Abstract
Systems and methods for setting a focal transition for an image capturing device receive data including user selections of focal settings for respective areas of interest in an image, generate a first interface that includes indicators of the focal settings for the respective areas of interest, receive data including user selections of transitional focal settings for respective transitional areas between the areas of interest, and generate a second interface, the second interface including indicators of the transitional focal settings for the respective transitional areas between the areas of interest.
Claims19
A method for setting a focal transition for an image capturing device, the method comprising:
- receiving data including user selections of focal settings for respective areas of interest in an image;
- generating a first interface that includes indicators of the focal settings for the respective areas of interest;
- receiving data including user selections of transitional focal settings for respective transitional areas between the areas of interest;
- and
- generating a second interface, the second interface including indicators of the transitional focal settings for the respective transitional areas between the areas of interest.
A system for setting a focal transition, the system comprising:
- a computer-readable medium;
- an input interface configured to receive data that indicates selections from a user;
- and
- one or more processors configured to cause one or more computing devices to
- generate a first interface indicating focal settings for respective areas of interest in an image,
- receive data indicating one or more user selections, the one or more user selections indicating focal settings for areas between the areas of interest in the image, and
- generate a second interface indicating the focal settings for the areas between the areas of interest in the image.
One or more computer-readable media storing instructions that, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform operations comprising:
- receiving one or more first user selections, the one or more first user selections indicating transitional focal settings between a first focal setting and a second focal setting, wherein the first focal setting is associated with a first area of an image, the second focal setting is associated with a second area of the image, and the transitional focal settings are associated with a transitional area of the image between the first area and the second area;
- and
- generating a first interface indicating the transitional focal settings between the first focal setting and the second focal setting.
