Aspects relate to computer implemented methods and system to obtain self-pictures with an image capture device. The methods include receiving, by a processor, an input regarding a selected picture type to be captured, receiving, by an image sensor, a live image capture, identifying a subject in the live image capture, comparing the live image capture of the subject with a reference set based on the selected picture type, determining, based on the comparison, if the live image capture matches with the reference set, and providing feedback instructions regarding an adjustment to be made to improve matching between the live image capture and the reference set.

A shooting method includes: in a state in which a remote connection for sharing a shooting preview interface is established with the second terminal, receiving and displaying a first preview interface of the second terminal sent by the second terminal; receiving a first input performed by a user; and outputting first target shooting data in response to the first input, where the first target shooting data includes partial or all image information of the first preview interface, and the first target shooting data is a video or an image.

The present disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for setting an image capturing parameter of an image capturing device. The method includes acquiring current environment data that corresponds to a current environment and a device parameter of the image capturing device; sending a sample acquiring request to a server, the sample acquiring request including the current environment data and the device parameter; receiving sample data from the server associated with the current environment data and the device parameter, the sample data including one or more sample images; determining a target image capturing parameter based on the one or more sample images; and setting a current image capturing parameter of the image capturing device based on the target image capturing parameter.

An information processing apparatus operable to decide an item related to an image or image capturing for a recommendation to a user, the apparatus obtains image attribute information, derives image group attribute information for an image group including a plurality of images based on the image attribute information, compares image group attribute information derived for a first image group including images captured in a first time range and image group attribute information derived for a second image group including images captured in a second time range different to the first time range, and decides the item for the recommendation to the user in accordance with a result of the comparison.

A computer-implemented method includes capturing, with a camera, a first image of a physical item at a first camera position, detecting borders associated with the physical item, based on the first image, generating an overlay that includes a plurality of objects that are positioned within one or more of the borders associated with the physical item, capturing, with the camera, subsequent images of the physical item, where each subsequent image is captured with a respective subsequent camera position, and during capture of the subsequent images, displaying an image preview that includes the overlay. The method further includes establishing correspondence between pixels of the first image and pixels of each of the subsequent images and generating a composite image of the physical item, where each pixel value of the composite image is based on corresponding pixel values of the first image and the subsequent images.

A system and method are provided. The method comprises obtaining a camera live stream from a camera in a user device, the camera live stream including image data of a particular product; determining one or more image features common to images of one or more products based at least on image analysis of image data of the images of the one or more products; comparing the one or more image features to one or more image features of the image data of the particular product to generate one or more potential adjustments to the one or more image features of the image data of the particular product; and providing, for presentation together with the camera live stream on the user device, at least one indication based on the one or more potential adjustments to the one or more image features of the image data of the particular product.

An electronic device according to various embodiments includes a camera, a memory, a display, and a processor. The processor is configured to: based on an input for executing a camera application being received, identify first images shot within a region of a set range from a location of the electronic device from among a plurality of images, based on location information of the plurality of images stored in the memory or an external electronic device; select at least one second image from the first images, based on a priority of each of the first images; and, while displaying a preview image obtained through the camera on the display, display a visual object including a thumbnail image corresponding to the at least one second image on the display by overlaying the visual object on the preview image.

Systems and methods provide for an automated system for analyzing damage and processing claims associated with an insured item, such as a vehicle. An enhanced claims processing server may analyze damage associated with the insured item using photos/video transmitted to the server from a user device (e.g., a mobile device). The mobile device may receive feedback from the server regarding the acceptability of submitted photos/video, and if the server determines that any of the submitted photos/video is unacceptable, the mobile device may capture audio descriptions regarding the insured item. To aid in damage analysis, the server may also interface with various internal and external databases storing reference images of undamaged items and cost estimate information for repairing previously analyzed damages to similar items.

Systems and methods for capturing omnistereo content for a mobile device may include receiving an indication to capture a plurality of images of a scene, capturing the plurality of images using a camera associated with a mobile device and displaying on a screen of the mobile device and during capture, a representation of the plurality of images and presenting a composite image that includes a target capture path and an indicator that provides alignment information corresponding to a source capture path associated with the mobile device during capture of the plurality of images. The system may detect that a portion of the source capture path does not match a target capture path. The system can provide an updated indicator in the screen that may include a prompt to a user of the mobile device to adjust the mobile device to align the source capture path with the target capture path.

Provided is a mobile terminal including a camera, a display, and a controller. The controller is configured to display, on the display, an image identified by the camera, receive a touch input moving from a start position on the display, and capture the image, identified by the camera, based on a distance from a reference location to a position of the touch input.
