Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic technology, and more particularly to a method for sharing images and an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of the Internet and electronic devices, multiple images can be shared between electronic devices, satisfying users' social needs for sharing images.

[0003] In related technologies, user 1 often uses electronic device 1 to share multiple pictures taken while visiting a city / location / attraction with user 2's electronic device 2, enabling electronic device 2 to share image data and shooting locations of multiple pictures and support querying each picture on an electronic map.

[0004] However, in the relevant technologies, the way electronic device 2 displays multiple pictures does not allow users to personally experience the process of taking multiple pictures, and it is not of any reference value for users to plan routes to visit the cities / locations / attractions corresponding to multiple pictures. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application provides a method for sharing images and an electronic device that integrates a tour route with multiple images in terms of time and location, enabling segmented display of multiple images according to the tour route. This allows users to intuitively and immersively browse multiple images according to the tour route.

[0006] In one aspect, this application provides a method for sharing images, applied to a first electronic device.

[0007] The method includes:

[0008] When it is determined that multiple images need to be shared, based on the image information of the multiple images and the user's tour route when taking the multiple images, multiple segmented routes and the image information of the associated images of each segmented route are determined. The image information of the multiple images includes at least the image data, shooting time and shooting location of each image.

[0009] Based on the image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route, a data package to be shared is generated;

[0010] The data packet to be shared is transmitted to the second electronic device so that the second electronic device can parse the data packet to be shared and display multiple segmented routes and the associated image of each segmented route.

[0011] Using the image sharing method provided in the first aspect, when the first electronic device determines that multiple images need to be shared, it can determine multiple segmented routes and image information of associated images for each segmented route based on the image information of the multiple images and the user's browsing route when taking the multiple images. The browsing route can be integrated with the multiple images in terms of time and location. Based on the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, the first electronic device can generate a data packet to be shared, facilitating storage and transmission. The first electronic device can transmit the data packet to be shared to a second electronic device, providing a new way of image sharing and enhancing users' interest and enthusiasm for sharing images. Consequently, the second electronic device parses the data packet to be shared to obtain the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route. Based on the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, the second electronic device can display the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, allowing for segmented display of multiple images according to the browsing route. This facilitates an intuitive and immersive browsing experience for users following the browsing route.

[0012] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0013] Obtain navigation information for the user's vehicle while multiple images are being taken;

[0014] Based on the vehicle's navigation information, determine the vehicle's driving route;

[0015] The driving route of the vehicle will be used as the tour route.

[0016] Thus, the first electronic device can fuse the vehicle's driving route with multiple images in terms of time and location to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0017] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0018] Obtain movement information of the device used by the user when taking multiple pictures;

[0019] Filter out invalid information from the device's movement information to obtain the filtered device movement information;

[0020] By fitting the filtered device movement information with the navigation information of the standard route, a tour route is obtained.

[0021] Therefore, the first electronic device can, based on the valid movement route of the device, fuse the movement route of the device with multiple images in terms of time and location to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0022] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0023] Based on the image information of multiple images, image filtering and location aggregation are performed on multiple images to obtain multiple points of interest.

[0024] By fitting multiple points of interest for photography using navigation information from standard routes, a tour route is obtained.

[0025] In one possible design, a tour route is obtained by fitting multiple points of interest (POIs) using navigation information from a standard route, including:

[0026] Based on the time of each shooting point of interest, the time of multiple shooting points of interest is averaged to obtain the median time of multiple shooting points of interest.

[0027] Based on the intermediate time of multiple shooting points of interest, the time ordering of multiple shooting points of interest is obtained;

[0028] Based on the temporal order of multiple points of interest (POIs), the starting and ending positions are determined by using the positions of two POIs that are adjacent in time. The routes between these POIs are calculated using navigation information from standard routes, and the multiple routes are then merged to obtain the tour route.

[0029] Therefore, the first electronic device can fuse the tour route obtained from multiple images with the time and location of the multiple images to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0030] In one possible design, based on image information from multiple images and the user's browsing route when taking multiple images, multiple segmented routes and image information of associated images for each segmented route are determined, including:

[0031] Based on the image information of multiple images, image filtering and location aggregation are performed on multiple images to obtain multiple points of interest.

[0032] Based on multiple points of interest for shooting, the tour route is divided, and the starting and ending positions of every two adjacent points of interest for shooting are used as the starting and ending positions to obtain multiple segmented routes.

[0033] Based on the image information of multiple images, each segment of the route is associated with multiple images to obtain the image information of the associated images for each segment of the route.

[0034] Therefore, by taking the points of interest as the starting and ending positions, the first electronic device can determine multiple segmented routes and the image information of the associated images for each segmented route.

[0035] In one possible design, based on image information from multiple images, image filtering and location aggregation are performed on the multiple images to obtain multiple points of interest, including:

[0036] Images that were taken in the same area are grouped together to obtain multiple groups of images;

[0037] Based on the image information of each group of images, the location and time of multiple groups of images are averaged to obtain a shooting point of interest corresponding to each group of images, as well as the location and time of each shooting point of interest.

[0038] In one possible design, when the tour route is obtained from a vehicle driven by the user while taking multiple images, the method further includes:

[0039] The parking locations along the tour route will be designated as dividing points.

[0040] Determine whether there are any points of interest within the area to which the dividing point belongs;

[0041] If there are points of interest within the area to which the dividing point belongs, the dividing point will be designated as a new point of interest.

[0042] If there is no point of interest to be photographed within the area to which the dividing point belongs, the dividing point is determined not to be a point of interest to be photographed.

[0043] Therefore, the first electronic device can quickly and accurately acquire multiple points of interest for shooting.

[0044] In one possible design, the method further includes, before generating the data packet to be shared:

[0045] Displays multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route.

[0046] This allows users to preview the effect of multiple images being displayed according to the tour route.

[0047] In one possible design, the start and end positions of each segmented route are two temporally adjacent points of interest (POIs). Each POI is obtained based on image information from multiple images, through image filtering and location aggregation. The display then shows multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, including:

[0048] In the electronic map, each segmented route is displayed between two adjacent points of interest (POIs) using lines with arrows. The arrows on each line point from the earlier POI to the later POI. An icon for the associated image of each segmented route is displayed within the area of ​​each POI.

[0049] This provides a possible way to display multiple images and tour routes.

[0050] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0051] Reverse geocoding is performed on the shooting locations of the associated images for each segmented route to determine the location name of each point of interest.

[0052] The location name of each point of interest is displayed within the area to which it belongs.

[0053] This allows users to quickly identify each point of interest for shooting.

[0054] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0055] Upon receiving an action on the icon of an associated image for a segmented route, a user interface is displayed, which allows browsing each image in the associated images of the segmented route.

[0056] Therefore, in addition to displaying multiple pictures and tour routes, it can also display related pictures of individual points of interest, achieving the effect of on-site navigation.

[0057] In one possible design, when a photo album application is installed in the first electronic device, the method further includes:

[0058] Display a control within a user interface of the photo album application;

[0059] After receiving the operation triggered on the control, it is determined that multiple images need to be shared.

[0060] This provides an entry point to trigger the first electronic device to share multiple images using a new image-sharing method.

[0061] Secondly, this application provides a method for sharing images, applied to a second electronic device.

[0062] The method includes:

[0063] The data packet to be shared is obtained from the first electronic device. The data packet to be shared is generated by the first electronic device based on the image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route. The image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route is determined by the first electronic device based on the image information of multiple images and the tour route when the user takes multiple images. The image information of multiple images includes at least the image data, shooting time and shooting location of each image.

[0064] The data packet to be shared is parsed to obtain multiple segmented routes and image information of the associated images of each segmented route;

[0065] Based on the image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route, the system displays multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route.

[0066] Using the image sharing method provided in the second aspect, the second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and associated images of each segmented route based on image information. It can display multiple images in segments according to the tour route, which is beneficial for users to intuitively and immersively browse multiple images according to the tour route.

[0067] In one possible design, the start and end positions of each segmented route are two temporally adjacent points of interest (POIs). Each POI is obtained based on image information from multiple images, through image filtering and location aggregation. The display then shows multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, including:

[0068] This allows users to browse multiple images according to a tour route.

[0069] In the electronic map, each segmented route is displayed between two adjacent points of interest (POIs) using lines with arrows. The arrows on each line point from the earlier POI to the later POI. An icon for the associated image of each segmented route is displayed within the area of ​​each POI.

[0070] This provides a possible way to display multiple images and tour routes.

[0071] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0072] Reverse geocoding is performed on the shooting locations of the associated images for each segmented route to determine the location name of each point of interest.

[0073] The location name of each point of interest is displayed within the area to which it belongs.

[0074] This allows users to quickly identify each point of interest for shooting.

[0075] In one possible design, the method also includes:

[0076] Upon receiving an action on the icon of an associated image for a segmented route, a user interface is displayed, which allows browsing each image in the associated images of the segmented route.

[0077] Therefore, in addition to displaying multiple pictures and tour routes, it can also display related pictures of individual points of interest, achieving the effect of on-site navigation.

[0078] In one possible design, when a photo album application is installed on the second electronic device, multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route are displayed, including:

[0079] Display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route within a single user interface of the photo album application.

[0080] This provides an entry point for triggering a second electronic device to display multiple images using a new image-sharing method.

"And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can mean: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following" or similar expressions refer to any combination of these items, including any combination of single or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b, or c alone can mean: a alone, b alone, c alone, a combination of a and b, a combination of a and c, a combination of b and c, or a, b, and c, where a, b, and c can be single or multiple. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The terms “center,” “longitudinal,” “lateral,” “up,” “down,” “left,” “right,” “front,” and “rear,” etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application.

[0097] This application provides a method and electronic device for sharing images. It can integrate a user's tour route when taking multiple pictures into the multiple pictures to generate a data package to be shared. This facilitates sharing the tour route and multiple pictures with other users, providing a new way of sharing images and enhancing users' interest and enthusiasm in sharing images. Based on the data package to be shared, multiple pictures can be displayed on an electronic map in segments according to the tour route, realizing a real-world visual browsing of multiple pictures. This allows users to intuitively and immersively browse multiple pictures according to the tour route.

[0098] In addition, based on the data package to be shared, it is also possible to conduct on-site navigation tours of associated images of individual shooting locations in the tour route, which is conducive to efficient and accurate experience based on the existing experience of the sharing users.

[0099] Based on the foregoing description, the following embodiments of this application will take a device with multiple electronic devices as an example, and, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and application scenarios, will elaborate on the image sharing method provided by this application.

[0100] For ease of explanation, the multiple electronic devices in this application are illustrated using the first electronic device and the second electronic device as examples. The first electronic device and the second electronic device are communicatively connected. The communication connection mentioned in this application may include wired communication connections and / or wireless communication connections. Wired communication connections may employ coaxial cable, optical fiber, digital subscriber line (DSL), etc., while wireless communication connections may employ Bluetooth, infrared, Wi-Fi, microwave, etc.

[0101] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a signaling interaction diagram of an image sharing method provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0102] like Figure 1 As shown, the image sharing method of this application may include:

[0103] S101. When the first electronic device determines that multiple pictures need to be shared, it determines multiple segmented routes and the image information of the associated pictures of each segmented route based on the image information of the multiple pictures and the user's tour route when taking the multiple pictures. The image information of the multiple pictures includes at least the image data, shooting time and shooting location of each picture.

[0104] The multiple images mentioned in this application can include two or more images, which typically represent photos taken by a user while visiting one or more attractions / locations in a city. For example, multiple images could be photos taken by a user while visiting various attractions in a city.

[0105] In addition to the image data, shooting time and shooting location of each image, the image information of multiple images can also include the shooting device identifier of each image. The shooting device identifier can be represented by the device model or device name, such as device ID.

[0106] The first electronic device may determine that it needs to share multiple pictures after receiving an operation from the user on the first electronic device, or it may determine that it needs to share multiple pictures after receiving a request from the second electronic device. This application does not limit this.

[0107] In some embodiments, when a photo album application is installed on the first electronic device, the first electronic device may display a control in a user interface of the photo album application. This control is used to trigger the first electronic device to initiate a photo sharing function. This application does not limit the specific implementation of the user interface and the control.

[0108] Upon receiving an operation triggered on the control, the first electronic device can determine that multiple images need to be shared. The operation triggered on the control may include, but is not limited to, clicks, double-clicks, and long presses. Therefore, the first electronic device can execute step S101.

[0109] It should be noted that, in addition to photo album applications, system applications or third-party applications installed on the first electronic device can also activate the image sharing function of the first electronic device, enabling the first electronic device to execute the content of embodiment S101.

[0110] Therefore, when it is determined that multiple images need to be shared, the first electronic device can obtain image information and browsing routes for multiple images.

[0111] Typically, electronic devices store not only image data but also the time and location of the image capture. For example, image files may store extended information (such as EXIF ​​information) in formats like JPG. This extended information records image attribute information and image data, and the attribute information may include, but is not limited to, the camera's identifier, the capture time, and the capture location.

[0112] Based on the above description, the first electronic device can obtain image information of multiple images by parsing image files, namely the image data, shooting time, and shooting location of each image.

[0113] In addition to acquiring image information from multiple pictures, the first electronic device can also determine the tour route. The tour route is the actual route taken by the user when capturing the multiple pictures.

[0114] Therefore, based on the image information of multiple images and the tour route, the first electronic device can divide the tour route into multiple segmented routes and determine the image information of the associated images for each segmented route.

[0115] In conclusion, the first electronic device is well-positioned to provide a new way of sharing images.

[0116] S102, the first electronic device generates a data packet to be shared based on the image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route.

[0117] The first electronic device can generate a data packet to be shared based on multiple segmented routes and image information associated with each segmented route, using various methods. This application does not limit the specific implementation method of the data packet to be shared.

[0118] In some embodiments, the first electronic device can store navigation information for each segment of the route and the association between each segment and associated images in a configuration file. The first electronic device can then obtain image information containing multiple images and a data packet to be shared, facilitating data storage and transmission.

[0119] S103, The first electronic device transmits the data packet to be shared to the second electronic device.

[0120] The first electronic device can directly send the data packet to be shared to the second electronic device.

[0121] Alternatively, the first electronic device can send the data packet to be shared to a sharing platform (such as a server or other electronic device). The sharing platform is used for publicly viewing the data packet. Thus, the second electronic device can obtain the data to be shared from the sharing platform, achieving the purpose of the first electronic device transmitting the data packet to the second electronic device.

[0122] S104. The second electronic device parses the data packet to be shared to obtain multiple segmented routes and image information of the associated images of each segmented route.

[0123] After obtaining the data packet to be shared, the second electronic device can parse the data packet to be shared according to the generation method of the data packet to be shared in S102 to obtain multiple segmented routes and image information of the associated images of each segmented route.

[0124] In some embodiments, when the data packet to be shared includes image information of multiple images and a configuration file, the second electronic device can read the image information of multiple images and can read the navigation information of multiple segmented routes and the association between each segmented route and the associated image from the configuration file.

[0125] Therefore, based on the image information of multiple images, the navigation information of multiple segmented routes, and the association between each segmented route and the associated images, the second electronic device can associate multiple segmented routes with multiple images to obtain the image information of multiple segmented routes and the associated images of each segmented route.

[0126] S105, the second electronic device displays multiple segmented routes and their associated images based on image information of each segmented route and its associated images.

[0127] The second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and their associated images based on image information of each segmented route, thus enabling the visualization of multiple images using segmented routes and associated images.

[0128] In some embodiments, when a photo album application is installed on the second electronic device, the second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route in a user interface of the photo album application. This application does not limit the specific implementation of this user interface. For example, the user interface can be used to display an electronic map. Thus, the second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route on the electronic map, facilitating users to browse multiple images according to the tour route on the electronic map.

[0129] It should be noted that, in addition to photo album applications, system applications or third-party applications installed on the second electronic device can also display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route.

[0130] The image sharing method of this application, when a first electronic device determines that multiple images need to be shared, determines multiple segmented routes and image information of associated images for each segmented route based on the image information of the multiple images and the user's browsing route when taking the multiple images. This allows for the fusion of the browsing route with the multiple images in terms of time and location. Based on the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, the first electronic device can generate a data packet to be shared, facilitating storage and transmission. The first electronic device can transmit the data packet to a second electronic device, providing a new way of sharing images and enhancing users' interest and enthusiasm for sharing images. The second electronic device parses the data packet to be shared, obtaining the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route. Based on the image information of the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, the second electronic device can display the multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, allowing for segmented display of multiple images according to the browsing route. This facilitates an intuitive and immersive browsing experience for users following the browsing route.

[0131] Based on the foregoing description, the first electronic device may acquire the tour route in various ways, and the specific implementation method is not limited.

[0132] The following section details the specific implementation process of the first electronic device acquiring the tour route, using several different implementation methods.

[0133] In some embodiments, users often drive a vehicle while touring, and the vehicle's navigation information can accurately and completely record the user's tour route.

[0134] Based on the above description, the first electronic device can acquire navigation information of the vehicle driven by the user while taking multiple pictures. This application does not limit the specific implementation of the vehicle's navigation information. For example, the vehicle's navigation information can be a set of correspondences on electronic maps or latitude and longitude coordinates, and can be represented using methods such as tables, key-value pairs, or arrays.

[0135] For example, after a user finishes their tour, the vehicle can send its navigation information to the first electronic device. Alternatively, the vehicle can send its navigation information to the server, allowing the server to store the navigation information. The first electronic device can then retrieve the vehicle's navigation information from the server.

[0136] Therefore, based on the vehicle's navigation information, the first electronic device can determine the vehicle's driving route. This driving route can then be used as a tour route. Furthermore, the first electronic device can fuse the driving route with multiple images, combining time and location data to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0137] In other embodiments, when a user begins a tour, the device used by the user can turn on a switch to record the user's tour route while taking multiple pictures, so that the device can record the user's complete tour process.

[0138] The device can be a camera for taking multiple pictures, or it can be a user-carried device other than a camera; this application does not limit the scope of the application. For example, a user may carry a mobile phone and a watch; the mobile phone can take multiple pictures, and the watch can record the travel route.

[0139] Based on the above description, the first electronic device can acquire the device's movement information. This movement information can be used to indicate the device's movement route. This application does not limit the specific implementation of the device's movement information. For example, the device's movement information can be a set of correspondences on an electronic map or latitude and longitude coordinates, and it can be represented using methods such as tables, key-value pairs, or arrays.

[0140] Because users may take photos at a fixed location or move around while taking photos, the device's movement path may detour. Therefore, the first electronic device can filter out invalid information from the device's movement data, obtaining filtered movement information to ensure its validity. Invalid information can be understood as movement data resulting from detours. This corrects the device's movement path.

[0141] Therefore, by fitting the filtered movement information of the first electronic device with navigation information from a standard route, the first electronic device can determine a tour route. Subsequently, the first electronic device can fuse the device's movement route with multiple images in terms of time and location to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0142] The navigation information for the standard route is publicly available, and it can be used to indicate the standard route on the electronic map. The standard route can be understood as a route obtained by navigating on the electronic map based on the starting and ending positions in the device's movement information.

[0143] Please see Figures 2A-2B , Figures 2A-2B This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of a route provided in one embodiment of this application.

[0144] like Figure 2A As shown, route 11 is the movement route of the device before correction, and part of route 11 within box a has detoured, and part of route 11 within box b has detoured.

[0145] like Figure 2B As shown, Route 12 is the corrected movement route of the device, i.e., the tour route. The part of Route 12 within box a corrects the detour phenomenon, and the part of Route 12 within box b corrects the detour phenomenon.

[0146] In summary, the first electronic device can obtain an accurate tour route by correcting the device's movement path.

[0147] The first electronic device can correct its movement path in various ways.

[0148] The following details the specific implementation of how the first electronic device can correct the device's movement path.

[0149] Method 1: Distance comparison of split routes

[0150] The first electronic device can progressively divide the device's movement route into segments and determine whether the ratio between the distance of each segment and the distance of the standard route exceeds a preset ratio (e.g., 2:1). Here, the standard route can be a route obtained by navigating on an electronic map using the starting and ending positions of each segment.

[0151] If the error exceeds the limit, the first electronic device can determine that the currently segmented route may contain detours. Therefore, the first electronic device needs to correct the currently segmented route, which can be replaced with a standard route.

[0152] If the distance is not exceeded, the first electronic device can continue to analyze the next segment of the route until the distance between the last segment of the route in the device's movement path and the standard route is compared.

[0153] Thus, the first electronic device can determine the corrected movement path of the device as the tour route.

[0154] Please see Figures 3A-3B , Figures 3A-3B This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of a route provided in one embodiment of this application.

[0155] like Figure 3A As shown, route 21 is the movement route of the device before correction, and line segment AB in route 21 is a segment of the movement route of the device before correction. Line segment AB in route 21 shows a detour.

[0156] like Figure 3B As shown, Route 22 is the corrected movement route of the device, i.e., the tour route, and line segment AB in Route 22 is a segment of the corrected movement route of the device. Line segment AB in Route 22 corrects the detour phenomenon.

[0157] Method 2: Filtering the range of points of interest during shooting

[0158] The first electronic device can identify points of interest (POIs) by determining the main locations where the user lingers during browsing based on the shooting location of each of multiple images. Thus, the first electronic device can obtain multiple POIs.

[0159] Since there is a high probability of detours at the stopping locations, the first electronic device can correct the route within the area (e.g., 500 meters) of each point of interest by combining it with a standard route, thus obtaining the corrected movement route of the device. Here, the standard route can be a route obtained by navigation on an electronic map, using two adjacent points of interest at different times as the starting and ending points.

[0160] Thus, the first electronic device can determine the corrected movement path of the device as the tour route.

[0161] Please see Figures 4A-4B , Figures 4A-4B This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of a route provided in one embodiment of this application.

[0162] like Figure 4A As shown, route 31 is the movement route of the device before correction, and the part of route 31 within frame c is the route within the area of ​​a shooting point of interest before correction. The part of route 31 within frame c shows a detour.

[0163] like Figure 4B As shown, route 32 is the corrected movement route of the device, i.e. the tour route, and the part of route 32 within frame c is the corrected route within the area to which the point of interest belongs. The part of route 32 within frame c corrects the detour phenomenon.

[0164] In other embodiments, the first electronic device can perform image filtering and location aggregation on the multiple images based on the image information of the multiple images to obtain multiple points of interest for shooting, as well as the location and time of each point of interest.

[0165] The point of interest (POI) can be determined based on the main shooting locations (i.e., the positions mentioned above) among multiple images. For example, if at least one of the multiple images exists within a preset range, the first electronic device can determine the center of the preset range as the location of the POI, and determine the shooting time of the POI based on the shooting time of at least one of the aforementioned images.

[0166] Therefore, the first electronic device can fit multiple points of interest (POIs) using a standard route, based on the location and time of each captured point of interest, to obtain a tour route. The first electronic device can then fuse the tour route obtained from multiple images with the images in terms of time and location to generate a data packet to be shared.

[0167] Here, the standard route can be understood as a route obtained by navigating on an electronic map, with each pair of adjacent points of interest (POIs) as the starting and ending points. The adjacent POIs mentioned in this application can be understood as a combination of multiple POIs arranged in chronological order from earliest to latest.

[0168] In some embodiments, the first electronic device can average the position and time of multiple points of interest (POIs) based on the position and time of each POI to obtain the median time of the multiple POIs. Based on the median time of the multiple POIs, the first electronic device can then sort the multiple POIs by time to obtain a time ordering relationship between the multiple POIs.

[0169] The temporal order of the multiple shooting points can be used to indicate the order of each point of interest among the multiple shooting points of interest, either in the order of early to late or in the order of late to early.

[0170] Therefore, the first electronic device calculates the route between two adjacent shooting points of interest based on the time sequence of multiple shooting points of interest, using the positions of every two shooting points of interest that are adjacent in time as the starting and ending positions, and merges multiple routes to obtain the tour route.

[0171] In summary, the first electronic device can obtain a tour route based on publicly available standard routes. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of a route provided in one embodiment of this application.

[0172] like Figure 5 As shown, segmented routes 41, 42, and 43 can be combined into a single tour route.

[0173] Segment route 41 is formed by connecting boxes d1 and d2, and the direction of segment route 41 is from box d1 to box d2. Segment route 42 is formed by connecting boxes d2 and d3, and the direction of segment route 42 is from box d2 to box d3. Segment route 43 is formed by connecting boxes d3 and d4, and the direction of segment route 43 is from box d3 to box d4.

[0174] Among them, the geometric center of frame d1 is the shooting point of interest A, the geometric center of frame d2 is the shooting point of interest B, the geometric center of frame d4 is the shooting point of interest C, and the geometric center of frame d5 is the shooting point of interest D.

[0175] Furthermore, the time sequence of shooting points of interest A, B, C, and D is as follows: the time of shooting point A is earlier than the time of shooting point B, the time of shooting point B is earlier than the time of shooting point C, and the time of shooting point C is earlier than the time of shooting point D.

[0176] Based on the description of S101 above, the first electronic device can use various methods to determine multiple segmented routes and image information of associated images for each segmented route based on image information of multiple images and the tour route.

[0177] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating an embodiment of the image sharing method provided in this application.

[0178] like Figure 6 As shown, the image sharing method of this application may include:

[0179] S201. The first electronic device performs image filtering and location aggregation on multiple images based on the image information of multiple images to obtain multiple points of interest for shooting.

[0180] The specific methods for capturing points of interest can be found in the content mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0181] In some embodiments, the first electronic device may employ a density-based clustering algorithm (such as DBSCAN (density-based spatial clustering of applications with noise)) to group images whose shooting locations are within the same region based on the shooting location of each image in multiple images, thereby achieving image aggregation. The first electronic device can then obtain multiple groups of images centered on different regions, where each group of images consists of images within the same region.

[0182] This application does not limit the size of the region corresponding to each group of images. Furthermore, the size of the region corresponding to each group of images may be the same or different.

[0183] Therefore, based on the image information of each group of images, the first electronic device can perform position and time averaging on multiple groups of images to determine a shooting point of interest corresponding to each group of images, as well as the position and time of each shooting point of interest.

[0184] Below, in conjunction with Figures 7A-7B This section details the specific process by which the first electronic device acquires multiple points of interest for shooting.

[0185] Please see Figures 7A-7B , Figures 7A-7B This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of multiple image aggregation according to an embodiment of this application. For ease of explanation, the following multiple images are used as an example: 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, 4.jpg, 5.jpg, 6.jpg, 7.jpg, 8.jpg, 9.jpg, 10.jpg, 11.jpg, and 12.jpg.

[0186] like Figure 7A As shown, 1.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 11, 2.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 12, 3.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 13, and 4.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 14.

[0187] Boxes 11, 12, 13, and 14 are all within region a1. Therefore, 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, and 4.jpg can be considered as a group. This group of images corresponds to the shooting of point of interest A. The shooting time of point of interest A can be the middle time of this group of images, and the shooting location of point of interest A can be the center of region a1.

[0188] The image 5.jpg was taken from the geometric center of frame 21, the image 6.jpg was taken from the geometric center of frame 22, and the image 7.jpg was taken from the geometric center of frame 23.

[0189] Boxes 21, 22, and 23 are all within region a2. Therefore, 5.jpg, 6.jpg, and 7.jpg can be considered a group. This group of images corresponds to the shooting of point of interest B. The shooting time of point of interest B can be the middle time of this group of images, and the shooting location of point of interest B can be the center of region a2.

[0190] The image for 8.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 31, the image for 9.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 32, and the image for 10.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 13.

[0191] Boxes 31, 32, and 33 are all within region a3. Therefore, 8.jpg, 9.jpg, and 10.jpg can be considered as a group. This group of images corresponds to the point of interest C. The time when point of interest C was captured can be the middle time of this group of images, and the position of point of interest C can be the center of region a3.

[0192] The image for 11.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 41, and the image for 12.jpg was taken at the geometric center of frame 42.

[0193] Both boxes 41 and 42 are within region a4. Therefore, 11.jpg and 12.jpg can be considered as a group. This group of images corresponds to the point of interest D. The time when point of interest D was captured can be the middle time of this group of images, and the position of point of interest D can be the center of region a4.

[0194] Among them, the sizes of regions a1, a2, a3 and a4 are different.

[0195] In summary, the first electronic device can obtain multiple points of interest for shooting, as well as the location and time of each point of interest.

[0196] In addition to capturing the time and location of points of interest, the first electronic device can also perform reverse geocoding analysis on the capture locations of the associated images for each segment of the route to determine the location name of each captured point of interest. Reverse geocoding and geocoding are the inverse processes of each other.

[0197] Therefore, the location and time of each point of interest can be stored in the manner shown in Table 1.

[0198] For ease of explanation, in Table 1, ... Figures 7A-7B The following examples illustrate shooting points of interest A, B, C, and D.

[0199] Table 1

[0200]

[0201] Additionally, vehicles typically exhibit both driving and parked states. When the tour route represents the vehicle's driving path, the route doesn't necessarily indicate whether the vehicle is parked. However, when the vehicle is parked, the user might have taken a picture and could set that location as a point of interest.

[0202] Considering that the above method of dividing a group of images only takes into account the shooting position of the images, the first electronic device can check whether the parking position when the vehicle is in a parking state is a shooting point of interest after obtaining multiple shooting points of interest.

[0203] In some embodiments, the first electronic device, based on image information from multiple images, can determine a parking location as a dividing point when an image of the parking location exists along the tour route. Here, a parking location along the tour route can be understood as the location of a vehicle when it is parked.

[0204] Therefore, the first electronic device can determine whether there is a point of interest to be photographed within the area to which the segmentation point belongs.

[0205] When a point of interest exists within the area of ​​the segmentation point, the first electronic device can determine that the user took the picture while the vehicle was parked. Therefore, the first electronic device can identify the segmentation point as a newly added point of interest.

[0206] Therefore, the location of the newly added point of interest is the location of the dividing point, and the location of the newly added point of interest is the time of the dividing point (i.e., the parking time).

[0207] If no point of interest is captured within the area of ​​the segmentation point, the first electronic device can determine that no image was taken when the vehicle was parked. Therefore, the first electronic device can determine that the segmentation point is not a point of interest.

[0208] S202, the first electronic device divides the tour route based on multiple shooting points of interest, and uses the positions of every two shooting points of interest that are adjacent in time as the starting and ending positions to obtain multiple segmented routes.

[0209] The first electronic device divides the tour route based on the time sequence of multiple shooting points of interest, resulting in multiple segmented routes. It then associates the multiple shooting points of interest with the multiple segmented routes by using the positions of every two time-adjacent shooting points of interest as the start and end positions, thus obtaining multiple segmented routes.

[0210] The multiple segmented routes start at the earliest shooting point of interest among the multiple shooting points of interest and end at the latest shooting point of interest among the multiple shooting points of interest.

[0211] Understandably, when the earliest point of interest among multiple shooting points overlaps with the starting position of the tour route, the starting position of the multiple segmented routes becomes the starting position of the tour route.

[0212] When the earliest point of interest among multiple points of interest does not overlap with the starting point of the tour route, the multiple segmented routes do not include the route between the earliest point of interest and the starting point of the tour route.

[0213] Similarly, when the latest shooting point of interest among multiple shooting points overlaps with the end point of the tour route, the end point of the multiple segmented routes is the end point of the tour route.

[0214] When the latest point of interest among multiple points of interest does not overlap with the end point of the tour route, the multiple segmented routes do not include the route between the latest point of interest and the end point of the tour route.

[0215] Below, in conjunction with Figure 8 This section details the specific implementation method of the first electronic device in segmenting tour routes based on captured points of interest.

[0216] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of multiple image aggregation according to an embodiment of this application. For ease of explanation, Figure 8 The following example uses four points of interest shown in Table 1.

[0217] like Figure 8 As shown, Route 10 is the tour route. In order of time from morning to night, shooting points of interest A, B, C, and D divides Route 1 into three segments: Segment 11, Segment 12, and Segment 13.

[0218] Regarding segmented route 11, the starting position of segmented route 11 is shooting point of interest A, and the ending position of segmented route 11 is shooting point of interest B.

[0219] For segmented route 12, the starting position of segmented route 12 is shooting point of interest B, and the ending position of segmented route 12 is shooting point of interest C.

[0220] For segmented route 13, the starting position of segmented route 13 is shooting point of interest C, and the ending position of segmented route 13 is shooting point of interest D.

[0221] Among them, box 51 corresponds to shooting point of interest A, box 52 corresponds to shooting point of interest B, box 53 corresponds to shooting point of interest C, and box 54 corresponds to shooting point of interest D.

[0222] In summary, the first electronic device can segment the tour route based on the points of interest captured, resulting in multiple segmented routes.

[0223] S203. The first electronic device associates each segment of the route with multiple images based on the image information of multiple images, and obtains the image information of the associated images of each segment of the route.

[0224] The first electronic device can associate each segment of the route with multiple images based on the image information of multiple images, and obtain the image information of the associated images for each segment of the route.

[0225] Thus, the first electronic device can determine multiple segmented routes and image information of the associated images for each segmented route.

[0226] Based on the above description, the first electronic device can capture points of interest as the starting and ending positions, and fuse and store navigation information for multiple segmented routes and image information of associated images for each segment.

[0227] The data format for integrated storage is shown in Table 2. For ease of explanation, Table 2 uses... Figure 8 The three segmented routes shown are illustrated as examples.

[0228] Table 2

[0229]

[0230] Based on the aforementioned description of S105, the second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and associated images of each segmented route based on multiple shooting points of interest.

[0231] In some embodiments, the second electronic device may display each segmented route in an electronic map using lines with arrows connecting each two time-adjacent points of interest. The direction of the arrow on each line is from the earlier point of interest to the later point of interest. An icon of the associated image for each segmented route is displayed in the area belonging to each point of interest.

[0232] The icons for the associated images of each segment of the route can be displayed in various ways. For example, the icon for any associated image of a segment of the route can be a thumbnail of each image in the associated images of that segment of the route, or it can be a stacked image of thumbnails of each image in the associated images of that segment of the route, or it can be a thumbnail of one image in the associated images of that segment of the route with a count badge displayed in the upper right corner of the thumbnail. The count badge is used to indicate the total number of images in the associated images of that segment of the route. This application does not limit this.

[0233] In addition to displaying multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segment, the second electronic device can also display the location name of each point of interest within its respective area. This allows users to promptly access information about points of interest on the second electronic device.

[0234] Furthermore, upon receiving an operation on the icon of an associated image for a segmented route, the second electronic device can display a user interface. This user interface can be used to browse each image in the associated images of the segmented route. The aforementioned operations may include, but are not limited to, clicks, double-clicks, long presses, etc. This application does not limit the specific implementation of this user interface.

[0235] This allows users to select individual points of interest for image browsing and on-site navigation on the second electronic device, providing the possibility of on-site navigation for browsing related images of a single point of interest, which is conducive to efficiently and accurately following the existing experience of the sharing user.

[0236] In some embodiments, the user interface may include a thumbnail of each image and a control. The control provides an entry point for browsing each image. This application does not limit the specific implementation of the control. Thus, upon receiving an operation triggered by the control, the second electronic device can play each image in turn, according to the chronological order in which they were captured.

[0237] Below, in conjunction with Figures 9A-9B The document details how the second electronic device can display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route based on multiple points of interest.

[0238] Please see Figures 9A-9B , Figures 9A-9B This is a schematic diagram illustrating the effect of displaying multiple images according to an embodiment of this application. For ease of explanation, Figures 9A-9B The following example illustrates the three segmented routes shown in Table 2 and the associated images for each segmented route.

[0239] like Figure 9A As shown, the second electronic device can display segmented routes 11, 12, and 13 on the electronic map using lines with arrows, display associated images of point of interest A using icon 21, associated images of point of interest B using icon 22, associated images of point of interest C using icon 23, associated images of point of interest D using icon 24, and display the location names of point of interest A (xx lake), point of interest B (xx forest), point of interest C (x1 building), and point of interest D (x2 building).

[0240] After receiving the operation indicated by icon 21, the second electronic device can display... Figure 9B An exemplary user interface is shown for browsing 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, and 4.jpg.

[0241] Figure 9B The user interface may include: area 11 and control 12. Area 11 can be used to display thumbnails of 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, and 4.jpg. Control 12 can be used to navigate to a user interface that loops through 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg, and 4.jpg in ascending order of their shooting times.

[0242] Additionally, the user interface may include controls 13 and 14. Control 13 provides an entry point to the previous point of interest (POI) captured earlier than point A. Control 14 provides an entry point to the next POI captured later than point A.

[0243] Based on the foregoing description, before generating the data packet to be shared as shown in S102, the first electronic device can also display multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route. The specific implementation of the above process can be found in the description of the second electronic device displaying multiple segmented routes and associated images for each segmented route, and will not be repeated here. Thus, the first electronic device can preview and display multiple images.

[0244] In addition, the first electronic device can also display the location name of each point of interest within its respective area. The specific implementation of this process can be found in the description of the second electronic device displaying the location name of each point of interest, and will not be repeated here. This allows the user to promptly obtain information about the points of interest from the first electronic device.

[0245] Additionally, upon receiving an operation on the icon of an associated image for a segmented route, the first electronic device can also display a user interface for browsing each image in the associated images of the segmented route. The aforementioned operation may include, but is not limited to, clicks, double-clicks, long presses, etc. This application does not limit the specific implementation of this user interface. Thus, the user can select a single point of interest for shooting and browsing / navigating images on the first electronic device.

[0246] Based on the above description, any electronic device can be a mobile phone (such as a foldable screen phone, a large screen phone, etc.), a tablet computer, a laptop computer, a wearable device, an in-vehicle device, an augmented reality (AR) / virtual reality (VR) device, an ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), a netbook, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a smart TV, a smart screen, a high-definition TV, a 4K TV, a smart speaker, a smart projector, etc. This application does not impose any restrictions on the specific type of electronic device.

[0247] The following example uses a mobile phone as an example of an electronic device, combined with... Figure 10 This application describes the electronic equipment involved.

[0248] Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic device provided in one embodiment of this application.

[0249] It is understood that the structure illustrated in this application does not constitute a specific limitation on the electronic device 100. In other embodiments, the electronic device 100 may include more or fewer components than illustrated, or combine some components, or split some components, or have different component arrangements. The illustrated components may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.

[0250] Processor 110 may include one or more processing units, such as: application processor (AP), modem processor, graphics processing unit (GPU), image signal processor (ISP), controller, memory, video codec, digital signal processor (DSP), baseband processor, and / or neural network processing unit (NPU), etc. Different processing units may be independent devices or integrated into one or more processors.

[0251] The controller can be the nerve center and command center of the electronic device 100. The controller can generate operation control signals according to the instruction opcode and timing signals to complete the control of fetching and executing instructions.

[0252] The processor 110 may also include a memory for storing instructions and data. In some embodiments, the memory in the processor 110 is a cache memory. This memory can store instructions or data that the processor 110 has just used or that are used repeatedly. If the processor 110 needs to use the instruction or data again, it can retrieve it directly from the memory. This avoids repeated accesses, reduces the waiting time of the processor 110, and thus improves the efficiency of the system.

[0253] In some embodiments, the processor 110 may include one or more interfaces. Interfaces may include an inter-integrated circuit (I2C) interface, an inter-integrated circuit sound (I2S) interface, a pulse code modulation (PCM) interface, a universal asynchronous receiver / transmitter (UART) interface, a mobile industry processor interface (MIPI), a general-purpose input / output (GPIO) interface, a subscriber identity module (SIM) interface, and / or a universal serial bus (USB) interface, etc.

[0254] The I2C interface is a bidirectional synchronous serial bus, including a serial data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). In some embodiments, the processor 110 may include multiple I2C buses. The processor 110 can couple to the touch sensor 180K, charger, flash, camera 193, etc., through different I2C bus interfaces. For example, the processor 110 can couple to the touch sensor 180K through the I2C interface, enabling the processor 110 and the touch sensor 180K to communicate through the I2C bus interface, thereby realizing the touch function of the electronic device 100.

[0255] The I2S interface can be used for audio communication. In some embodiments, the processor 110 may include multiple I2S buses. The processor 110 can be coupled to the audio module 170 via the I2S bus to enable communication between the processor 110 and the audio module 170. In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can transmit audio signals to the wireless communication module 160 via the I2S interface to enable the function of answering phone calls through a Bluetooth headset.

[0256] The PCM interface can also be used for audio communication, sampling, quantizing, and encoding analog signals. In some embodiments, the audio module 170 and the wireless communication module 160 can be coupled via the PCM bus interface. In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can also transmit audio signals to the wireless communication module 160 via the PCM interface, enabling the function of answering phone calls through a Bluetooth headset. Both the I2S interface and the PCM interface can be used for audio communication.

[0257] The UART interface is a universal serial data bus used for asynchronous communication. This bus can be a bidirectional communication bus. It converts the data to be transmitted between serial and parallel communication. In some embodiments, the UART interface is typically used to connect the processor 110 and the wireless communication module 160. For example, the processor 110 communicates with the Bluetooth module in the wireless communication module 160 via the UART interface to implement Bluetooth functionality. In some embodiments, the audio module 170 can transmit audio signals to the wireless communication module 160 via the UART interface to enable music playback through Bluetooth headphones.

[0258] The MIPI interface can be used to connect the processor 110 to peripheral devices such as the display screen 194 and the camera 193. The MIPI interface includes a camera serial interface (CSI) and a display serial interface (DSI). In some embodiments, the processor 110 and the camera 193 communicate via the CSI interface to enable the electronic device 100 to capture images. The processor 110 and the display screen 194 communicate via the DSI interface to enable the electronic device 100 to display images.

[0259] The GPIO interface can be configured via software. It can be configured as a control signal or a data signal. In some embodiments, the GPIO interface can be used to connect the processor 110 to a camera 193, a display screen 194, a wireless communication module 160, an audio module 170, a sensor module 180, etc. The GPIO interface can also be configured as an I2C interface, an I2S interface, a UART interface, a MIPI interface, etc.

[0260] USB port 130 is a USB standard compliant interface, specifically a Mini USB port, Micro USB port, USB Type-C port, etc. USB port 130 can be used to connect a charger to charge electronic device 100, and can also be used for data transfer between electronic device 100 and peripheral devices. It can also be used to connect headphones for audio playback. This interface can also be used to connect other electronic devices, such as AR devices.

[0261] It is understood that the interface connection relationships between the modules illustrated in this application are merely illustrative and do not constitute a structural limitation on the electronic device 100. In other embodiments, the electronic device 100 may also employ different interface connection methods or combinations of multiple interface connection methods as described in the above embodiments.

[0262] The charging management module 140 receives charging input from a charger. The charger can be a wireless charger or a wired charger. In some wired charging embodiments, the charging management module 140 receives charging input from the wired charger via the USB interface 130. In some wireless charging embodiments, the charging management module 140 receives wireless charging input via the wireless charging coil of the electronic device 100. While charging the battery 142, the charging management module 140 can also supply power to the electronic device via the power management module 141.

This application does not limit the type of operating system of the electronic device. For example, Android system, Linux system, Windows system, iOS system, Harmony OS, etc.

[0303] Figure 11 This is a software structure block diagram of an electronic device provided in one embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 11 As shown, the layered architecture divides the software into several layers, each with a clear role and function. Layers communicate with each other through software interfaces. In some embodiments, the Android system is divided into four layers, from top to bottom: the application layer (APP), the application framework layer (APP framework), the Android runtime and system libraries, and the kernel layer.

[0304] The application layer can include a series of application packages.

[0305] like Figure 11 As shown, the application package may include applications (APPs) such as camera, gallery, calendar, call, map, navigation, WLAN, Bluetooth, music, video, games, chat, shopping, travel, instant messaging (such as SMS), smart home, and device control.

[0307] In addition, the application package may also include applications such as the home screen (i.e., the desktop), the negative one screen, the control center, and the notification center.

[0308] The -1 screen, also known as the negative one screen, refers to the user interface (UI) displayed when swiping right from the main screen of an electronic device until the leftmost split screen is reached. For example, the -1 screen can be used to display quick service functions and notifications, such as global search, shortcuts to specific pages within applications (payment codes, WeChat, etc.), instant information and reminders (express delivery information, expense information, traffic conditions, ride-hailing information, schedule information, etc.), and followed events (football stands, basketball stands, stock information, etc.). The control center is the swipe-up notification bar on the electronic device, the user interface displayed when the user swipes up from the bottom of the device. The notification center is the pull-down notification bar on the electronic device, the user interface displayed when the user swipes down from the top of the device.

[0310] like Figure 11 As shown, the application framework layer may include a window manager, content provider, view system, phone manager, resource manager, notification manager, etc.

[0311] A window manager is used to manage window programs, such as managing window state, properties, adding, deleting, and updating views, window order, message collection and processing, etc. The window manager can obtain the screen size, determine if a status bar is present, lock the screen, and capture the screen. Furthermore, the window manager serves as the entry point for external access to windows.

[0312] Content providers store and retrieve data, making that data accessible to applications. This data may include videos, images, audio, made and received phone calls, browsing history and bookmarks, phone books, etc.

[0313] A view system includes visual controls, such as controls for displaying text and controls for displaying images. View systems can be used to build applications. A display interface can consist of one or more views. For example, a display interface including a text notification icon could include views for displaying text and views for displaying images.

[0314] The phone manager is used to provide communication functions for electronic device 100. For example, it manages call status (including connection and disconnection).

[0315] The resource manager provides applications with various resources, such as localized strings, icons, images, user interface layout files (layout XML), video files, fonts, colors, and identity documents (IDs) (also known as serial numbers or accounts) for user interface modules (UI components). Furthermore, the resource manager is used to manage these resources uniformly.

[0316] The notification manager allows applications to display notifications in the status bar. These notifications can be used to deliver informational messages and can disappear automatically after a short pause, requiring no user interaction. For example, the notification manager can be used to notify users of completed downloads or message alerts. The notification manager can also display notifications as icons or scrolling text in the top status bar, such as notifications from background applications, or as dialog boxes on the screen. Examples include displaying text messages in the status bar, emitting sounds, vibrating electronic devices, and flashing indicator lights.

[0317] The Android runtime consists of core libraries and a virtual machine. The Android runtime is responsible for scheduling and managing the Android system.

[0318] The core library consists of two parts: one part is the functionalities that the Java language needs to call, and the other part is the core library of the Android system.

[0319] The application layer and application framework layer run in a virtual machine. The virtual machine executes the Java files of the application layer and application framework layer as binary files. The virtual machine is used to perform functions such as object lifecycle management, stack management, thread management, security and exception management, and garbage collection.

[0320] System libraries can include multiple functional modules. For example: surface manager, media libraries, 3D graphics processing libraries (e.g., OpenGLES), 2D graphics engines (e.g., SGL), and image processing libraries.

[0321] The Surface Manager is used to manage the display subsystem and provides the blending of 2D and 3D layers for multiple applications.

[0322] The media library supports playback and recording of various common audio and video formats, as well as still image files. It supports multiple audio and video encoding formats, such as MPEG4, H.264, MP3, AAC, AMR, JPG, and PNG.

[0323] The 3D graphics processing library is used to implement 3D graphics drawing, image rendering, compositing, and layer processing.

[0324] A 2D graphics engine is a graphics engine for 2D drawing.

[0325] The kernel layer is the layer between hardware and software. The kernel layer contains at least the display driver, camera driver, audio driver, and sensor driver.

[0326] The following example, using a smart speaker to play sound, illustrates the workflow of the software and hardware of electronic device 100.

[0327] When the touch sensor 180K receives a touch operation, a corresponding hardware interrupt is sent to the kernel layer. The kernel layer processes the touch operation into a raw input event (including touch coordinates, timestamp of the touch operation, etc.). The raw input event is stored in the kernel layer. The application framework layer retrieves the raw input event from the kernel layer and identifies the control corresponding to the input event. Taking a single touch operation as an example, where the corresponding control is the smart speaker icon, the smart speaker application calls the interface of the application framework layer to launch the smart speaker application, and then calls the kernel layer to start the audio driver, converting the audio electrical signal into a sound signal through the speaker 170A.
