Apparatus and method for photographing timer control of a camera of a terminal

摘要

Terminals, methods, and apparatuses for controlling a photographing timer of a camera operating in a terminal, such as a mobile terminal, including a photographing timer control apparatus, and may include: a display unit to display a photographing icon on the terminal to set a time for a photographing timer of a camera of the terminal, a timer value computing unit to compute or determine a self-timer value based on a touch duration of a touch input on the photographing icon when the touch input is provided at a position corresponding to the photographing icon, and a control unit to control a photographing operation of the photographing timer of the camera of the terminal, based on the self-timer value computed or determined by the timer value computing unit.

主权项

1. A terminal to control operation of a photographing timer of a camera of the terminal, the terminal comprising:
a display unit to display a photographing icon to set a time for a photographing timer and to receive a touch input on the displayed photographing icon; a timer value computing unit to determine a self-timer value for the photographing timer based on at least one of a touch duration of the touch input received on the photographing icon, a location at a position at which the touch input is detected, and a location at a position at which the touch input is terminated; and a control unit to control the operation of the photographing timer of the camera of the terminal based on the determined self-timer value.
