Camera Invocation Method and System, and Electronic Device - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18037719 titled 'Camera Invocation Method and System, and Electronic Device

Simplified Explanation

Abstract: A camera invocation method allows multiple applications on an electronic device to simultaneously display a real-time image captured by the device's camera. The method includes preview interfaces for each application, enabling them to share the camera.

Patent/Innovation Explanation:

  • Camera invocation method for electronic devices
  • Multiple applications can display real-time images captured by the device's camera
  • Each application has its own preview interface
  • Applications share the camera resource

Potential Applications:

  • Video conferencing apps can display the camera feed while other apps are running
  • Augmented reality apps can overlay virtual objects on the camera feed
  • Photography apps can provide real-time previews while editing or applying filters
  • Security apps can monitor the camera feed while other tasks are being performed

Problems Solved:

  • Prior to this method, only one application could access the camera at a time
  • Users had to switch between apps to use the camera functionality
  • Lack of simultaneous camera access limited multitasking capabilities

Benefits:

  • Enhanced multitasking capabilities on electronic devices
  • Improved user experience by allowing multiple apps to utilize the camera simultaneously
  • Enables new functionalities and possibilities for various applications


Original Abstract Submitted

A camera invocation method includes preview interfaces corresponding to a plurality of applications in an electronic device that simultaneously display an image captured in real time by a camera of the electronic device, where the applications share the camera.
