DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHING APPARATUS INCLUDING A PLURALITY OF OPTICAL SYSTEMS FOR ACQUIRING IMAGES UNDER DIFFERENT CONDITIONS AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17961771 titled 'DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHING APPARATUS INCLUDING A PLURALITY OF OPTICAL SYSTEMS FOR ACQUIRING IMAGES UNDER DIFFERENT CONDITIONS AND METHOD OF OPERATING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a digital photographing apparatus that includes two optical systems and a processor. The first optical system captures a wide-angle image of a subject, while the second optical system captures a telephoto image with the subject zoomed. The processor determines whether to generate a synthesized image of the wide-angle and telephoto images based on factors such as the illuminance of the subject and the distance between the apparatus and the subject.
- The digital photographing apparatus has two optical systems - one for wide-angle images and one for telephoto images.
- The processor analyzes the illuminance of the subject and the distance between the apparatus and the subject.
- Based on this analysis, the processor decides whether to generate a synthesized image combining the wide-angle and telephoto images.
Potential Applications
- Photography: This technology can be used in digital cameras or smartphones to enhance the quality of images by combining wide-angle and telephoto perspectives.
- Videography: The apparatus can be utilized in video cameras to capture high-quality footage with both wide-angle and zoomed-in shots.
- Surveillance: The technology can be applied in surveillance cameras to capture detailed images of subjects at different distances.
Problems Solved
- Limited perspective: Traditional cameras often struggle to capture both wide-angle and zoomed-in shots effectively. This apparatus solves this problem by combining the two perspectives.
- Image quality: By analyzing factors like illuminance and distance, the apparatus ensures that the synthesized image maintains high quality and clarity.
- Convenience: Users no longer need to switch between different lenses or cameras to capture wide-angle and telephoto images.
Benefits
- Versatility: The apparatus allows users to capture a wide range of perspectives, from wide-angle to zoomed-in shots, without the need for additional equipment.
- Enhanced image quality: By combining the wide-angle and telephoto images, the synthesized image can provide more detail and depth.
- User-friendly: The processor automatically determines whether to generate a synthesized image, making it convenient for users without requiring manual intervention.
Original Abstract Submitted
A digital photographing apparatus is provided. The digital photographing apparatus includes a first optical system configured to acquire a wide-angle image including a subject, a second optical system configured to acquire a telephoto image with the subject zoomed, and a processor configured to determine whether to generate a synthesized image of the wide-angle image and the telephoto image based on one or more of an illuminance of the subject and a distance between the digital photographing apparatus and the subject.
