Method and apparatus for controlling data overlaid upon an image

摘要

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate the display of data in conjunction with an image. In the context of a method, an image is caused to be presented and input is received via a rotatable dial wheel while the image is presented. The method also includes determining data to be presented based upon the input. In this regard, the method modifies the data to be presented in response so the rotation of the dial wheel. Further, the method causes the data that is determined based on the input to be presented concurrent with the image.

主权项

1. A method comprising:
causing an image to be presented; receiving input provided via a rotatable dial wheel while the image is presented; determining data to be presented based upon the input by cycling through a plurality of different types of instantaneous data in response to rotation of the dial wheel, wherein the instantaneous data defines a value of a parameter at a time at which the image that is caused to be presented was captured, and wherein determining data comprises modifying the data to be presented, while continuing to cause the image to be presented, in response to rotation of the dial wheel; and causing the data that is determined based on the input to be presented concurrent with the image.
