Electronic device and image capture method thereof

摘要

An electronic device and an image capture method thereof are disclosed herein. The image capture method is suitable for an electronic apparatus including an image capture unit. The image capture method includes steps of: providing a first preview image by the image capture unit; detecting a first facial expression from the first preview image; providing a second preview image by the image capture unit after the first preview image; detecting the second facial expression from the second preview image; determining whether the second facial expression is matched to the first facial expression; and, automatically generating a second target image in response to the second facial expression is not matched to the first facial expression.

主权项

1. An electronic device, comprising:
a storage unit, configured to store a plurality of predetermined facial patterns, each of the predetermined facial patterns corresponding to one of different types or different degrees of facial expressions; and at least one processor, configured to be coupled with an image capture unit and the storage unit, the at least one processor being adapted to:
periodically refresh a first image by the image capture unit;detect a facial expression from the first image;determine whether the facial expression matches any one of the predetermined facial patterns;when the facial expression from the first image matches one of the predetermined facial patterns, determine whether the matched one of the predetermined facial patterns matches a previous matched facial pattern, the previous matched facial pattern is determined by matching a previous facial expression from a previous first image to the predetermined facial patterns; andcapture a target image according to the first image in response to the matched one of the predetermined facial patterns does not match the previous matched facial pattern.
