PHOTOGRAPHING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18545780 titled 'PHOTOGRAPHING METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

The patent application describes a method and electronic device for tracking a moving object during photography to improve focusing accuracy.

  • Display a first image with a tracked target and a tracking indicator.
  • Show a second image without the target or tracking indicator.
  • Present a third image with the target.
  • Automatically set the target and display the tracking indicator.
  • Automatically focus on the target in the third image.
    • Key Features and Innovation:**
  • Continuous tracking of a target in motion for improved focusing accuracy.
  • Automatic adjustment of focus when the target reappears in the frame.
  • Utilization of tracking indicators to assist in maintaining focus on the target.
    • Potential Applications:**

This technology can be used in sports photography, wildlife photography, and any situation where the subject is in motion and needs to be accurately focused on.

    • Problems Solved:**

This technology addresses the challenge of maintaining focus on a moving target during photography, resulting in sharper and more precise images.

    • Benefits:**
  • Enhanced focusing accuracy on moving objects.
  • Improved image quality in dynamic photography scenarios.
  • Simplified tracking and focusing process for photographers.
    • Commercial Applications:**

This technology can be applied in professional photography equipment, mobile devices with advanced camera features, and surveillance systems requiring precise tracking capabilities.

    • Questions about the Technology:**

1. How does this technology improve focusing accuracy in photography? 2. What are the potential limitations of this tracking method in different lighting conditions?


Original Abstract Submitted

A photographing method and an electronic device are provided, so that a to-be-photographed target can continue to be tracked after the to-be-photographed target returns to a shooting image, to improve accuracy of focusing performed during photographing of a moving object. The method includes: displaying a first image including a first object and a tracking indicator that is associated with the first object, the tracking indicator indicating that the first object is a tracked target; displaying a second image that does not include the first object or the tracking indicator; displaying a third image including the first object; automatically setting the first object as the tracked target and displaying the tracking indicator associated with the first object; and automatically focusing on the first object when displaying the third image.
