Framing Method for Multi-Channel Video Recording, Graphical User Interface, and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17920601 titled 'Framing Method for Multi-Channel Video Recording, Graphical User Interface, and Electronic Device

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a multi-channel video mode for electronic devices that allows separate display of images from different cameras in different areas of a viewfinder frame. This enables users to adjust the framing of each camera independently without affecting the framing of other cameras.

  • The multi-channel video mode allows separate display of images from different cameras in different areas of the viewfinder frame.
  • Users can adjust the framing of each camera by performing leftward or rightward sliding operations in the corresponding area.
  • The framing adjustment only affects the camera in that specific area, without changing the framing of other cameras.
  • This feature is particularly useful during multi-channel video recording, as it allows users to preview and adjust the framing of each working camera separately.
  • By avoiding the problem of one camera's framing affecting another camera's framing, users can ensure consistent and desired framing for each camera.

Potential Applications

  • Multi-camera video recording: This technology can be used in devices like smartphones or action cameras to enable users to record videos from multiple cameras simultaneously and adjust the framing of each camera independently.
  • Live streaming: Content creators who live stream events or performances can use this technology to switch between different camera angles and adjust the framing of each camera in real-time.
  • Security systems: Surveillance systems with multiple cameras can benefit from this technology by allowing users to monitor different areas and adjust the framing of each camera as needed.

Problems Solved

  • Avoids the problem of one camera's framing affecting another camera's framing in multi-channel video recording.
  • Provides users with the ability to independently adjust the framing of each camera, ensuring desired framing for each camera without interference.

Benefits

  • Enhanced control: Users can have precise control over the framing of each camera, allowing them to capture the desired shots without limitations.
  • Improved user experience: The ability to adjust framing independently in multi-channel video mode provides a more intuitive and user-friendly experience.
  • Consistent framing: By avoiding unintended changes in framing, users can ensure consistent and desired framing for each camera, resulting in better quality videos.


Original Abstract Submitted

In a multi-channel video mode, an electronic device may separately display a plurality of images from different cameras in a plurality of areas of a viewfinder frame. An image from one camera is displayed in one area, and a user operation such as a leftward sliding operation or a rightward sliding operation of a user in an area may be detected, to change framing presented by a corresponding camera in the area, without changing framing of another camera in a corresponding area. In this way, during multi-channel video recording, the user can separately adjust framing presented by each working camera in a preview frame, so that framing of each working camera in the preview frame does not affect each other, to avoid a problem that a change of framing of a working camera in the preview frame causes a change of framing of another working camera in the preview frame.
