IMAGE STORAGE APPARATUS, IMAGE STORAGE METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 17923275 Titled 'IMAGE STORAGE APPARATUS, IMAGE STORAGE METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an image capturing device that consists of three main components: an image acquisition unit, a display processing unit, and a storage processing unit. The image acquisition unit captures images, which are then displayed on a screen by the display processing unit. The storage processing unit stores the first captured image in a storage unit.
The display processing unit continuously displays the latest image captured by the image acquisition unit in a separate region on the screen, while also displaying at least the edge of the first captured image in another region. The storage processing unit is responsible for storing the real-time image or any subsequent images in the storage unit as a second image, but only if the edge of the first image and the real-time image displayed on the screen meet a specific criterion of continuity.
Original Abstract Submitted
An image capturing apparatus includes an image acquisition unit, a display processing unit, and a storage processing unit. The display processing unit displays, on a display, an image acquired by the image acquisition unit. After the storage processing unit stores a first image in an image storage unit, the display processing unit repeatedly displays a latest image (a real-time image) generated by an image capturing unit, in a second display region being adjacent to a first display region, which is a part of the display, of the display, while displaying at least an edge of the first image in the first display region. Then, the storage processing unit performs processing for storing the real-time image or an image generated thereafter, in the image storage unit as a second image, when continuity of an edge of the first image and the real-time image in the display satisfies a criterion.
