AI Technical Summary
In the prior art, when electronic devices using touch-sensitive surfaces and cameras capture and record images in multiple modes, the user interface operation is cumbersome, leading to increased latency and errors, and is not efficient enough, especially wasting energy on battery-powered devices.
By recording media images while displaying a live view of the camera on the monitor, and automatically switching recording modes using touch input on a touch-sensitive surface, the device reduces user input. The device automatically adjusts the recording mode based on the duration of contact and movement, providing an intuitive interface for viewing and editing media content sequences.
It enables faster and more efficient image capture and recording, reduces user input, improves device performance and user satisfaction, and saves battery power.
