Image display with selective depiction of motion

A device to display a motion image that comprises a plurality of frames, the device comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a non-transitory computer readable medium coupled to the processor, with instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
• determining a type of a subject and a level of movement of the subject in a motion image that includes a plurality of frames;
• calculating a motion score for the motion image based on the type of the subject and the level of movement of the subject;
• determining a respective motion score of one or more other images, wherein the motion image is displayed as part of a user interface that includes the one or more other images;
• selecting a display threshold based on the respective motion scores of the one or more other images;
• determining whether the motion score meets the display threshold;
• if the motion score meets the display threshold, causing the motion image to be displayed in the user interface with subject motion by displaying the plurality of frames of the motion image in succession;
• and
• if the motion score does not meet the display threshold, causing the motion image to be displayed in the user interface without subject motion by displaying a particular frame of the plurality of frames of the motion image.

A non-transitory computer readable medium with instructions stored thereon that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• determining a type of a subject and a level of movement of the subject in a motion image that includes a plurality of frames;
• calculating a motion score for the motion image based on the type of the subject and the level of movement of the subject, wherein calculating the motion score comprises:
• determining whether the level of movement of the subject meets a threshold level of movement, wherein the threshold level of movement is based on the type of the subject;
• if it is determined that the level of movement of the subject meets the threshold level of movement, setting the motion score to a value that meets a display threshold;
• and
• if it is determined that the level of movement of the subject does not meet the threshold level of movement, setting the motion score to a value that does not meet the display threshold;
• determining whether the motion score meets the display threshold;
• if the motion score meets the display threshold, causing the motion image to be displayed with subject motion by displaying the plurality of frames of the motion image in succession;
• and
• if the motion score does not meet the display threshold, causing the motion image to be displayed without subject motion by displaying a particular frame of the plurality of frames of the motion image.
