[0057] Figure 8 This is a block diagram illustrating an apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment. Detailed Implementation

[0058] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0059] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a shooting method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the shooting method is used in electronic devices and includes the following steps.

[0060] In step S11, in response to the shooting operation of the third-party application's shooting interface, the third-party application sends a data processing request to the framework layer of the operating system. The data processing request is a request to process the initial image data captured by the functional camera.

[0061] The electronic device may include an operating system, a functional camera with defined features, and third-party applications configured in its application layer. The operating system may be, for example, Android, iOS, or Linux. The third-party applications may be, for example, third-party camera apps such as Meitu Xiu Xiu, BeautyCam, or Camera FV5, or any application capable of accessing camera functions.

[0062] For example, a functional camera may include at least one of an ultra-wide-angle camera, a telephoto camera, a super telephoto camera, and a macro camera.

[0063] In step S12, the framework layer sends a data processing request to the hardware abstraction layer of the operating system.

[0064] In step S13, the hardware abstraction layer processes the initial image data according to the data processing request to obtain the target image data and sends the target image data to the third-party application.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, in response to a shooting operation on the shooting interface of a third-party application, the third-party application can send a processing request to the hardware abstraction layer of the operating system to process the initial image data captured by the functional camera. Then, the hardware abstraction layer processes the initial image data according to the data processing request to obtain target image data and sends the target image data to the third-party application, thereby enabling the third-party application to call the functional camera to take pictures and improving the richness of the pictures taken by the third-party application.

[0066] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a shooting method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the shooting method is used in electronic devices and includes the following steps.

[0067] In step S21, in response to the first operation on the third-party application, it is determined that the third-party application has permission to use the functional camera.

[0068] When the third-party application is a third-party camera application, the first operation could be, for example, opening the third-party application to run its functions. Alternatively, when the third-party application is an application capable of accessing camera functions, the first operation could be either invoking the shooting function through the third-party application or allowing the third-party application to enter the shooting interface.

[0069] In one implementation, in response to a first operation on a third-party application, a request to use the functional camera can be sent to the operating system's framework layer. Based on the request, the framework layer grants the third-party application access to the functional camera, thus enabling the third-party application to use the camera. Users can then use the camera to take photos, enhancing the richness of images captured by the third-party application.

[0070] The operating system's application layer includes a camera software development kit (SDK), third-party applications integrate the SDK, and the framework layer includes a camera permission module.

[0071] For example, the following methods can be used to determine whether a third-party application has permission to use the camera:

[0072] Send a camera permission query request to the camera permission module via the SDK;

[0073] Based on the query request, the camera permission module determines whether the third-party application has permission to use the functional camera and returns a permission confirmation message to the third-party application.

[0074] In step S22, a request to use the functional camera is sent to the framework layer of the operating system.

[0075] In step S23, the framework layer grants third-party applications access to the camera functionality based on the usage request.

[0076] In step S24, in response to the shooting operation of the third-party application's shooting interface, the third-party application sends a data processing request to the framework layer of the operating system. The data processing request is a request to process the initial image data captured by the functional camera.

[0077] In step S25, the hardware abstraction layer processes the initial image data according to the data processing request to obtain the target image data and sends the target image data to the third-party application.

[0078] In cases where there are multiple functional cameras, granting third-party applications access to these functional cameras also includes granting third-party applications access to the multi-camera simultaneous operation function for multiple functional cameras.

[0079] Among them, the multi-camera simultaneous activation function can simultaneously acquire and display images captured by each selected camera.

[0080] The data processing request may include a request to process selected initial image data, including first initial image data acquired by a first functional camera and second initial image data acquired by a second functional camera, wherein the first and second functional cameras are selected by the user from a plurality of functional cameras.

[0081] When a data processing request includes a request to process first initial image data acquired by a first functional camera and second initial image data acquired by a second functional camera, the hardware abstraction layer processes the first initial image data to obtain first target image data and processes the second initial image data to obtain second target image data, and sends the first target image data and the second target image data to a third-party application.

[0082] In an exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, in response to a shooting operation on the shooting interface of a third-party application, the third-party application determines that it has permission to use the functional camera. After sending a request to the framework layer of the operating system to use the functional camera, the framework layer can also open the multi-camera simultaneous shooting function for the functional camera to the third-party application according to the usage request. Based on this function, the third-party application can realize the shooting of multiple cameras simultaneously, thereby improving the richness and intelligence of the operation of the third-party application.

[0083] The following explanation uses the Android operating system of the electronic device as an example to illustrate the shooting method of this disclosure.

[0084] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an operating system software architecture according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0085] See Figure 3 An operating system's native architecture can include an application layer, framework layer, hardware abstraction layer, kernel layer, and hardware layer. The application layer contains numerous third-party applications and native applications for electronic devices. The framework layer includes various native application interfaces, such as camera application interfaces, application services (e.g., camera application services), and framework layer interfaces. The hardware abstraction layer includes hardware abstraction layer interfaces (e.g., HAL3.0), and the kernel layer includes various drivers (e.g., screen display drivers, audio drivers, etc.). The hardware layer includes the various hardware components of electronic devices (e.g., cameras with various functions).

[0086] This disclosure, based on the native system architecture, includes a camera software development kit (SDK) at the application layer, which is integrated into third-party applications. The operating system framework layer includes a camera permission module and a camera access module.

[0087] In response to a shooting operation on the camera interface of a third-party application, the SDK sends a camera permission query request to the camera permission module. Based on the query request, the camera permission module determines that the third-party application has the right to use the camera and returns a permission confirmation message to the third-party application. This permission confirmation message may include, for example, the identification data of the camera, so that the third-party application can send a request to the framework layer of the operating system to use the camera.

[0088] When there are multiple functional cameras, the camera permission module can also return a confirmation message to the third-party application to enable the multi-camera simultaneous operation function for multiple functional cameras.

[0089] The operating system's framework layer also includes a camera access module, which receives usage requests from third-party applications and grants those applications access to the camera based on those requests.

[0090] Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the application of the shooting method disclosed herein according to an exemplary embodiment.

[0091] See Figure 4 In response to a first operation on the third-party application, the third-party application sends a request to the operating system's framework layer to use the functional camera. The operating system's framework layer verifies the third-party application's permissions based on the query request. After confirming that the third-party application passes the verification, it sends permission confirmation information to the third-party application. Once it is determined that the third-party application has the permission to use the functional camera, the framework layer grants the third-party application permission to use the functional camera based on the usage request. Subsequently, in response to a shooting operation on the third-party application's shooting interface, the third-party application sends a data processing request to the operating system's framework layer. The framework layer sends the data processing request to the operating system's hardware abstraction layer. The hardware abstraction layer processes the initial image data according to the data processing request to obtain target image data and sends the target image data to the third-party application.

Users can then select Camera 1, Camera 2, or Camera 3 to capture images according to their shooting needs within the third-party application's interface.

[0094] exist Figure 6 The image shows a preview interface displayed on the third-party application's user interface, which allows simultaneous previewing of two functional cameras after the operating system opens up the multi-camera simultaneous operation function for functional cameras.
