Image Processing Scheme Selection Based on User Movement
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Users face inconvenience in obtaining desired image processing results as they must pre-select shooting modes, and existing technologies do not efficiently allow for mode changes after image capture.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device processes images based on user movement data to determine and apply appropriate image processing schemes, such as panorama or surround modes, post-capture, to align with user intent.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user pre-selects a shooting mode before taking a photograph, then the image processing can be performed with a predetermined scheme, but the user cannot change the processing mode after capture and must retake the photograph if the wrong mode is selected
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by enabling the image processing mode to change from static (pre-selected only) to dynamic (changeable after capture). The system allows users to switch between different processing modes (e.g., panorama, surround, wide selfie) after the photograph is taken, making the processing scheme adaptable to user needs without requiring retaking of photographs.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent implements parameter changes by allowing modification of the image processing parameters (shooting modes) after the image is captured. The system stores multiple processing schemes and enables users to change the selected scheme based on post-capture requirements, effectively changing the processing parameters without re-acquiring the image data.
2Extent of automation
If the camera processes images automatically based on movement detection, then the processing can be applied without manual mode selection, but the system cannot adapt to specific user intent when movement is insufficient or ambiguous
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies feedback by enabling users to review the detected movement and processing results, then provide feedback to confirm or correct the automatic mode selection. The system allows users to check the detected shooting mode and manually adjust it if the automatic detection was inaccurate or didn't match their intent, thereby improving processing reliability while maintaining automation benefits.
