The shooting method and the electronic device provided by the embodiment of the application are described in detail through specific embodiments and application scenes thereof with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of steps of a photographing method according to an embodiment of the present application is shown.

The embodiment of the application provides a shooting method which is applied to electronic equipment. The camera module can be one or a combination of more of a front camera, a rear camera, a single camera, a double camera or a plurality of cameras of the electronic equipment. In practical applications, the overall shape of the camera module may include, but is not limited to, circular, square, etc.

In the embodiment of the application, the electronic equipment can be a smart phone, a computer, a multimedia player, an electronic reader, a wearable device and the like. In the embodiment of the application, the electronic equipment can be provided with a flexible screen, a folding screen, a double-sided screen and the like. In addition, the electronic device further has various functional components including, but not limited to, fingerprint identification, infrared sensing, etc., and the embodiments of the present application are not described herein.

In the embodiment of the present application, only a photographing method when the image sensor of the photographing module is rotatably connected to the electronic device will be described in detail. When the camera module is fixedly arranged on the electronic equipment, the image shot by the camera module can be processed in modes of cutting, zooming and the like and then displayed, and the steps of cutting and zooming the image can be specifically referred to in the embodiment of the application.

The shooting method of the embodiment of the application specifically comprises the following steps:

step 301, a first input is received.

In this step, the user needs to activate the photographing function of the electronic device so that the electronic device can receive the first input. Specifically, the first input may also be used to trigger a shooting instruction to cause the electronic device to perform a shooting action.

In the embodiment of the application, the first input comprises touch, sliding, blank space input and the like performed on the screen of the electronic equipment by a user; the first input also includes input by a user on the electronic device to a physical key, including but not limited to, a press, etc. Moreover, the first input includes one or more inputs, wherein the plurality of inputs may be continuous or intermittent. The first input may also include a voice input, a limb motion input, and the like.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first input may also be a selection of a shooting mode. For example, the first input may cause the electronic device to switch between a plurality of photographing modes, such as a landscape photographing, a portrait photographing, a clockwise rotation 45 ° angle photographing, and the like.

Step 302, responding to a first input, and determining the imaging state of the current camera module; the imaging state corresponds to a shooting angle of view of the camera module.

In the embodiment of the application, the imaging state of the camera module can be understood as the corresponding imaging state of the camera module when different shooting angles of view are taken on the electronic equipment. In particular, the imaging state may include, but is not limited to, at least one of a plurality of imaging states including a landscape imaging state, a portrait imaging state, a 45 ° clockwise imaging state, and the like. The vertical imaging state is that the imaging angle of view in the Y-axis direction is larger than that in the X-axis direction when a user takes a picture; similarly, the imaging in the Y-axis direction is smaller than the imaging visual angle in the X-axis direction in the transverse imaging state, namely when a user shoots; in other imaging states, the ratio of the imaging viewing angles of the Y axis and the X axis, the inclination angle of the photographed image, and the like may be set according to the user's needs, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited herein.

In the embodiment of the application, the corresponding shooting view angle in the vertical imaging state can be default 0 degrees, and the corresponding shooting view angle in the horizontal imaging state can be the shooting view angle rotated by 90 degrees clockwise (or anticlockwise) from the default 0 degrees; the photographing angle of view corresponding to the clockwise 45 ° imaging state may be the photographing angle of view when the camera module is rotated 45 ° clockwise from the default 0 °.

It can be understood that in the embodiment of the application, the camera module can rotate 360 degrees without dead angles, and further the shooting view angle of the camera module corresponding to the imaging state can be any angle in the range of 0-360 degrees.

In the embodiment of the application, after the first input triggers the shooting function, the electronic device can enter a default shooting mode, namely a vertical screen shooting mode, the imaging state of the corresponding current shooting module is a vertical screen imaging state, and the corresponding shooting view angle can be 0 degrees by default.

Step 303, in the case that the current imaging state is different from the target imaging state, controlling the image sensor to rotate to a shooting angle of view corresponding to the target imaging state.

In the embodiment of the application, after the electronic equipment enters the default shooting mode, the user can judge whether the imaging state of the current shooting module is the target imaging state, namely whether the current shooting field angle is the same as the target shooting field angle, if not, the user can switch the shooting mode to the target shooting mode by executing the first input again. The shooting modes are in one-to-one correspondence with the imaging state of the shooting module and the shooting field angle of the shooting module.

For example, in a shooting scene, an imaging state that a user needs to shoot is a horizontal screen imaging state, and a current imaging state is a vertical screen imaging state, that is, a current shooting angle of view is 0 °, and then the image sensor of the shooting module needs to be controlled to rotate to a shooting angle of view of 90 ° corresponding to the horizontal screen imaging state, and then image shooting is performed.

As shown in fig. 4-a, a schematic view of a captured image in a capturing mode according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 4-B, a schematic view of a photographed image in another photographing mode according to an embodiment of the present application is shown.

In practical applications, when the camera module is installed on an electronic device, a default imaging state that the camera module enters after the camera function is turned on is usually set to a vertical imaging state, as shown in fig. 4-a. In the embodiment of the application, a user can trigger the shooting mode switching of the shooting module through a first input, so that the shooting module is switched from a shooting mode 1 shown in the current figure 4-A to a shooting mode 2 shown in the figure 4-B, the corresponding shooting view angle is switched from 0 degree of the figure 4-A to 90 degrees shown in the figure 4-B by rotating the image sensor of the shooting module, the corresponding imaging state is switched from the vertical screen imaging state shown in the figure 4-A to the horizontal screen imaging state shown in the figure 4-B, and finally the corresponding shooting image is switched from A to B (namely, the images in the black frame lines shown in the figures 4-A and 4-B). In the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the current position state of the electronic equipment (or the state of the electronic equipment held by the user) is not changed, the image sensor of the camera module is rotated, so that shooting at various angles is realized, the shooting convenience and shooting experience of the user are improved, and the problem of poor shooting experience caused by the fact that the user manually changes the position state of the electronic equipment is avoided.

Step 304, acquiring an image.

In the embodiment of the application, after the image sensor of the image pickup module rotates to a shooting field angle corresponding to the target imaging state, that is, when the current imaging state is the same as the target imaging state, the target content can be shot to acquire the image shot under the target field angle.

In summary, in the photographing method provided by the embodiment of the application, a first input is received; determining an imaging state of the current camera module in response to the first input; the imaging state corresponds to a shooting angle of view of the camera module; under the condition that the current imaging state is different from the target imaging state, the image sensor can be controlled to rotate to a shooting view angle corresponding to the target imaging state, and then the image is acquired, so that shooting at various angles can be realized under the condition that the current position state of the electronic equipment is not changed, the shooting convenience and shooting experience of a user are improved, and the problem that the shooting experience is poor due to the fact that the position state of the electronic equipment is manually changed by the user is avoided.

Optionally, step 301 may further include: an imaging area of the image sensor is acquired, the imaging area being an image acquisition area corresponding to an imaging state.

Prior to step 302, further comprising: and under the condition that the current imaging area is larger than or equal to the target imaging area corresponding to the target imaging state, acquiring an image in the current imaging area.

In the embodiment of the application, after responding to the first input, the imaging area of the image sensor can be acquired besides determining the imaging state of the current camera module. Because the imaging area corresponds to the imaging state, whether the imaging area corresponding to the current imaging state meets the imaging area corresponding to the target imaging state or not can be further judged through the acquired imaging area of the image sensor, or whether the image area corresponding to the target imaging state required by a user can be obtained through cutting, zooming and other means on the image in the imaging area corresponding to the current imaging state.

Specifically, there are various ways of determining whether the current imaging region satisfies the target imaging region, including but not limited to the following ways: judging the shape of the current imaging area and the shape of the target imaging area, judging whether the maximum outer diameter size of the current imaging area is larger than the maximum outer diameter size of the target imaging area along a first direction, wherein the first direction can be any direction in the plane of the imaging area, judging whether the area of the current imaging area is larger than the area of the target imaging area, and the like.

In the embodiment of the application, when the current imaging area is larger than or equal to the target imaging area, the image in the partial pixel area can be acquired in the current imaging area by image cutting and other modes, so that the target imaging requirement of a user can be met, and the image can be acquired in the current imaging area. In the case where the current imaging area is smaller than the target imaging area, it can be considered that the current imaging requirement of the user cannot be satisfied by the above-mentioned image processing means, and the image sensor can be controlled to rotate to acquire the image under the shooting angle of view corresponding to the target imaging state.

Optionally, step 302 may further include:

the position state of the electronic equipment is obtained. Wherein the position state corresponds to the current imaging state. Specifically, the location state of the electronic device includes: at least one of a vertical screen state, a horizontal screen state, a clockwise 45-degree angle state and the like. It can be understood that when the position state is a vertical screen state, the corresponding current imaging state is a vertical imaging state, and the corresponding current shooting view angle is 0 °; when the position state is a horizontal screen state, the corresponding current imaging state is a horizontal imaging state, and the corresponding current shooting view angle is 90 degrees; when the position state is a clockwise 45 ° angle state, the corresponding current imaging state may be a clockwise 45 ° angle imaging state, and the corresponding current photographing view angle is a clockwise 45 °.

In the embodiment of the application, when the electronic equipment enters the shooting mode, the initial position state (current position state) of the electronic equipment is consistent with the initial imaging state (current imaging state) of the shooting module. For example, when the initial position state of the electronic device is a portrait state, the initial imaging state of the camera module is a portrait state; when the initial position state of the electronic equipment is a horizontal screen state, the initial imaging state of the camera shooting module is a horizontal imaging state.

Where step 302 includes acquiring a location status of the electronic device, after the step of acquiring the image in step 304, it may further include:

under the condition that the position state is inconsistent with the target imaging state, the acquired shooting image is zoomed or cut and then displayed, or the acquired shooting image is rotated to be consistent with the position state and displayed in a full screen mode.

In some embodiments, after the electronic device receives the first input, in response to the first input, not only the imaging state of the current camera module may be determined, but also the position state of the electronic device may be obtained, so that when the position state is inconsistent with the target imaging state, the obtained captured image is displayed after image processing such as zooming, clipping, rotation, etc. is performed on the display screen, and thus, a user may obtain better image display effect and capturing experience.

As shown in fig. 4-a, in the case that the position state of the electronic device is a vertical screen state, the imaging state of the camera module is a vertical imaging state, the captured image is a, and at this time, the captured image acquired in the area a can be displayed on the display screen of the electronic device in a full screen manner; as shown in fig. 4-B, similarly, in the case where the position state of the electronic device is the portrait state, if the target imaging state of the user is the landscape imaging state, the image sensor is controlled to rotate to the shooting angle corresponding to the target imaging state, and then the shooting image in the B region is acquired, and it is obvious that the image acquisition regions of the shooting image acquired in the a region and the shooting image acquired in the B region are different, and it is also understood that the imaging ratio of the X axis and the Y axis of the picture is different. Because the position state of the corresponding electronic equipment is the vertical screen state, if the shot image of the B area is required to be displayed on the display screen of the electronic equipment, the shot image acquired in the B area can be scaled and then displayed on the display screen, or the acquired shot image corresponding to the B area is rotated, so that the shot image acquired in the B area is rotated until the position state of the electronic equipment is consistent and displayed in a full screen mode, and therefore, a user can more intuitively and clearly view the shot image, and further the shooting experience of the user is effectively improved.

In the embodiment of the application, the acquired shooting image is zoomed, cut or rotated to be consistent with the position state and displayed in a full screen, so that a user can obtain more shooting effects and shooting funs, and the shooting experience of the user is effectively improved.

It should be noted that, when the camera module is fixedly mounted on the electronic device, step 303 may also be implemented as follows:

under the condition that the current imaging state is different from the target imaging state, the acquired shooting image corresponding to the current imaging state is subjected to picture processing, so that the processed shooting image corresponds to a shooting view angle of the target imaging state; wherein the picture processing includes: at least one of clipping, rotation, or scaling.

As shown in fig. 5, an image processing schematic of a captured image according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. As shown in fig. 5, the current imaging state of the camera module is a vertical imaging state, when the photographed image is C (the Y-axis size is greater than the X-axis size), and the target imaging state is a horizontal imaging state, the photographed image C may be directly cut into an image D (the photographed image within the range of a dotted line, and the Y-axis size is less than the X-axis size) by means of image cutting, that is, the photographed image is cut into the horizontal imaging state from the vertical imaging state by means of the image cutting function and displayed on the display screen.

Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of an electrical principle of the electronic device according to the embodiment of the application. Fig. 7 is a schematic diagram showing a second electrical principle of the electronic device according to the embodiment of the application.

As shown in fig. 6 and fig. 7, in the embodiment of the present application, there are various ways of implementing rotation of the image sensor corresponding to the image capturing module of the electronic device 600, wherein one of the ways in which the image capturing module 601 is rotatably disposed on the electronic device, and the image sensor is driven to rotate by controlling the rotation of the whole image capturing module 601. Specifically, the electronic device 600 may further include: a processor 602, a driving circuit 603, and an actuator 604; the processor 602 is connected with the image capturing module 601 through the driving circuit 603 and the actuator 604, the processor 602 receives a rotation command signal sent by a user, converts the rotation command signal into a control signal, sends the control signal to the actuator 604 through the driving circuit 603, and the actuator 604 controls the image capturing module 601 to rotate according to the control signal so as to drive the image sensor to rotate.

In some embodiments, the electronic device may also include a location detection circuit 605; the position detection circuit 605 may be connected to the camera module 601, and is configured to detect a rotation position of the camera module 601 in real time, so as to determine whether the camera module 601 drives the image sensor to rotate to a preset position corresponding to the target imaging state. Specifically, the processor 602 is connected to the image capturing module 601 sequentially through the driving circuit 603 and the actuator 604, and the position detecting circuit 605 is connected to the image capturing module 601, the driving circuit 603 and the processor 602 respectively.

In the embodiment of the present application, in the case that the electronic device further includes a position detection circuit, step 104 may be implemented as follows:

detecting the rotation position of the camera module through a position detection circuit;

and acquiring an image when the rotation position is detected to reach a preset angle and a preset position corresponding to the target imaging state.

In the embodiment of the application, the rotation position of the camera module is detected in real time through the position detection circuit, so that whether the camera module drives the image sensor to rotate to the preset position corresponding to the target imaging state can be determined in real time, and when the camera module rotates to the preset position, the camera module is controlled to stop rotating through the driving circuit and the actuator, so that the image sensor can be driven to rotate through the rotation of the camera module, and the more accurate shooting beneficial effect can be achieved.

In the embodiment of the application, the specific implementation mode that the camera module can rotate on the electronic equipment is various. In one embodiment, when the camera module rotates as a whole to drive the image sensor to rotate, the electronic device may further include: the first driving piece is connected with the camera shooting module and used for driving the camera shooting module to rotate so as to change the shooting angle of view of the camera shooting module and realize multi-angle shooting. The first drive includes, but is not limited to, a motor, a magnetic drive (magnet, etc.), a pneumatic drive, etc.

It should be noted that, when the first driving member drives the whole camera module to rotate on the electronic device, the shape of the camera module may be any shape such as a circle, a square, etc., which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Optionally, in the case that the electronic device further includes the first driving element, step 103 may be implemented as follows:

and under the condition that the current imaging state is different from the target imaging state, controlling the first driving piece to drive the camera shooting module to rotate so as to enable the image sensor of the camera shooting module to rotate to a shooting view angle corresponding to the target imaging state.

In the embodiment of the application, when the electronic device further comprises a first driving piece, the actuator can be connected with the first driving piece so as to send the rotation instruction sent by the processor to the first driving piece through the actuator, and then the first driving piece drives the camera module to rotate.

In the embodiment of the present application, after the electronic device enters the shooting mode, it is determined that the current imaging state of the camera is the vertical imaging state, at this time, because the imaging state required by the user is the horizontal imaging state, a rotation instruction may be sent to the actuator by clicking the shooting interface of the display screen and by switching the shooting mode, the actuator controls and executes the rotation of the camera module by 90 ° and in the rotation process of the camera module, the position detection circuit detects the rotation position of the camera module in real time, and sends the position signal of the camera module to the processor, so that when the camera module rotates to the preset position (the position shown in fig. 7), the processor may timely control the camera module to stop rotating through the driving circuit and the actuator. In the embodiment of the application, the preset position corresponds to the target rotation position. According to the embodiment of the application, the shooting mode of the shooting module is controlled to integrally rotate, so that the shooting module can drive the image sensor to rotate under the condition of not changing the shooting position of the electronic equipment and the shooting posture of a user, shooting images with different shooting angles are obtained, and the flexibility and convenience of shooting by the user by using the electronic equipment are greatly improved.

In practical application, the principle of rotation of the camera module is to drive the image sensor of the camera module to rotate so as to change the photosensitive imaging on the image sensor, so that the rotation of the image sensor can cause the change of the photosensitive imaging on the image sensor under the condition that the dimensions of the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction of the image sensor are different.

In other embodiments, the camera module may be fixedly disposed on the electronic device, and the camera module has a rotatable image sensor. Fig. 8-a shows one of the hardware schematic diagrams of the camera module according to the embodiment of the application. Fig. 8-B shows a second schematic diagram of a hardware structure of the camera module according to the embodiment of the application. As shown in fig. 8, the camera module may include: a lens (not shown), and an image sensor 606 disposed opposite the lens, the image sensor 606 being rotatably disposed relative to the lens; the electronic device 600 further includes: a second driving member coupled to the image sensor for driving the image sensor 606 to rotate. The second drive may be identical to the first drive, including but not limited to a motor, a magnetic drive (magnets, etc.), a pneumatic drive, etc.

Alternatively, step 103 may be implemented as follows:

And under the condition that the current imaging state is different from the target imaging state, controlling the second driving piece to drive the image sensor to rotate to a shooting field angle corresponding to the target imaging state.

In the embodiment of the application, under the condition that the electronic equipment comprises the second driving piece, the camera shooting module can be fixedly arranged on the electronic equipment, and when the current imaging state of the camera shooting module is different from the target imaging state, the second driving piece can be controlled to drive the image sensor to rotate to a shooting field angle corresponding to the target imaging state. The driving circuit 603, the actuator 604, the position detecting circuit 605, and the like may be integrated in the image capturing module 601 (as shown in fig. 8-a and 8-B). Specifically, the driving circuit 603, the actuator 604, the position detecting circuit 605 and the image sensor may be integrated on a circuit board (abbreviated as a small board) in the camera module, so that the hardware structure is simpler.

In the embodiment of the application, after the electronic device enters the shooting mode, the imaging state corresponding to the default position of the image sensor can be a vertical imaging state (as shown in fig. 8-a), at this time, the user can switch the shooting mode at the shooting interface, the image sensor in the shooting module rotates under the drive of the second driving piece until the image sensor rotates to a shooting view angle corresponding to the target imaging state (as shown in fig. 8-B), and the rotation is stopped to shoot images. The position detection circuit is used for detecting the rotation position of the image sensor in real time. The specific control principle may refer to the execution control process of the controller, the actuator and the position detection circuit in the above embodiment, and the embodiments of the present application are not described herein again.

In practical application, the camera module can also comprise a camera bracket; the lens and the image sensor are arranged on the camera bracket. Under the condition that the camera shooting module is rotatably arranged on the electronic equipment as a whole, the lens and the image sensor can be fixedly arranged on the camera shooting support, the camera shooting support is rotatably arranged on the electronic equipment, and the first driving piece is connected with the camera shooting support so as to drive the lens and the image sensor to rotate on the electronic equipment simultaneously. Under the condition that the image sensor is rotatably arranged on the electronic equipment, the lens can be fixedly arranged on the camera shooting support, the camera shooting support is fixedly arranged on the electronic equipment, the image sensor is rotatably arranged on the camera shooting support, and the second driving piece is connected with the image sensor to drive the image sensor to rotate relative to the lens.

It can be appreciated that the image sensor according to the embodiment of the present application may be integrated on a circuit board, so that the second driving member is connected to the circuit board to directly drive the circuit board to rotate, and the structure is simpler.

In the embodiment of the present application, the position detection circuit may detect the position of the camera module or the image sensor by a plurality of modes such as magnetic induction and light induction, and the person skilled in the art may set the position detection circuit according to actual requirements, which is not described in detail in the embodiment of the present application.
