Abstract
An electronic device and a method of capturing an image by an electronic device are provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a camera; a display configured to display an image captured through the camera; a memory configured to store the image; a sensor module configured to sense a multi-touch input; and a processor configured to execute an image capturing function using the camera, in response to at least one touch input of the sensed multi-touch input being released.
Claims20
An electronic device, comprising:
- a housing;
- a camera;
- a display configured to display an image captured through the camera;
- a memory configured to store the image;
- a sensor module configured to sense a multi-touch input;
- and
- a processor configured to execute an image capturing function using the camera, in response to at least one touch input of the sensed multi-touch input being released.
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a first camera facing a first surface of the housing;
- a second camera facing a second surface of the housing;
- a display configured to display an image captured by the first camera or the second camera;
- a sensor module configured to sense movement of the electronic device;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- analyze at least one of a location variation and an angle variation of the electronic device by using a physical quantity measured using the sensor module;
- and
- activate the second camera in response to the at least one of the location variation and the angle variation being greater than a specified magnitude.
A method of capturing an image by an electronic device including a camera, the method comprising:
- activating the camera;
- detecting a multi-touch input from a user;
- and
- executing an image capturing function using the camera, in response to at least one touch input of the multi-touch input being released.
