Abstract
A method and apparatus for compositing images in a portable terminal are provided. The method includes acquiring a plurality of images, displaying a plurality of candidate composition regions in each of the plurality of images, selecting a composition region of each of the plurality of images based on a user input, and compositing the plurality of images by using the composition regions of the plurality of images.
Claims18
An apparatus for compositing images in a portable terminal, the apparatus comprising:
- a first camera;
- a second camera;
- a memory;
- an input unit configured to receive inputs;
- a display unit configured to display images on a screen;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- control the first camera to receive a first image,
- control the second camera to receive a second image,
- control the display unit to display the first image on the screen,
- control the input unit to receive a first input for selecting a composition region on the first image, wherein the composition region is a region on the first image where the second image is to be displayed;
- in response to receiving the first input for selecting the composition region, control the display unit to display the second image at the selected composition region of the first image,
- change a position of the selected composition region, which displays the second image, on the first image,
- control the display unit to display the second image on the changed position of the selected composition region on first image, and
- control to composite the second image on the first image at the changed position by an alpha-blending technique and store the composited first image and second image as a third image to the memory, wherein the composition region of the first image is to be used as a background of the second image.
