METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CAPTURING IMAGE IN PORTABLE TERMINAL

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for capturing an image in a portable terminal. Upon receiving an image for preview and an image for capture simultaneously by a camera module, the controller simultaneously outputs the image for the preview and the image for the capture to a main controller during a simultaneous output mode. The received image for the preview is displayed and stored for a predetermined time period for a subsequent retrieval, so that when a capture key is pressed to capture a target object, the stored image corresponding to a time point at which the capture key is activated is retrieved and stored.

主权项

1. An apparatus comprising:
a display; a memory; a camera module; and a controller, the controller configured to:
obtain a light signal, via the camera module;generate an image data using the light signal via the camera module, while generate a preview image data using the light signal using a resolution corresponding to the display;display the preview image data while temporarily storing the image data in the memory;determine if an input is received at a time that the preview image data is displayed; andstore the image data, in a region of the memory, corresponding to the preview image data displayed at the time, based at least in part on the determination.
