[0033] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0034] Figure 1 This is a diagram illustrating a system in which an electronic device, according to an embodiment, provides feedback information from a remotely captured image to an external electronic device.

[0035] refer to Figure 1 According to an embodiment, a system that provides feedback information for remote shooting to an external electronic device may include an electronic device 101 and at least one external electronic device 103. When a user of the electronic device 101 performs remote shooting using the camera of the electronic device 101, the user can transmit control signals for shooting to the electronic device 101, which is wirelessly connected to the external electronic device 103, using the external electronic device 103 held by the user. When the control signals for shooting are transmitted to the electronic device 101, the electronic device 101 can obtain a captured image of the object from the camera based on the transmitted control signals. For example, the electronic device 101 can run a camera application based on the transmitted control signals and can obtain a captured image of the object from the camera based on at least one of the following: whether the installation state of the electronic device 101 is stable, how far the user of the electronic device 101 is from the electronic device 101, or whether the installed electronic device 101 is in a non-shaking state.

[0036] Electronic device 101 can determine the quality of the preview image or the quality of the acquired image based on control signals from external electronic device 103, and can send feedback information generated based on the determined quality result to external electronic device 103. A user of electronic device 101 can send subsequent control signals to electronic device 101 based on the feedback information sent to external electronic device 103.

[0037] For example, determining the quality of the acquired image may include, but is not limited to, determining whether the state of the object in the captured image meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101 or whether the state of the object in the preview image before capture meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101. (To be continued later...) Figure 6 Detailed examples are described in the text.

[0038] For example, feedback information may be information about the quality determination of an image obtained from the camera of electronic device 101, and may be information that allows the user of electronic device 101 to determine whether the image obtained from the camera of electronic device 101 is obtained according to the preset standards of electronic device 101. Feedback information may include visual feedback information, voice feedback information, and vibration feedback information. Feedback information is not limited to these, and will be discussed later in Figures 9 to 100. Figure 14 As described in the example. Feedback information can be generated in various ways depending on the type of external electronic device 103, and appropriate types of feedback information can be provided to external electronic device 103.

[0039] For example, subsequent control signals could be whether to re-shoot the subject based on feedback information sent to the external electronic device 103, whether to focus on the subject, whether to end shooting, or whether to delete a specific image from the captured images.

[0040] The method for sending subsequent control signals to the electronic device 101 can vary depending on the type of the external electronic device 103. For example, subsequent control signals can be sent by tapping the screen of the external electronic device 103 with controller functionality. For example, subsequent control signals can be sent by pressing a specific button on the external electronic device 103 with controller functionality.

[0041] Electronic device 101 may be a device including a camera, and may be, for example, a smartphone, tablet PC, mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), laptop computer, media player, global positioning system (GPS) device, e-book reader, digital broadcasting terminal, navigation system, digital camera, home appliance, or other mobile computing device, but is not limited thereto. For example, electronic device 101 may be a foldable device that can be folded by a hinge.

[0042] External electronic device 103 may be a device capable of communicating with and receiving feedback information from electronic device 101, and may be, for example, a smartphone, tablet PC, mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), laptop computer, media player, global positioning system (GPS) device, e-book reader, digital broadcasting terminal, navigation device, digital camera, home appliance or other mobile computing device, but is not limited thereto.

[0043] For example, the external electronic device 103 may be a wearable electronic device worn by the user, such as a smartwatch 103-1, smart glasses, wireless headphones 103-2, smart pen 103-3, smart ring, headphone device, and smart clothing.

[0044] Electronic device 101 can be communicatively connected to external electronic device 103 via a network. The network can be implemented as a wired network, such as a local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), or value-added network (VAN), or any type of wireless network, such as a mobile wireless communication network or a satellite communication network. Furthermore, the network can include a combination of at least two or more of LANs, WANs, value-added networks, mobile wireless communication networks, or satellite communication networks, and is permitted to... Figure 1 The network shown is a comprehensive data communication network in which the corresponding network components communicate smoothly with each other, and includes wired Internet, wireless Internet and mobile wireless communication networks. Wireless communication may be, but is not limited to, wireless LAN (Wi-Fi), Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Energy, Zigbee, Wi-Fi Direct (WFD), ultra-wideband (UWB), infrared communication (Infrared Data Association (IrDA)), near field communication (NFC), etc.

[0045] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a method by which an electronic device, according to an embodiment, provides feedback information from a remotely captured image to an external electronic device.

[0046] In operation 200, electronic device 101 can run a camera application. Electronic device 101 can run the camera application based on user input to electronic device 101. Alternatively, electronic device 101 can receive control signals from external electronic device 103 for running the camera application and run the camera application in response to the control signals. The camera application may be an application that provides the function of capturing images of objects using at least one camera of electronic device 101.

[0047] In operation 210, the electronic device 101 can identify the folded state of the electronic device 101.

[0048] Electronic device 101 can identify the folding angle of electronic device 101. The folding angle can indicate the degree to which the foldable electronic device is folded by its hinge. For example, electronic device 101 can identify the folding angle indicating the degree to which electronic device 101 is folded by using at least one sensor within electronic device 101. When a user of electronic device 101 places electronic device 101 on a surface to take a picture using the camera of electronic device 101, the folding angle of electronic device 101 can be within a predetermined range. Whether the folding angle is within the predetermined range can be used by electronic device 101 to determine whether the user intends to take a remote picture using the camera of electronic device 101.

[0049] Electronic device 101 can determine whether its folded state meets preset conditions. For example, it can determine whether the folded state meets preset conditions based on the folding angle of electronic device 101. For example, when the folding angle of electronic device 101 is within a predetermined angle range, electronic device 101 can determine that its folded state meets preset conditions. For example, when the camera of electronic device 101 is not facing the sky or the ground, but facing a direction within a predetermined angle range with respect to the horizontal direction, electronic device 101 can determine that its folded state meets preset conditions. For example, when electronic device 101 is vertically or horizontally erected in its folded state, electronic device 101 can determine that its folded state meets preset conditions.

[0050] According to an embodiment, electronic device 101 can determine at least one of the following: the folding angle of electronic device 101, the direction in which the camera of electronic device 101 faces, or the angle at which electronic device 101 is upright, based on sensing values ​​detected by at least one sensor of electronic device 101. Additionally, electronic device 101 can determine whether the folding state of electronic device 101 meets preset conditions based on at least one of the following: the folding angle of electronic device 101, the direction in which the camera of electronic device 101 faces, or the angle at which electronic device 101 is upright. In operation 220, electronic device 101 can determine the quality of an image acquired by the camera. When the folding state of electronic device 101 meets preset conditions, electronic device 101 can determine the quality of the image acquired by the camera. According to an embodiment, the operation of electronic device 101 determining the quality of an image acquired from the camera may include determining the quality of a captured image or the quality of a preview image before capturing. For example, a user can preset a quality standard for electronic device 101. For example, electronic device 101 can automatically set a quality standard that meets the requirements of the acquired image based on a list of images stored in memory by the user. The operation of determining the quality of an image acquired from a camera by electronic device 101 may include, for example, determining whether the focus of an object in a preview image before shooting is stable, or whether the composition or perspective of the object and background in the preview image meets the preset standards of electronic device 101. The operation of determining the quality of an image acquired from a camera by electronic device 101 may include, for example, determining whether the image after shooting is stable, whether the face of an object in the image (e.g., when the object is a person) is not frowning, or whether the object in the image (e.g., when the object is a person) has closed eyes. More will follow later. Figure 6 The text describes specific examples of determining the quality of an image after it has been captured or the quality of a preview image before it has been captured.

[0051] In operation 230, electronic device 101 can identify the connected external electronic device 103. Electronic device 101 can determine whether there is a connected external electronic device 103 or whether there are multiple connected external electronic devices 103. Electronic device 101 can identify the type of the connected external electronic device 103. For example, electronic device 101 can identify whether the connected external electronic device 103 is a device with at least one of the following: controller function, display function, sound output function, or haptic function. By obtaining the device information of the external electronic device 103, electronic device 101 can determine whether there is a connected external electronic device 103. When a camera application is running, electronic device 101 can request device information from the external electronic device 103 and can receive device information from the external electronic device 103. However, the timing of electronic device 101 requesting device information from the external electronic device 103 is not limited to this. The device information of external electronic device 103 may include, but is not limited to, the model name of external electronic device 103, International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) code, manufacturer, operating system, version information, screen resolution, and identification values ​​of applications installed on external electronic device 103. More details will follow later. Figure 7 The description refers to the operation of sending and outputting feedback information based on whether there is a connected external electronic device 103 or whether there are multiple external electronic devices 103.

[0052] In operation 240, electronic device 101 can select a feedback output device from among connected external electronic devices 103 to output feedback information. When external electronic device 103 is not connected to electronic device 101, the feedback output device can be electronic device 101. When external electronic device 103 is connected to electronic device 101, the feedback output device can be external electronic device 103. When multiple connected external electronic devices 103 exist, at least one of the connected external electronic devices 103 can be selected as the feedback output device. The feedback output device can be selected based on a priority of the feedback information output method of external electronic device 103 or the characteristics of external electronic device 103. For example, even when electronic device 101 and multiple external electronic devices 103 exist, the feedback output device can be selected based on a determined priority. The type of electronic device 101 or the external electronic device 103 connected to electronic device 101 can be, for example, a smartwatch with display and controller functions, a smart ring or smart pen with only controller functions, or wireless headphones with only sound output functions.

[0053] When electronic device 101 or an external electronic device 103 connected to electronic device 101 is present, the priority for selecting the feedback output device can be preset based on the functions supported by the external electronic device 103. For example, the highest priority could be a smartwatch that has both controller and screen display functions. The next priority could be a smart pen or smart ring that only has controller functions, and the next priority after that could be wireless headphones that only have sound output functions.

[0054] For example, when a user is wearing a smartwatch and wireless headphones connected to multiple external electronic devices 103 of electronic device 101, the smartwatch can be selected as the feedback output device. Similarly, when a user is wearing a smart pen and wireless headphones connected to multiple external electronic devices 103 of electronic device 101, the smart pen can be selected as the feedback output device. However, it is not necessarily true that only a single external electronic device 103 is selected as the feedback output device based on priority; multiple feedback output devices can be selected from multiple external electronic devices 103. This will be discussed later. Figure 8 The text describes specific examples of selecting combinations of multiple feedback output devices.

[0055] For example, the priority for selecting a feedback output device can be determined based on the type of external electronic device and the feedback output method, but the user can also pre-set the priority for selecting a feedback output device for electronic device 101.

[0056] In operation 250, electronic device 101 may generate feedback information. The feedback information may include information relating to the quality determination of an image acquired by electronic device 101 from its camera. For example, the feedback information may include information informing the user that the focus, composition, or angle of the pre-capture preview image meets preset standards of electronic device 101 as a result of the quality determination of the pre-capture preview image. For example, the feedback information may include information informing the user that objects in the captured image match preset standards of electronic device 101, such as the object being smooth or without facial expressions (e.g., a person's facial expression).

[0057] According to an embodiment, the feedback information may include multiple feedback messages, such as visual feedback information, voice feedback information, and vibration feedback information. When an image acquired from the camera meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101, feedback information may be generated as follows: For example, in visual feedback information, the electronic device 101 may generate blue information or animated information such as a smiley face display to inform the user that the image acquired from the camera has met the preset standards based on the quality of the electronic device 101. In voice feedback information, the electronic device 101 may generate voice feedback information such as "best shot" or "good shot" to inform the user that the image acquired from the camera has met the preset standards based on the quality of the electronic device 101. In vibration feedback information, the electronic device 101 may generate vibration feedback information to inform the user that the image acquired from the camera has met the preset standards based on the quality of the electronic device 101.

[0058] When an image acquired from the camera does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101, the electronic device 101 can generate feedback information indicating that the quality of the acquired image does not meet the preset standards. For example, in visual feedback information, the electronic device 101 can generate yellow information or generate animated information such as a frowning image to inform the user that the image acquired from the camera has failed to meet the preset standards according to the quality of the electronic device 101. In voice feedback information, the electronic device 101 can generate voice feedback information such as "shaky" or "not captured well" to inform the user that the image acquired from the camera has failed to meet the preset standards according to the quality of the electronic device 101. In vibration feedback information, the electronic device 101 can generate vibration feedback information to inform the user that the quality of the image acquired from the camera of the electronic device 101 does not yet meet the preset standards.

[0059] In operation 260, electronic device 101 can send feedback information to a feedback output device. Feedback information in a format suitable for the output method of the selected feedback output device can be sent to the feedback output device selected based on a priority determined by the characteristics of the external electronic device 103. For example, when a smartwatch is the feedback output device, a smiley face can be displayed on the smartwatch screen to notify the user that the quality of the image obtained from the camera meets a preset standard. Similarly, when a wireless headset is the feedback output device, voice feedback information such as "there is jitter" can be output by the wireless headset to notify the user that the quality of the image obtained from the camera does not yet meet a preset standard.

[0060] The user of electronic device 101 can send subsequent control signals to electronic device 101 based on the feedback information sent. For example, the user can send control signals to electronic device 101 by touching the display screen of external electronic device 103. For example, the user can send control signals to electronic device 101 by pressing a specific button on external electronic device 103. For example, the user can send control signals to electronic device 101 by inputting voice into the microphone of external electronic device 103. The methods for sending subsequent control signals are not limited to these, and signals for controlling remote shooting can be exchanged between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103 in various ways.

[0061] The above description pertains to determining image quality by the electronic device 101 recognizing its folding angle and when the folding angle meets preset conditions, but is not limited thereto. For example, the electronic device 101 can recognize whether its shaking state is stable, and can determine image quality when its shaking state is stable.

[0062] The shaking state of electronic device 101 can refer to the state of electronic device 101 regarding whether or not it is shaking. Furthermore, a state where electronic device 101 is neither moving nor shaking can be a stable state. For example, when electronic device 101 is placed on a surface and is not moving, its shaking state can be determined to be a stable state. Similarly, when electronic device 101 is fixed to a mounting device such as a tripod and is not moving, its shaking state can be determined to be a stable state. Likewise, when electronic device 101 is mounted on a mounting bracket and is not moving, its shaking state can be determined to be a stable state.

[0063] Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a method, according to an embodiment, for sending feedback information of remote shooting based on connection to or disconnection from an external electronic device.

[0064] In operation 300, electronic device 101 can identify whether a connected external electronic device exists. When a connected external electronic device is identified in operation 230, electronic device 101 can determine in operation 300 that a connected external electronic device exists. When no connected external electronic device is identified in operation 230, electronic device 101 can determine in operation 300 that no connected external electronic device exists.

[0065] When no connected external electronic device 103 is detected, electronic device 101 can output feedback information during operation 310. For example, electronic device 101 can display a smiley face or blue color as visual feedback information on its display. The user of electronic device 101 can determine whether the image obtained from the camera of electronic device 101 meets the set criteria of electronic device 101 by using the feedback information displayed on the display of electronic device 101.

[0066] However, the feedback information is not necessarily based on whether the connection of the external electronic device 103 is detected and sent to the electronic device 101 or the external electronic device 103. A single feedback message can be output by both the electronic device 101 and the external electronic device 103 simultaneously, or multiple feedback messages can be sent separately to the electronic device 101 and the external electronic device 103.

[0067] Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining the state of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0068] Figure 4 Operations 410 to 420 can be performed Figure 2 Operations 210 and 220 are executed between each other. However, the order of operations is not limited to this, and they can be executed sequentially or in parallel.

[0069] In operation 410, electronic device 101 can perform operations to identify the installation status of electronic device 101. (Later in...) Figures 5a to 5cThe mounting state of electronic device 101 is described herein. Based on the mounting state of electronic device 101 determined by its processor, the processor can determine whether the state of electronic device 101 is a mounting state capable of performing remote shooting. The mounting state of electronic device 101 may include a folded state and a shake state of electronic device 101. For example, the operation of identifying the mounting state of electronic device 101 may include the operation of the processor determining the angle formed by the first housing and the second housing included in the housing portion of electronic device 101. When the angle formed by the first housing and the second housing of electronic device 101 is within a first angle range and the shake state of electronic device 101 is a stable state, the mounting state of electronic device 101 may be a first mounting state. In the first mounting state, a preview image before shooting or a captured image can be displayed on a display disposed outside the housing portion of electronic device 101. Therefore, the user of electronic device 101 can check the preview image before shooting or the captured image on the display disposed outside the housing portion of electronic device 101. In the first installation state, the user can check feedback information related to the analysis results of the images obtained from the camera of the electronic device 101 via a display located outside the housing of the electronic device 101. The installation state of the electronic device 101 can be a second installation state when the angle formed by the first and second housings is a second angle range exceeding the first angle range and the shaking state of the electronic device 101 is stable. In the second installation state, a preview image before shooting or a captured image can be displayed via a display located inside the housing of the electronic device 101; therefore, the user can check the preview image before shooting or the captured image via the display located inside the housing of the electronic device 101. In the second installation state, the user can check feedback information related to the analysis results of the images obtained from the camera via the display located inside the housing of the electronic device 101.

[0070] According to an embodiment, the installation state of the electronic device 101 can also be determined based on the orientation of its hinge. In addition to the first and second installation states, the electronic device 101 can also be in a third installation state, for example, when the hinge is positioned facing the ground, and in a fourth installation state, when the hinge is positioned facing the sky, depending on the orientation of the hinge connecting the first housing to the second housing. The installation states of the electronic device 101 can be preset, or they can be set by the user. The installation states of the electronic device 101 can be various installation states other than those described above, and are not limited thereto.

[0071] When the installation state of electronic device 101 does not match the preset installation state of electronic device 101, the processor of electronic device 101 can provide feedback information indicating that the installation state of electronic device 101 is not an installation state suitable for remote shooting. The feedback information can be output by electronic device 101 or sent to external electronic device 103. When the installation state suitable for remote shooting is met, the feedback information may include, for example, voice feedback information such as "installed". The feedback information may include, for example, visual feedback information such as displaying animations or images in colors such as blue on the display of electronic device 101 or external electronic device 103 to notify the user that the installation is complete when the installation state suitable for remote shooting is met. The feedback information may include, for example, vibration feedback information such as causing electronic device 101 or external electronic device 103 to vibrate presetly to notify the user that the installation is complete when the installation state suitable for remote shooting is met.

[0072] The processor of electronic device 101 can provide feedback information to the user related to changes in the installation state of electronic device 101. For example, the processor of electronic device 101 can provide feedback information related to a change in the installation state of electronic device 101 from a first installation state to a second installation state. The installation state of electronic device 101 can be changed by external factors or by the user. The feedback information indicating the change in the installation state of electronic device 101 can be output by electronic device 101 or sent to external electronic device 103. The user, having confirmed the provided feedback information, can adjust the installation state of electronic device 101 to achieve the desired remote shooting.

[0073] In operation 420, electronic device 101 can measure the distance between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103. Electronic device 101 can perform the operation of measuring the distance to a user wearing or carrying external electronic device 103. Electronic device 101 can be communicatively connected to external electronic device 103 via short-range wireless communication, and electronic device 101 can measure the strength of signals exchanged with external electronic device 103 via short-range wireless communication to identify the distance between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103. For example, electronic device 101 can be communicatively connected to external electronic device 103 via Bluetooth communication or Wi-Fi Direct communication, and can identify the distance between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103 based on the strength of the transmitted and received signals. In this case, for example, electronic device 101 can identify the distance between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103 by using periodically measured received signal strength indicator (RSSI) values.

[0074] Alternatively, for example, electronic device 101 can identify the distance to external electronic device 103 by using ultra-wideband (UWB) communication technology. In this case, for example, electronic device 101 can exchange broadband signals with external electronic device 103 via UWB communication, thereby identifying the distance between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103 by using time-of-flight (ToF) distance measurement technology.

[0075] Electronic device 101 can identify the distance between itself and external electronic device 103 and determine whether the distance is suitable for long-distance shooting. Whether the distance is suitable for long-distance shooting can be preset in electronic device 101. Whether the distance is suitable for long-distance shooting can be set by the user in electronic device 101.

[0076] When the user is located beyond a preset distance or beyond a distance that allows for short-range wireless communication between electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103, electronic device 101 can output feedback indicating that long-distance shooting is not feasible. For example, when the user is at a distance where long-distance shooting is not feasible, electronic device 101 can output voice feedback such as "Long-distance shooting is not feasible." For example, when the user is at a distance where long-distance shooting is not feasible, yellow or red can be provided to electronic device 101 and displayed on its screen. For example, when the user is at a distance where long-distance shooting is not feasible, vibration feedback information such as vibration can be provided to electronic device 101.

[0077] As described above, the electronic device 101 can identify the installation status of the electronic device 101 or the distance between the electronic device 101 and the external electronic device 103, and determine whether the electronic device 101 is in a state where long-distance shooting is feasible. In addition, the electronic device 101 can provide the user with feedback information related to the determined results.

[0078] Figure 5a This is a diagram illustrating an example of the installation state of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0079] refer to Figure 5a As Figure 1 The example of electronic device 101, a foldable electronic device 500, can be placed on table 530 in a first mounted state. Figure 4 In the operation of identifying the installation status of electronic device 101 in operation 410, the installation status of foldable electronic device 500 can be identified as the first installation status among multiple installation statuses.

[0080] The foldable electronic device 500 may include a first housing 510, a second housing 520, and a hinge 540 connecting the first housing 510 to the second housing 520. A first mounting state of the foldable electronic device 500 may be a state where the second housing 520, excluding the display, is placed on the surface of a table 530 at an angle within a first angle range formed by the first housing 510 and the second housing 520. In this first mounting state, a user of the foldable electronic device 500 can view images obtained from the camera of the foldable electronic device 500 through a display located outside the first housing 510.

[0081] The operation of determining that the foldable electronic device 500 is in a first mounting state may include: determining that, in a state where the foldable electronic device 500 is not shaken, the angle formed by the first housing 510 and the second housing 520 of the foldable electronic device 500 is within a first angle range and the second housing 520 is placed on the surface of the table 530.

[0082] When the state of the foldable electronic device 500 is determined to be the first installation state, the foldable electronic device 500 can receive control signals from the external electronic device 103 that receives user input, and obtain images from the camera of the foldable electronic device 500.

[0083] Figure 5b This is a diagram illustrating an example of the installation state of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0084] refer to Figure 5b As Figure 1 The example of electronic device 101, a foldable electronic device 500, can be placed on table 530 in a second mounting state. Figure 4 In the operation of identifying the installation state of the electronic device 101 in operation 410, the installation state of the foldable electronic device 500 can be identified as the second installation state among multiple installation states.

[0085] The foldable electronic device 500 may include a first housing 510, a second housing 520, and a hinge 540 connecting the first housing 510 to the second housing 520. A second mounting state of the foldable electronic device 500 may be a state where the second housing 520, excluding the display, is placed on the surface of a table 530 at a second angle range beyond a first angle range formed by the first housing 510 and the second housing 520. In this second mounting state, the user of the foldable electronic device 500 can view images obtained from the camera of the foldable electronic device 500 through a display located inside the first housing 510.

[0086] The operation of determining that the foldable electronic device 500 is in a second mounting state may include: determining that, in a state where the foldable electronic device 500 is not shaking, the angle formed by the first housing 510 and the second housing 520 of the foldable electronic device 500 is within a second angle range that exceeds a first angle range, and that the second housing 520 is placed on the surface of the table 530.

[0087] When the state of the foldable electronic device 500 is determined to be the second installation state, the foldable electronic device 500 can receive control signals from the external electronic device 103 that receives user input, and obtain images from the camera of the foldable electronic device 500.

[0088] Figure 5c This is a diagram illustrating an example of the installation state of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0089] refer to Figure 5c As Figure 1 The example of electronic device 101, foldable electronic device 500, can be placed on table 530 in a fourth mounting state. Figure 4 In the operation of identifying the installation state of the electronic device 101 in operation 410, the installation state of the foldable electronic device 500 can be identified as the fourth installation state among multiple installation states.

[0090] The foldable electronic device 500 may include a first housing 510, a second housing 520, and a hinge 540 connecting the first housing 510 to the second housing 520. A fourth mounting state of the foldable electronic device 500 may be: with the first housing 510 and the second housing 520 folded at an acute angle, the foldable electronic device 500 is placed on the surface of a table 530 such that the hinge 540 of the foldable electronic device 500 faces the sky.

[0091] The operation of determining that the foldable electronic device 500 is in the fourth mounting state may include the following operations: determining that the foldable electronic device 500 is placed on the surface of the table 530 such that the hinge 540 of the foldable electronic device 500 faces the sky when the first housing 510 and the second housing 520 are folded at an acute angle, and determining that the foldable electronic device 500 is placed on the surface of the table 530 in a state where the foldable electronic device 500 is not shaking.

[0092] When the state of the foldable electronic device 500 is determined to be the fourth installation state, the foldable electronic device 500 can receive control signals from the external electronic device 103 that receives user input, and obtain images from the camera of the foldable electronic device 500.

[0093] Figure 6This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining the quality of an image obtained by a camera through an electronic device, according to an embodiment. Figure 6 Operations 600 to 620 can be performed Figure 2 Execute between operation 210 and operation 230.

[0094] In operation 600, the electronic device 101 can determine whether the object has been photographed.

[0095] Electronic device 101 can receive user input and take pictures of objects via its camera. When electronic device 101 receives a control signal for taking pictures of the object from external electronic device 103 that receives user input, electronic device 101 can initiate the taking of pictures.

[0096] Determining the quality of the image obtained from the camera of electronic device 101, depending on whether electronic device 101 has already photographed the subject, can be divided into operations 610 and 620. When electronic device 101 has not yet photographed the subject, electronic device 101 can determine the quality of the preview image before photographing in operation 620. When electronic device 101 has already photographed the subject, electronic device 101 can determine the quality of the image after photographing in operation 610.

[0097] The operation 620 of determining the quality of the preview image by the electronic device 101 can be an operation in which the electronic device 101 determines whether at least one of the focus, composition, or viewing angle of the preview image meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101. For example, when an object in the preview image is out of focus and has blurriness (e.g., when the object is a person, the person's face appears blurry), the electronic device 101 can determine that the quality of the preview image does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101. For example, when the composition of the object and the background in the preview image is disproportionate (e.g., when the positions of the object and the background are unbalanced, when multiple objects are asymmetrical, etc.), the electronic device 101 can determine that the quality of the preview image does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101. For example, when the viewing angle of the preview image (e.g., the angle range of the scene to be photographed preset by the user) does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101, the electronic device 101 can determine that the quality of the preview image does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101. However, the criteria for determining the quality of a preview image are not limited to the focus, composition, and viewing angle of the preview image, and the electronic device 101 can determine the quality of the preview image in various ways according to the user's settings.

[0098] The operation 610 of the electronic device 101 to capture an object and determine the quality of the captured image may include the operation of the electronic device 101 to determine whether the captured image has jitter or whether the face of the object meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101.

[0099] For example, determining whether a captured image has jitter by electronic device 101 can determine whether the object or background in the captured image has jitter. For example, determining whether the face of an object in a captured image meets the preset standards of electronic device 101 can determine whether, when the object is a person, the object's facial expression is frowning or whether the object's eyes are closed. The preset standards of electronic device 101 can be directly set by the user of electronic device 101. Even if the user does not directly set the preset standards of electronic device 101, electronic device 101 can compare images captured by its camera with images previously stored in memory and determine whether the image quality meets the preset standards.

[0100] Operations 600 and 610 can be performed sequentially or in parallel. For example, when feedback information about the preview image is provided to the user after quality determination is performed in operation 610, the user can initiate shooting. For example, the user can simultaneously receive feedback information about the quality determination of the preview image and feedback information about the quality determination of the captured image through electronic device 101 or external electronic device 103.

[0101] When a user receives feedback based on the analysis results of a preview image or a captured image, the user can send subsequent control signals to the electronic device 101. For example, based on feedback regarding the composition or perspective of the preview image, the user can zoom in or out of the camera on the electronic device 101 via the external electronic device 103, and adjust the focus or perspective of the preview image. For example, based on feedback regarding the captured image, the user can initiate a re-capture by the electronic device 101 via the external electronic device 103.

[0102] Figure 7 This is a flowchart illustrating a method, according to an embodiment, for sending feedback information for remote shooting based on the connection status of multiple external electronic devices.

[0103] In operation 700, electronic device 101 can identify whether an external electronic device 103 is connected. The method for identifying the connection of the external electronic device 103 can be as described above. Figure 2 The identification method of the external electronic device 103 of the operation 230 is used for identification, but is not limited to this.

[0104] As a result of the electronic device 101 recognizing the external electronic device 103 in operation 700, the electronic device 101 can output feedback information in operation 710 when no external electronic device 103 is connected. For example, the user of the electronic device 101 can receive visual feedback information output through the display of the electronic device 101. For example, when the user performs remote shooting using the electronic device 101, if the subject being photographed is shaky, the electronic device 101 can output yellow or frowning / smiling on the display and notify the user that there is a problem with the captured photo. However, depending on the user's settings, feedback information can be output through the electronic device 101 even when an external electronic device 103 is connected to the electronic device 101.

[0105] When a connected external electronic device 103 is identified in operation 700, electronic device 101 can identify whether multiple connected external electronic devices 103 exist in operation 720. Identifying whether multiple connected electronic devices 103 exist can be used to determine multiple feedback output devices, which will be later... Figure 8 As described in the text.

[0106] When no multiple connected external electronic devices 103 are present in operation 720, operation 730 can be executed. In operation 730, electronic device 101 can send feedback information to the connected external electronic devices 103. Operation 730 can correspond to... Figure 2 Operation 260. Even when an external electronic device 103 is connected, electronic device 101 can output feedback information. Alternatively, electronic device 101 can output feedback information using both electronic device 101 and external electronic device 103.

[0107] When electronic device 101 identifies multiple external electronic devices 103 in operation 720, electronic device 101 can determine the priority of the feedback output devices in operation 740. Determining the priority of the feedback output devices may include selecting the external electronic device to receive feedback information. The priority can be determined based on the method by which the external electronic device 103 can output feedback information. For example, a smartwatch that provides both display and controller functions can be determined as having the highest priority. For example, a smart pen or smart ring that provides controller functions can be determined as having the second highest priority. For example, wireless headphones that only provide sound output functions can be determined as having the lowest priority. However, the above priority determination methods are merely examples and are not limited to these.

[0108] Based on the priorities determined in operation 740, electronic device 101 can send feedback information to the feedback output device according to the priority of the feedback output device in operation 750. Instead of sending feedback information only to the highest priority feedback output device, electronic device 101 can also send some of the multiple feedback messages to the highest priority feedback output device and the remaining feedback messages to the next lower priority feedback output device. See below for further details. Figure 8 An example is described in which multiple feedback messages are sent separately by electronic device 101 to multiple feedback output devices.

[0109] Figure 8 This is a flowchart illustrating a method, according to an embodiment, for an electronic device to separately send feedback information to multiple feedback output devices when multiple external electronic devices are connected to the electronic device.

[0110] According to an embodiment, Figure 8 Operations 800 to 830 can be executed Figure 2 The operation will be executed after step 230.

[0111] In operation 800, electronic device 101 can receive identification values ​​from multiple external electronic devices. Electronic device 101 can receive identification values ​​including model name, International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) code, manufacturer, operating system, version information, screen resolution of multiple external electronic devices 103, and identification values ​​of applications installed in external electronic devices 103.

[0112] In operation 810, electronic device 101 can identify the feedback output methods of multiple external electronic devices 103. Electronic device 101 can identify whether each of the multiple external electronic devices 103 supports a feedback output method via at least one of display, sound, and tactile functions. In addition to the feedback output methods of the external electronic devices 103, electronic device 101 can also identify whether the external electronic devices 103 have controller functionality. The reason why electronic device 101 identifies whether the external electronic devices 103 have controller functionality in addition to identifying the feedback output methods could be to enable the external electronic devices 103 to send subsequent control signals to the electronic device based on user input after receiving feedback.

[0113] In operation 820, electronic device 101 can select a combination of multiple feedback output devices from a plurality of external electronic devices based on output priorities associated with the feedback output method. Output priorities can be determined based on the number and type of functions supported by external electronic device 101. For example, electronic device 101 can determine an external electronic device (e.g., a smartwatch) that provides both display and controller functions as the highest priority. When only an external electronic device that provides only controller functions (e.g., a smart pen, a smart ring) is connected to electronic device 101, electronic device 101 can be determined as a feedback output device. When only external electronic devices that provide only sound functions (e.g., wireless headphones) and external electronic devices that provide only controller functions (e.g., a smart pen, a smart ring) are connected to electronic device 101, the external electronic device that provides only sound functions (e.g., wireless headphones) can be selected as the feedback output device.

[0114] For example, when electronic device 101 prioritizes an external electronic device (e.g., a smartwatch) that provides both display and control functions, the user of electronic device 101 can receive feedback information and control electronic device 101 through the external electronic device. For example, when only an external electronic device (e.g., a smart pen, smart ring) providing only control functions is connected to electronic device 101, electronic device 101 can output feedback information and control electronic device 101 through external electronic device 103. For example, when only external electronic devices (e.g., wireless headphones) and external electronic devices (e.g., smart pens or smart rings) providing only sound functions are connected to electronic device 101, electronic device 101 can provide feedback information through the external electronic device (e.g., wireless headphones) providing only sound functions and control electronic device 101 through the external electronic device (e.g., smart pen or smart ring).

[0115] For example, the priority determination is not limited to dividing the external electronic device 103 into external electronic devices to which feedback information is to be sent and external electronic devices to which control signals are to be sent, as described above. It can also be a combination of external electronic devices 103 to which electronic device 101 selects to send multiple feedback messages. For example, a combination of external electronic devices 103 to which multiple feedback messages are to be sent may include an electronic device 101 that selects to output visual feedback information and a wireless headset that outputs voice feedback information. For example, a combination of external electronic devices 103 to which multiple feedback messages are to be sent may include a smartwatch that selects to output visual feedback information and a wireless headset that outputs voice feedback information. For example, a combination of external electronic devices 103 to which multiple feedback messages are to be sent may include an electronic device 101 that selects to output visual feedback information, a wireless headset that outputs voice feedback information, and a smart pen that controls electronic device 101.

[0116] In operation 830, electronic device 101 can separately send feedback information to multiple selected feedback output devices. For example, electronic device 101 can output visual feedback information of a smiling face, and wireless headphones can output voice feedback information of "best shot." For example, a smartwatch can output visual feedback information of a smiling face and voice feedback information of "best shot." For example, electronic device 101 can output visual feedback information of blue, wireless headphones can output voice feedback information of "best shot," and a smart pen can be used to control the signal for re-shooting by electronic device 101.

[0117] The criteria and methods for prioritizing the separate transmission of multiple feedback messages to multiple feedback output devices are not limited to those for prioritization. Figure 8 In addition to those described herein, various feedback output devices may exist to determine criteria and selectable combinations.

[0118] Figure 9a and Figure 9b This is a diagram illustrating an example of output feedback information based on the installation status of an electronic device according to an embodiment.

[0119] Figure 9a Device 900 and Figure 9b The device 910 can correspond to Figure 1 Electronic device 101. Figure 9a This diagram illustrates a state where feedback information is displayed on a display of device 900 in a first mounting state where the angle formed by the first and second housings of device 900 is within a predetermined range. In the first mounting state, the feedback information can be output via an external display disposed outside the housing portion of device 900. Visual feedback information can be output via the external display. For example, such as... Figure 9aAs shown in the device 900, visual feedback information indicating that the result of the device 900 determining the quality of the image obtained from the camera of the device 900 meets the preset standard of the device 900 can be displayed on an external display of the device 900 and provided to the user of the device 900.

[0120] Figure 9b This diagram illustrates a state where feedback information is displayed on the display of device 910 in a second mounting state where the angle formed by the first and second housings of device 910 exceeds a predetermined range. In this second mounting state, the feedback information can be output via an internal display located inside the housing portion of device 910. Visual feedback information can be output via the internal display. For example, such as... Figure 9b As shown in the device 910, visual feedback information indicating that the result of the device 910 determining the quality of the image obtained from the camera of the device 910 meets the preset standard of the device 910 can be displayed on the internal display of the device 910 and provided to the user of the device 910.

[0121] Figure 10a and Figure 10b This is a diagram illustrating an example of feedback information output by an external electronic device when an image obtained by the camera of an electronic device meets the preset standards of the electronic device, according to an embodiment.

[0122] Figure 10a or Figure 10b This is a diagram illustrating an example of a smartwatch 1000 or 1010 outputting feedback information as an example of an external electronic device 103. Figure 10a The smartwatch 1000 determines the quality of the image obtained from the camera of the electronic device 101 to meet the preset standards of the electronic device 101, and therefore displays a smiley face image on the display of the smartwatch 1000 so that the user of the electronic device 101 can recognize the image as feedback information. Figure 10b The smartwatch 1010 is determined by the electronic device 101 to be of a quality that meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101, and therefore displays a blue image on the display of the smartwatch 1010 so that the user of the electronic device 101 can recognize the feedback information.

[0123] Figure 11a and Figure 11b This is a diagram illustrating an example of feedback information output by an external electronic device 103 when an image obtained by the camera of an electronic device does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device, according to an embodiment.

[0124] Figure 11a or Figure 11bThis is a diagram illustrating an example of a smartwatch 1100 or 1110 outputting feedback information as an example of an external electronic device 103. Figure 11a The smartwatch 1100 is determined by electronic device 101. The result shows that the quality of the image obtained from the camera of electronic device 101 does not meet the preset standards of electronic device 101, and therefore is displayed on the smartwatch 1100's screen as... Figure 10a Different smiley face images allow users of electronic device 101 to recognize the feedback information. Figure 11b The smartwatch 1110 is determined by electronic device 101 to have an image quality that does not meet the preset standard of electronic device 101 and therefore displays a yellow image on the display of smartwatch 1110 so that the user of electronic device 101 can recognize the feedback information.

[0125] Figure 12 This is a diagram illustrating an example of outputting multiple feedback messages to multiple feedback output devices when an image obtained by the camera of an electronic device meets the preset criteria of the electronic device, according to an embodiment.

[0126] Figure 12 This diagram illustrates an example of multiple feedback messages, where visual and voice feedback messages are sent separately to a smartwatch 1200 and a wireless headset 1210, which serve as examples of feedback output devices. When a user wears or carries both the smartwatch 1200 and the wireless headset 1210, the electronic device 101 can send both visual and voice feedback messages separately to the smartwatch 1200 and the wireless headset 1210 worn or carried by the user to ensure reliable transmission of the feedback messages. For example, when it is determined by the electronic device 101 that the quality of an image obtained from a camera meets the preset standards of the electronic device 101, the electronic device 101 can send visual feedback messages of a smiling face to the smartwatch 1200 and voice feedback messages of "best shot" to the wireless headset 1210. The electronic device 101 is not limited to selecting feedback output devices based on the aforementioned priorities, and can also provide feedback information to the next higher priority feedback output device, such as... Figure 12 As shown in the example.

[0127] Figure 13 An example is shown where, according to an embodiment, multiple feedback messages are output to multiple feedback output devices when an image obtained by the camera of an electronic device does not meet the preset standards of the electronic device.

[0128] Figure 13An example of multiple feedback messages is shown, in which visual feedback and voice feedback are sent separately to a smartwatch 1300 and a wireless headset 1310, which serve as examples of feedback output devices. When a user wears or carries both the smartwatch 1300 and the wireless headset 1310, the electronic device 101 can send both visual and voice feedback messages separately to the smartwatch 1300 and the wireless headset 1310 worn or carried by the user to ensure reliable transmission of feedback information. For example, when it is determined by the electronic device 101 that the quality of an image obtained from a camera does not meet the preset standard of the electronic device 101, the electronic device 101 can send visual and voice feedback messages separately to the smartwatch 1300 and the wireless headset 1310 worn or carried by the user to ensure reliable transmission of feedback information. Figure 12 Visual feedback information regarding different smiley face images is sent to the smartwatch 1300, and voice feedback information regarding "shaking" is sent to the wireless earphone 1310. The electronic device 101 is not limited to selecting the feedback output device based on the aforementioned priority, but can also provide feedback information to the next higher priority feedback output device, such as... Figure 13 As shown in the example.

[0129] Figure 14 This is a diagram illustrating an example of outputting multiple feedback messages separately to multiple feedback output devices according to an embodiment.

[0130] Figure 14 This diagram illustrates the scenario where feedback information is provided when only a wireless headset 1400, serving as an example of a feedback output device providing only sound functionality, is connected to an electronic device 101 as an external electronic device 103. When the electronic device 101 determines that the quality of an image obtained from its camera meets its preset standards, it can display visual feedback information of a smiling face on its display and send voice feedback information of "best shot" to the wireless headset 1400. By receiving feedback information from both the electronic device 101 and the external electronic device 103, the user of the electronic device 101 can better recognize the feedback information. For example, in long-distance shooting situations, even when receiving visual feedback information via the display of the electronic device 101, the user may not be able to recognize it. Therefore, by also receiving visual feedback information via the external electronic device 103, the user can receive the visual feedback information twice, thus compensating for situations where the user cannot recognize the visual feedback information. Figure 14 Examples are not limited to the aforementioned priorities, and can be examples of various ways of selecting feedback output devices.

Communication module 1590 may include one or more communication processors capable of operating independently of processor 1520 (e.g., application processor (AP)) and support direct (e.g., wired) or wireless communication. According to embodiments, communication module 1590 may include wireless communication module 1592 (e.g., cellular communication module, short-range wireless communication module, or Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) communication module) or wired communication module 1594 (e.g., local area network (LAN) communication module or power line communication (PLC) module). One of these communication modules can communicate with an external electronic device via a first network 1598 (e.g., a short-range communication network such as Bluetooth™, Wi-Fi Direct, or Infrared Data Association (IrDA)) or a second network 1599 (e.g., a long-range communication network such as a traditional cellular network, 5G network, next-generation communication network, the Internet, or a computer network (e.g., a LAN or a wide area network (WAN))). These various types of communication modules can be implemented as a single component (e.g., a single chip) or as multiple components separate from each other (e.g., multiple chips). The wireless communication module 1592 can identify and verify the electronic device 1501 in the communication network (such as the first network 1598 or the second network 1599) using user information (e.g., the International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI)) stored in the user identification module 1596.

Each of electronic device 1502 or electronic device 1504 can be a device of the same type as electronic device 1501, or a device of a different type. According to an embodiment, all or some operations that will be performed on electronic device 1501 can be performed on one or more of external electronic devices 1502, 1504, or 1508. For example, if electronic device 1501 is required to automatically perform a function or service or should perform a function or service in response to a request from a user or another device, electronic device 1501 may request the one or more external electronic devices to perform at least a portion of the function or service instead of running the function or service, or electronic device 1501 may request the one or more external electronic devices to perform at least a portion of the function or service in addition to running the function or service.

[0162] Electronic device 101 may include processor 1600, memory 1610, camera 1620, display 1630, and communication circuitry 1640. Memory 1610, camera 1620, display 1630, and communication circuitry 1640 may be operatively connected to processor 1600. Processor 1600 may correspond to... Figure 15 The processor 1520.

By executing the instructions stored in the memory 1610, the processor 1600 can control the camera 1620 and the display 1630 to acquire images through the camera 1620 of the electronic device 101 or to output feedback information through the display 1630. By executing the instructions stored in the memory 1610, the processor 1600 can control the external electronic device 103 or receive control signals from the external electronic device 103 through the communication circuit 1640.

[0164] By executing instructions stored in memory 1610, processor 1600 can perform... Figures 2 to 4 and Figures 6 to 8 The operation of the electronic device 101 shown.

[0165] Processor 1600 can acquire images from camera 1620. For example, processor 1600 can acquire a preview image before shooting or an image after shooting from camera 1620.

The feedback information may include information about whether at least one of the focus, composition, or viewing angle of the preview image meets preset criteria of the foldable electronic device.

[0180] According to embodiments of this disclosure, in a method for providing feedback information on remote shooting in a foldable electronic device, the image acquired by the camera may include a captured image. The feedback information may include information about whether the state of an object in the captured image meets preset criteria of the foldable electronic device.

[0181] According to embodiments of this disclosure, a foldable electronic device for providing feedback information for remote shooting may include at least one camera, a memory, a wireless communication circuit, and at least one processor operatively connected to the camera, the memory, and the wireless communication circuit. By executing instructions stored in the memory, the at least one processor can run a camera application for capturing an object using at least one camera of the foldable electronic device.
