Disclosed herein is a method for generating an image using an electronic device having a color camera, comprising: activating the color camera and a camera application on the electronic device; displaying, through the camera application, a preview image generated by the color camera; determining, automatically, whether the preview image includes an image of a first object; displaying, through the camera application in response to a determination that the preview image includes the image of the first object, a first image generated by the color camera, the first image including a color region corresponding to the first object and a grayscale region corresponding to objects that are not the first object; and displaying, through the camera application in response to a determine that the preview image does not include any image of the first object, a second image generated by the color camera, the second image is a grayscale image.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for presenting available functions for a captured image. The program and method provide for selecting a subset of functions from among a set of functions for applying to an image captured by a device camera; causing display of a first interface for presenting the subset of functions, the first interface including a group of icons, each of which is user-selectable to perform a respective function within the subset, the first interface further including an additional icon selectable to switch to a second interface; and causing, in response to user selection of the additional icon, to switch to display of the second interface for presenting the set of functions, the second interface including a list of entries, each of which is user-selectable to perform a respective function within the set of functions.

A control apparatus includes at least one processor configured to acquire information corresponding to a position at which an observer stares, wherein the information indicates a shift in the position, and control a display unit to display an indicator corresponding to the position, wherein, in a case where a shift in the position is continuously smaller than a first threshold a first number of times, a display position of the indicator is not shifted.

A computing device automatically determines when a user wishes to capture an image of an object in a scene via a camera of the computing device. In response, the computing device presents at a display screen an image of the scene together with an overlay template. The overlay template corresponds in shape to the object in the scene and is overlaid on the object in the scene when displayed at the display screen. The overlay template is not displayed at the display screen when the computing device does not determine that a user wishes to capture an image of an object in the scene.

A photographing method in a telephoto scenario and a mobile terminal are disclosed, which are related to the field of communications technologies, so as to improve sharpness of a photographed object in an image, blur a background, highlight the photographed object, and improve an overall visual effect of the image. The method specifically includes: in a telephoto photographing scenario, when a mobile terminal display a preview or photographed image, recognizing a target photographed object and a background of the target photographed object based on the image collected by a camera; and improving image sharpness of an area in which the target photographed object is located, and adding a blurring effect to the image of the area in which the background of the target photographed object is located.

Certain embodiments provide an imaging method for a non-line-of-sight object and an electronic device. In certain embodiments, the method includes: detecting a first input operation; and generating first image data in response to the first input operation. The first image data is imaging data of the non-line-of-sight object obtained by fusing second image data and third image data. The first image data includes position information between the non-line-of-sight object and a line-of-sight object. The second image data is imaging data of the line-of-sight object captured by the optical camera. The third image data is imaging data of the non-line-of-sight object captured by the electromagnetic sensor.

A method for processing videos is provided. The method includes: displaying video frames in a first video based on a video recording interface in response to a participation instruction for video stitching; determining a selected target video frame in response to a selection operation on any of the video frames; determining an insertion position of a second video based on the target video frame, and acquiring a target video by stitching the second video and the first video based on the insertion position; and publishing the target video.

A video image stabilization processing method and an electronic device are provided and related to the field of electronic technologies. The method includes: in a multi-view recording mode, cropping, by using a target object as a center, a video picture captured by a front-facing camera or a video picture with a large zoom ratio, to achieve picture stabilization; and compensating another video picture according to a motion feature of an electronic device, to achieve picture stabilization.

A method and an electronic device are provided for editing video using objects of interest included in the video. An electronic device includes a camera, a memory, and a processor. The processor may obtain first video data through the camera, while obtaining the first video data, determine a first object of interest in a plurality of image frames included in the first video data, store, in the memory, second video data generated from the first video data based on the first object of interest, after generating the second video data, receive a user input for determining a second object of interest, different from the first object of interest, in the plurality of the image frames included in the first video data, and in response to receiving the user input, store, in the memory, third video data generated from the first video data based on at least the second object of interest.

A recording apparatus includes a control unit configured to set the input additional information as recording additional information to be recorded together with a moving-image file, in response to input of the additional information, and a recording control unit configured to record moving-image data in a recording medium as the moving-image file, and record an additional information file including the recording additional information set by the control unit in the recording medium, in association with the moving-image file, wherein, in a case where the additional information is input by an input unit during recording of the moving-image file in the recording medium, the control unit sets the input additional information as the recording additional information at end of recording of the moving-image file, without setting the input additional information as the recording additional information in response to the input of the additional information by the input unit.
