AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing technologies fail to capture images that reflect both horizontal correction and intentional tilt operations when using VR180 lenses, as they always perform horizontal correction, which prevents the representation of the photographer's intended tilt.

Method used

An electronic device that acquires camera attitude information to determine whether to perform tilt correction, allowing it to reflect intentional tilt operations while maintaining horizontal correction.

Benefits of technology

The solution enables both horizontal correction and the reflection of intentional tilt operations, ensuring accurate image representation and minimizing invalid areas in captured images.

Abstract

To provide a technology that can achieve both horizontal correction and reflection of intentional tilt operation.SOLUTION: An electronic apparatus according to the present invention includes acquisition means for acquiring information on the attitude of an imaging device when an image is captured, and control means for controlling, on the basis of the information, whether to perform tilt correction to bring the position in the image corresponding to the horizontal direction at the time of capture closer to the position corresponding to the front direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
