Method of performing half-shutter function using optical object recognition and method of capturing image using the same

A method of capturing an image, the method comprising:

• displaying a shutter button on a display panel by driving a portion of a plurality of light sources included in the display panel, the portion of the plurality of light sources being disposed to correspond to an object recognition window of the display panel;
• continuously obtaining a plurality of images based on reflected light received by an object recognition sensor through the object recognition window while driving the portion of the plurality of light sources;
• performing a half-shutter function based on a half-shutter input, the half-shutter input being detected based on a first image among the plurality of images;
• and
• performing an image capturing function based on a full-shutter input,
• wherein the performing the half-shutter function includes:
• determining whether the first image includes a first object, the first object having a half-shutter state;
• and
• performing a half-shutter process based on the half-shutter state of the first object included in the first image.

A method of performing a half-shutter function using optical object recognition, the method comprising:

• executing and displaying, on a display panel, an image capturing application providing an image capturing function, the display panel including a plurality of light sources;
• displaying a shutter button on the display panel by driving a portion of the plurality of light sources, the portion of the plurality of light sources being disposed to correspond to an object recognition window of the display panel;
• prior to receiving a full-shutter input, continuously obtaining a plurality of images based on reflected light received by an object recognition sensor through the object recognition window while driving the portion of the plurality of light sources, and determining that a first image among the plurality of images includes a first object having a half-shutter state;
• and
• performing a half-shutter process based on the half-shutter state of the first object included in the first image,
• wherein it is determined that the first image includes the first object having the half-shutter state based on a result of performing at least one of a spatial signal processing and a frequency signal processing on the first image.
