Dual Camera Image Synthesis via Automatic Edge Detection

The patent applies preliminary action by automatically performing image synthesis, cropping, and effect application in advance without requiring user intervention. The system pre-processes the front and rear camera images, automatically aligns them, applies selected effects, and prepares the final synthesized image for display, thereby eliminating the need for manual user manipulation and reducing time loss.

The system implements self-service by autonomously handling the entire image synthesis process. The controller automatically detects edges, crops images, selects and applies effects, and manages the synthesis workflow without user input. This self-service mechanism resolves the contradiction by making the system perform all necessary operations independently, achieving full automation while eliminating user manipulation time.

The system performs preliminary action by automatically positioning and overlaying images based on detected edges and predetermined rules. The controller pre-calculates the optimal positioning, automatically aligns the front and rear camera images, and overlays them without requiring manual user disposal operations. This eliminates the complexity of manual manipulation while maintaining positioning flexibility through automated algorithms.

The image overlay function implements self-service by autonomously handling all positioning and alignment operations. The system automatically detects image edges, determines overlay positions, and executes the positioning without user intervention. This self-service approach resolves the contradiction by eliminating manual manipulation steps while achieving ease of operation through intelligent automated positioning.

The system applies preliminary action by capturing images from both front and rear cameras simultaneously and performing synthesis operations in advance. The controller pre-coordinates both cameras to capture at the same moment, then immediately processes and synthesizes the images without delay. This preliminary capture and processing approach resolves the contradiction by achieving simultaneous image capture (improving productivity) while eliminating post-correction time delays.

The system implements continuity of useful action by maintaining an uninterrupted workflow from simultaneous camera capture through immediate synthesis and effect application. The process flows continuously without sequential delays, keeping both cameras operational simultaneously and processing images in real-time. This continuous operation resolves the contradiction by maximizing productivity through parallel camera usage while eliminating time loss through uninterrupted processing.

The controller implements universality by serving multiple functions: it coordinates both cameras, processes images from both sources, performs synthesis, applies effects, and manages display output. This multi-functional controller handles all complexity internally, allowing simultaneous camera operation to improve synthesis quality while the unified controller manages the complexity, preventing it from propagating to the user interface.

The system applies self-service by having the controller autonomously manage all aspects of dual-camera coordination without external intervention. The controller automatically synchronizes capture timing, aligns images, detects edges, determines overlay positions, and applies effects without user input. This self-service mechanism resolves the contradiction by containing device complexity within the automated control system while achieving high synthesis quality through coordinated multi-camera operation.
