4052: The terminal maintains the current state.

[0097] Step 406: Perform corresponding processing according to the received feedback operation.

[0098] In this embodiment, by adding a function to judge the capacity of the captured image and judging whether the size of the photo or video file captured this time has reached the upper limit, video shooting problems caused by excessive video shooting by the user or accidental touches can be effectively avoided, thereby solving the problems of device storage capacity occupation, device heating, and excessive power consumption caused by these problems.

[0099] See also Figure 5 , is a flow chart of a control method of a fifth embodiment provided by the present invention, wherein the control method includes steps 501 to 506, wherein the parts that are the same as those of the above embodiments are not repeated in this embodiment.

[0100] Step 501: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0101] Step 502: Determine whether the photo-taking activation times reaches a first preset times.

[0102] Step 503: Determine whether the camera parameters have reached a preset parameter threshold.

[0103] The camera parameters may be specific parameters of the camera when framing in the photo mode. The camera parameters may include focal length, exposure, etc. The preset parameter threshold may be one or more parameter limit values ​​of the camera, for example: Fig.10 When the parameter focal length of the camera is less than 2 cm, the preset parameter threshold may be 2 cm. That is, when the focal length of the camera is less than 2 cm, it is determined that the parameter of the camera reaches the preset parameter threshold, and step 5051 is executed, otherwise step 5052 is executed.

[0104] Step 504: Determine whether the number of times of capturing images reaches a second preset number.

[0105] According to the judgment results of the above steps, step 505 may include step 5051 and step 5052, and the steps are as follows:

[0106] Step 5051: Output a prompt message to prompt the user to unlock the device to continue the operation.

[0107] This step may be triggered when, in the above steps, it is determined that the number of camera start times has reached a first preset number or the number of image capture times has reached a second preset number or the capacity of captured images has reached a preset limit threshold.

[0108] Step 5052: The terminal maintains the current state.

[0109] Step 506: Perform corresponding processing according to the received feedback operation.

[0110] In this embodiment, it is determined whether the camera parameters (such as focal length or exposure) of the camera in the photo mode meet the preset parameter thresholds, so as to determine whether the entry into the photo mode is an accidental touch. However, when it is determined that the photo taking is started by an accidental touch, the photo taking is turned off in time to avoid problems such as heating of the device and excessive power consumption caused by this.

[0111] See also Figure 6 , is a flow chart of a control method of a sixth embodiment provided by the present invention, wherein the control method includes steps 601 to 605, wherein the parts that are the same as those of the above embodiments are not repeated in this embodiment.

[0112] Step 601: Determine whether the current state of the terminal is a preset state.

[0113] Step 602: Determine whether the photo-taking activation times reaches a first preset times.

[0114] Step 603: Determine whether the clarity of the captured image meets a preset clarity threshold.

[0115] The clarity of the captured image refers to the clarity of each detail and its boundary in the picture or video taken by the camera. The clarity of the image can be quantified using image feature parameters; the preset clarity threshold can be the quantified image clarity limit value, for example: Fig.11 When the lower limit value of the clarity is 5 and the clarity of the photographed image is 2, it is determined that the clarity of the photographed image does not meet the preset clarity threshold, and step 6041 is executed, otherwise step 6042 is executed.

[0116] Step 604 includes sub-steps 6041 and 6042, and the steps are as follows:

[0117] Step 6041: Determine whether the number of times of capturing images reaches a second preset number.

[0118] Step 6042: Delete the captured image and / or output a prompt message.

[0119] Deleting the captured image may include erasing the data of the captured photo or video that does not meet the clarity requirement on the device, or hiding or transferring the photo or video from a folder and displaying or restoring it upon user selection.

[0120] According to the judgment results of the above steps, step 605 may include sub-step 6051 and step 6052, and the steps are as follows:

[0121] Step 6051: Exit or stop taking photos.

[0122] This step may be triggered when, in the above steps, it is determined that the number of camera start times has reached a first preset number or the number of image capture times has reached a second preset number or the capacity of captured images has reached a preset limit threshold.

[0123] Step 6052: The terminal maintains the current state.

[0124] In this embodiment, by judging the clarity of the captured image, low-quality photos or videos can be determined and deleted, which can reduce the storage space occupied by such photos or videos and effectively solve the memory usage problem.

[0125] The present invention also provides a terminal, see Figure 7The terminal 700 includes a processor 701, an image sensor 702, a memory 703 and a communication bus 704, wherein the communication bus 704 is used to realize the connection between the processor 701, the image sensor 702 and the memory 703; wherein the processor 701 is used to determine whether the number of times of starting to take pictures reaches a preset number of times threshold; and when the number of times of starting to take pictures reaches the preset number of times threshold, send an instruction to stop taking pictures; when the number of times of starting to take pictures does not reach the preset number of times threshold, send to keep the original state of the terminal. The image sensor 702 is used to receive the instruction to stop taking pictures, and turn off the camera to stop acquiring images; and, receive the instruction to continue taking pictures, and continue to acquire images. The memory 703 is used to store the information of the number of pictures, the preset number of times information, the instruction information of stopping taking pictures, the instruction information of continuing taking pictures and the image information acquired by the image sensor.
