Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices for in-display camera activation are described. The method includes receiving a request to activate a camera of the device, identifying a start of frame marker associated with activating the camera in response to the request, and emitting a signal to a display of the device in response to the identified start of frame marker, where the emitted signal triggers the display to transition a set of liquid crystal elements of the display from a display mode to a camera mode for camera operation.
Claims23
A method for in-display camera activation by a device, comprising:
- receiving a request to activate a camera of the device;
- identifying a start of frame marker associated with activating the camera in response to the request;
- and
- emitting a signal to a display of the device in response to the identified start of frame marker, wherein the emitted signal triggers the display to transition a set of elements of the display from a display mode to a camera mode for camera operation.
An apparatus for in-display camera activation, comprising:
- a processor,
- memory coupled with the processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
- receive a request to activate a camera of the apparatus;
- identify a start of frame marker associated with activating the camera in response to the request;
- and
- emit a signal to a display of the apparatus in response to the identified start of frame marker, wherein the emitted signal triggers the display to transition a set of elements of the display from a display mode to a camera mode for camera operation.
A device for in-display camera activation, comprising:
- a camera;
- a display comprising a set of elements;
- at least one processor;
- memory coupled with the at least one processor;
- and
- instructions stored in the memory and executable by the at least one processor to cause the camera to:
- receive a request to activate the camera;
- identify a start of frame marker associated with activating the camera in response to the request;
- and
- emit a signal to the display of the device in response to the identified start of frame marker, wherein the emitted signal triggers the display to transition a set of elements of the display from a display mode to a camera mode for camera operation.
