Abstract
A method may include determining whether an image area of an image capture device includes an image associated with a user/owner of the image capture device. Self-portrait optimization processing is performed when the image area includes an image associated with a user/owner. An image is captured based on the self-portrait optimization processing.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- determining whether an image area of an image capture device includes an image associated with a user/owner of the image capture device;
- performing self-portrait optimization processing when the image area includes an image associated with the user/owner;
- and
- capturing the image based on the self-portrait optimization processing.
1 more element
A device comprising:
- an image capturing assembly to frame an image for capturing;
- a viewfinder/display for outputting the framed image to the user prior to capturing;
- an input element to receive user commands;
- and
- a processor to:
- determine whether the framed image includes an image associated with a user/owner of the device;
- perform self-portrait optimization processing when the framed image includes an image associated with the user/owner;
- and
- capture the image based on the self-portrait optimization processing.
6 more elements
A computer-readable medium having stored thereon a plurality of sequences of instructions which, when executed by at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
- determine whether an image framed by an image capture device includes an image associated with a user/owner of the image capture device;
- perform self-portrait optimization processing when the framed image includes an image associated with the user/owner;
- and
- capture the image based on the self-portrait optimization processing.
