Abstract
An image capture device includes an image capture unit, a switching unit, a calculation unit, a comparison unit, and a display unit. The image capture unit captures consecutive images. The switching unit switches to a playback mode. The calculation unit calculates each of gradient values between adjacent pixels within each the image and cumulates a total value composed of the gradient values of the image. The comparison unit compares different total values corresponding to different images to determine the image having a maximum total value. The display unit displays the acquired image.
Claims18
An image capture device, comprising:
- a display unit having a playback mode;
- an image capture unit configured for capturing a plurality of consecutive images;
- a storage unit configured for storing the plurality of consecutive images captured by the image capture unit;
- a switching unit configured for switching the display unit to a playback mode;
- a calculation unit
- a comparison unit and
- wherein, when the display unit is switched into the playback mode, the display unit displays the plurality of consecutive images stored in the storage unit, the calculation unit calculates gradient values between every two adjacent pixels within each of the plurality of consecutive images, respectively accumulates magnitudes of the gradient values of each of the plurality of consecutive through images, and acquires a plurality of total values according to the accumulation, and the comparison unit compares the total values corresponding to the plurality of consecutive through images, and determines which through image has a maximum total value according to the comparison.
An image capture device, comprising:
- an image capture unit configured for capturing a plurality of consecutive images;
- a switching unit configured for switching to a playback mode;
- a calculation unit configured for calculating gradient values between adjacent pixels within the images and a total value of composed of the gradient values within the image;
- a comparison unit configured for comparing different total values corresponding to different images to determine the image having a maximum total value;
- a display unit configured for displaying the acquired images;
- a flagging unit configured for flagging the image having the maximum total value with a specific symbol;
- and
- a deletion unit configured for deleting images without the specific symbol displayed by the display unit in response to user input.
A digital image processing method, comprising:
- capturing a plurality of consecutive images via an image capture unit;
- storing the plurality of consecutive images captured by the image capture unit in a storage unit;
- switching a display unit into a playback mode;
- displaying the plurality of consecutive images stored in the storage unit via the display unit, calculating gradient values between every two adjacent pixels within each of the plurality of consecutive images, respectively accumulating magnitudes of the gradient values of each of the plurality of consecutive images, and acquiring a plurality of total values according to the accumulation, comparing the total values of the images and determining which image among the plurality of consecutive images has a maximum total value according to the comparison, when the display unit is switched into the playback mode;
- and
- displaying the image having the maximum total value.
