Currently, examples of some terminal devices are: a mobile phone, a tablet, a smart television, a notebook, a tablet (Pad), a palm, a mobile internet device (mobile internet device, MID), a Virtual Reality (VR) device, an augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) device, a wireless terminal in an industrial control (industrial control), a wireless terminal in an unmanned (self driving), a wireless terminal in a teleoperation (remote medical surgery), a wireless terminal in a smart grid (smart grid), a wireless terminal in a transportation security (transportation safety), a wireless terminal in a smart city (smart home), a wireless terminal in a smart home (smart home), a cellular phone, a cordless phone, a session initiation protocol (session initiation protocol, SIP) phone, a wireless local loop (wireless local loop, WLL) station, a personal digital assistant (personal digital assistant, PDA), a handheld device with wireless communication function, a computing device or other processing device connected to a wireless modem, a vehicle-mounted device, a wearable device, a terminal device in a 5G network, or a terminal in an evolving network, a public communication system, a specific embodiment of the present application is not implemented in the future network (public land mobile network).

By way of example, and not limitation, in embodiments of the present application, the terminal device may also be a wearable device. The wearable device can also be called as a wearable intelligent device, and is a generic name for intelligently designing daily wear by applying wearable technology and developing wearable devices, such as glasses, gloves, watches, clothes, shoes and the like. The wearable device is a portable device that is worn directly on the body or integrated into the clothing or accessories of the user. The wearable device is not only a hardware device, but also can realize a powerful function through software support, data interaction and cloud interaction. The generalized wearable intelligent device includes full functionality, large size, and may not rely on the smart phone to implement complete or partial functionality, such as: smart watches or smart glasses, etc., and focus on only certain types of application functions, and need to be used in combination with other devices, such as smart phones, for example, various smart bracelets, smart jewelry, etc. for physical sign monitoring.

It should be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device may be a device for implementing a function of the terminal device, or may be a device capable of supporting the terminal device to implement the function, for example, a chip system, and the device may be installed in the terminal. In the embodiment of the application, the chip system may be formed by a chip, and may also include a chip and other discrete devices.

The terminal device in the embodiment of the present application may also be referred to as: a User Equipment (UE), a Mobile Station (MS), a Mobile Terminal (MT), an access terminal, a subscriber unit, a subscriber station, a mobile station, a remote terminal, a mobile device, a user terminal, a wireless communication device, a user agent, or a user equipment, etc.

Since the terminal equipment introduces the multi-camera module, the calling of the multi-camera is mostly defined by logic in the terminal equipment system or is opened to other software developers, and a user cannot use each camera at any time or simultaneously according to own thought, so that the shooting advantage of the multi-camera module of the terminal equipment cannot be exerted.

Currently, when a user shoots using a terminal device with a multi-camera module, the user can shoot with a rear camera of the terminal device or shoot with a front camera of the terminal device, and cannot observe preview images from a plurality of cameras at the same time. The call decision of the camera is automatically decided by the terminal equipment system according to certain characteristics in the environment, and the user has no decision right on which camera is used by the terminal equipment to shoot.

In a daily life scenario, sometimes a user may have a need to shoot simultaneously using a rear camera and a front camera of a terminal device, for example, shoot VLOG video, record interview video with a terminal device, and the like. Currently, some higher-order terminal devices provide special modes of shooting with multiple cameras at the same time, such as a "dual-view effect" or a "picture-in-picture effect", but the user still cannot arbitrarily specify a shooting mode, for example, specify that multiple cameras respectively shoot and store as multiple shooting results, or specify that multiple cameras shoot simultaneously to obtain one shooting result.

Based on the problem that the user cannot arbitrarily designate the shooting mode, the embodiment of the application provides a terminal shooting method, which is suitable for terminal equipment provided with a plurality of cameras. The preview interface also comprises a movable first control, and the terminal equipment can achieve the purpose of freely switching shooting modes by moving the first control, so that shooting advantages of multiple cameras can be brought into play, and the use experience of a user is improved.

The shooting modes of the plurality of cameras in the embodiment of the application include:

mode 1: the plurality of cameras respectively shoot and store as a plurality of shooting results;

mode 2: a plurality of cameras shoot simultaneously to obtain a plurality of shooting results;

mode 3: and a plurality of cameras shoot simultaneously to obtain a shooting result.

The manner in which the multiple cameras are invoked according to embodiments of the present application is described below in conjunction with fig. 2 and 3.

Fig. 2 is an interface schematic diagram for calling multiple cameras according to an embodiment of the present application. After receiving the operation of clicking the camera application by the user, the terminal device may display a preview interface shown as an interface a in fig. 2, where a preview image a collected by the camera a is displayed.

The preview interface comprises a control 01, and when a user clicks the control 01, the terminal device can shoot a target object through a camera A to obtain an image file. For example, when the user presses control 01 for a long time, the terminal device may shoot the target object through the camera a to obtain a video file. The long press operation may be understood as an operation in which a finger of a user presses a certain control for a period of time exceeding a preset period of time.

The preview interface also includes a control 02, and illustratively, when the user clicks on control 02, the terminal device can switch the front/rear camera. For example, when the user presses the control 02 for a long time beyond a preset time period, or drags the control 02 to move and loosen the hand, as shown in the interface B in fig. 2, the terminal device may call the camera B to generate a floating window, and the preview image B collected by the camera B is displayed in the floating window.

Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of another interface for invoking multiple cameras according to an embodiment of the present application. After receiving the operation of clicking the camera application by the user, the terminal device may display a preview interface shown as an interface a in fig. 3, where a preview image a collected by the camera a is displayed.

The preview interface further includes a control 07, and when the user clicks or long presses the control 07, as shown in the interface B in fig. 3, the terminal device may call the camera B, and generate a floating window, where the preview image B collected by the camera B is displayed.

In addition to the two modes of calling up the camera B, after displaying the preview interface of the camera application, the terminal device may prompt the user that a preset position exists at the edge of the screen, and the user may slide from the preset position to the inside of the screen so as to call up the camera B, so as to generate a floating frame window, where the preview image B collected by the camera B is displayed.

As shown in fig. 2 and 3, the control 03 is included in the floating window, and when the user's finger holds the control 03 to drag the floating window, the floating window can move within the background area according to the dragging of the user's finger, but cannot exceed the edge of the background area. Wherein the background area represents an area in which the preview image a is displayed. When the user releases his hands, the layout of the preview image a and the preview image B on the preview interface is different according to the positions of the released fingers of the user.

The user can also click control 03 to open a menu including a button to switch the front/rear camera and a drag handle to change the focal length of the screen. When the user clicks a button of the front/rear camera, the direction of the camera can be switched. When a user drags the drag handle within the range of the preset focal segment, the cameras in the same direction can be switched according to the sequence from small to large of the focal segment.

The layout manner provided by the embodiment of the application includes a stitching layout, a picture-in-picture layout, and a superposition (or fusion) layout.

Fig. 4 is an interface schematic diagram of a trigger stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 4, in response to an operation of dragging the screen floating window by a user's finger, the terminal device controls the screen floating window to move following the dragging of the user's finger, and after the user drags the screen floating window to a hot zone a loose hand, as shown in an interface B in fig. 4, the preview image a and the preview image B form a stitched layout, and the preview image B is above the preview image a.

In fig. 4, control 03 and control 05 are displayed in region B, and the user can click on control 05 to cancel region B, i.e., to stop the operation of camera B, and only the image captured by camera a is displayed in the preview interface.

In region a, controls 04 and 06 are displayed, and the user can press control 04 to change the layout of preview image a and preview image B. The user can click on control 06 to cancel area a, i.e. to stop the operation of camera a, and only the image captured by camera B is displayed in the preview interface.

Fig. 5 is an interface schematic diagram of another trigger stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. Similar to the description with respect to fig. 4, as shown in an interface a in fig. 5, the terminal device controls the screen floating window to move to the hotbox C following the user's finger, and after the user releases the screen floating window in the hotbox C, as shown in an interface B in fig. 5, the preview image a and the preview image B form a stitched layout, and the preview image B is below the preview image a.

FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram of an interface for triggering a canvas office in a picture provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 6, the terminal device controls the floating window to move to the hot zone B1 following the finger of the user, and after the user releases the floating window in the hot zone B1, as shown in an interface B in fig. 6, the preview image a and the preview image B form a picture-in-picture layout in which the preview image B is suspended on the upper layer of the preview image a to be displayed.

Fig. 7 is an interface schematic diagram of a trigger overlay layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 7, the terminal device controls the screen floating window to move to the hot zone B2 following the user's finger, and after the user releases the screen floating window in the hot zone B2, as shown in an interface B in fig. 7, the preview image a and the preview image B form a superimposed layout, and the preview image B is on the lower layer of the preview image a.

Fig. 8 is an interface schematic diagram of another trigger overlay layout provided in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 8, the terminal device controls the screen floating window to move to the hot zone B3 following the user's finger, and after the user releases the screen floating window in the hot zone B3, as shown in an interface B in fig. 8, the preview image a and the preview image B form a superimposed layout, and the preview image B is on top of the preview image a.

It should be noted that the above-mentioned hot zone designs shown in fig. 4 to 8 are only examples, and other hot zone design methods are also possible according to factors such as the size of the screen of the terminal device, the number of call cameras, and the like, which are not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

It should be noted that, the above-mentioned hot zone is invisible to the user, when the user loosens the hands on the floating window of the screen, the terminal device detects the event of loosening the hands of the user, and determines the hot zone position of the finger when loosening the hands, thereby determining the layout mode of the preview image a and the preview image B.

Fig. 9 is an interface schematic diagram of a layout changing manner according to an embodiment of the present application. If the user desires to change the layout of preview image a and preview image B, for example, as shown in the interface a in fig. 9, in the stitched layout, the user may press a finger against control 04 on preview image a to drag preview image a. At the moment when the user drags the preview image a, as shown in the B interface in fig. 9, the terminal device displays the preview image a in the form of a screen floating window and controls the screen floating window to move following the drag of the user's finger. At the instant the user drags the preview image a, the terminal device displays the preview image B (not shown in the figure) full screen.

After the user releases the floating window in the hot zone B1, as shown in the interface C in fig. 9, the preview image a and the preview image B form a picture-in-picture layout, and the preview image a is suspended on the upper display of the preview image B.

Fig. 10 is an interface schematic diagram for changing the position of a floating window according to an embodiment of the present application. For the canvas office in a picture, the user may change the position of the floating window of the picture in the background area. Illustratively, the picture-in-picture layout of preview image a and preview image B is shown as interface a in fig. 10, and the user may drag the other areas of the floating window except for control 03 to move the floating window. As shown in the B interface in fig. 10, the user drags the other area except for the control 03 in the screen floating window to change the position of the screen floating window in the background area.

In the above-mentioned various layout modes, the preview image a and the preview image B may be preview images collected from the same camera or preview images collected from two different cameras. In addition to displaying preview images from the native camera acquisition, the terminal device may also display images from cameras of other devices.

In the embodiment of the present application, the region in the preview interface where the image acquired by the camera a is displayed may be referred to as a region a, and the region in the preview interface where the image acquired by the camera B is displayed may be referred to as a region B. In fig. 8, preview image a is displayed in area a, and preview image B is displayed in area B.

It should be appreciated that the preview interface of the camera displays the preview image a captured by the camera a immediately after the user opens the camera application. When the user triggers the function of calling the multiple cameras, the terminal equipment calls the camera B in the multiple cameras, and at the moment, the camera A and the camera B are not the same camera.

Alternatively, the terminal device may determine the camera B according to weights of different cameras. The terminal device may determine the camera with high weight as the camera B.

In one possible implementation manner, the method for judging the weight may include: the terminal equipment records cameras which are called when a user presses the shutter each time, after long-term use, for example, after 1000 times of shutter use are accumulated and recorded, the shooting times of different cameras are counted, different weights are configured for the different cameras according to the shooting times, and the weight of the cameras with more shooting times is higher.

In another possible implementation manner, the method for determining the weight may include: the terminal equipment configures different weights for different cameras according to the time and position information of the camera when the user uses the camera. For example, when a user is in a scenic spot or an outdoor location, the terminal device configures a higher weight for the tele camera; when the user is in an indoor place, the terminal equipment configures higher weight for the wide-angle camera.

After the camera a and the camera B are called out, a preview image a collected by the camera a and a preview image B collected by the camera B are displayed in the preview interface. For example, the camera a and the camera B are cameras in the same direction (for example, are both in the rear direction), the user clicks the control 03 on the preview image B, opens the menu bar, changes the zoom segment by dragging the drag handle to switch the plurality of cameras in the same direction, and when the drag handle is dragged to a certain focal segment, the focal segment is the focal segment of the camera a, so that the terminal device deactivates the camera B, and also displays the preview image collected by the camera a in the region B, that is, the preview image a displayed by the region a and the preview image B displayed by the region B are preview images collected from the same camera.

Similarly, the user can also perform pinch gesture to change the zoom in the area B, and the terminal device can automatically switch the appropriate camera according to the size of the angle of view.

The layout of the two preview images described above in connection with fig. 4 to 10 may be applicable to small screen terminals, and more than two preview images may also be present for large screen terminals.

Fig. 11 to 15 are interface diagrams of layout modes of a large-screen terminal according to an embodiment of the present application.

Fig. 11 and 12 show the layout of three preview images, in which the layout of preview image a, preview image B, and preview image C is a stitched layout.

Fig. 13 shows the layout of four preview images, in which the layout of preview image a, preview image B, preview image C, and preview image D is a stitched layout.

For large screen terminals, multiple preview images may also form a canvas-in-picture and overlay layout. Fig. 14 shows a layout of three preview images, in which the layout of preview image a and preview image B is a stitched layout, and preview image C is suspended above preview image B to form a picture-in-picture layout with preview image B. Of course, the preview image C may also be suspended above the preview image a or above the preview image a and the preview image B (i.e., suspended at the junction of the area a and the area B), which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

Fig. 15 shows a layout of three preview images, in which the layout of preview image a and preview image B is a superimposed layout, and preview image C is suspended above the superimposed images of preview image a and preview image B to form a picture-in-picture layout.

The superimposed layout of two or more preview images is similar to the B interface in fig. 8 and is not described here too.

For a slightly smaller screen terminal where the display space is sufficient, the layout of a plurality of preview images as shown in fig. 11 to 15 may also be adopted.

When a user calls out a plurality of cameras to shoot, the terminal equipment collects images of the target object through the cameras, a plurality of preview images are displayed on a preview interface of the camera application, and the plurality of preview images can have a layout mode as shown in fig. 4 to 15. In response to a photographing operation by a user, the terminal device may render images collected by a plurality of cameras as a whole, and save the images as one image file or one video file (mode 3 described above). The terminal device may also store the images acquired by the plurality of cameras as a plurality of image files or a plurality of video files, respectively (mode 1 described above). The terminal device may also save the images acquired by the plurality of cameras as a plurality of image files or video files simultaneously (mode 2 described above). Whether stored as one file or two files may be at the discretion of the user. For mode 1, the terminal device can align the time codes of two video files when respectively storing, so as to meet the requirements of multi-machine preview and editing.

The following first describes a man-machine interaction operation of a user-specified shooting mode under a stitching layout with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 16 is an interface schematic diagram of a layout of shutter keys under a tiled arrangement according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 16, a preview image a captured by the camera a and a preview image B captured by the camera application B are displayed in the preview interface of the camera application. The camera a and the camera B may be the same camera or two different cameras.

It can be seen that, in the preview interface, control 01 and control 08 are included, control 01 is an existing shutter key of the preview interface of the camera application, and control 08 is a new shutter key and can move within the screen range. Under the layout of the control 08 as shown in fig. 16, the user can customize the shooting mode of the multiple cameras by changing the area in which the control 08 is located.

The scheme of adding the control 08 to the preview interface to realize the custom shooting mode may be referred to as scheme one hereinafter.

Fig. 17 is an interface schematic diagram of a time-sharing captured image under a stitched layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 17, the layout manner of the preview image a and the preview image B is a stitching layout, the control 08 is displayed in the area a, and the user may click on the control 08 to shoot an image in the area a, that is, the preview image a collected by the camera a is encoded as an image file and recorded as a first image file. If the user desires to capture an image captured by camera B, the user may drag control 08 into region B. As shown in the interface B in fig. 17, in response to a drag operation of the user on the control 08, the terminal device controls the control 08 to move along with the drag of the finger of the user, after the user drags the control 08 to the region B to loosen the hand, the terminal device displays the control 08 at the position where the user loosens the hand, and the user can click the control 08 to shoot an image in the region B, namely, the preview image B acquired by the camera B is encoded into an image file and recorded as a second image file.

The shooting mode described with respect to fig. 17 is mode 1: and respectively shooting through the two cameras and storing the two shooting results, wherein the first image file and the second image file are the two shooting results obtained in a time-sharing way.

The manner in which mode 2 is implemented in a stitched layout is described below in connection with fig. 18.

Fig. 18 is an interface schematic diagram of two paths of images captured simultaneously under a stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 18, the preview image a and the preview image B are laid out in a mosaic layout, and the control 08 is displayed in the area a. If the user desires to capture the image captured by the camera a and the image captured by the camera B at the same time, as shown in the interface B in fig. 18, the user may drag the control 08 to the intersection of the area a and the area B and then loosen his hand. When detecting that the user drags the control 08 to the junction of the area a and the area B, the terminal device can adsorb the control 08 to the junction of the area a and the area B for display. And in response to the operation of clicking the control 08 at the juncture by the user, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera A and the camera B simultaneously to obtain two image files, and the two image files are recorded as a third image file and a fourth image file.

For example, when the user drags the control 08 near the intersection of the area a and the area B, the intersection may present an adsorption animation effect to prompt the user to move the control 08 to the intersection.

Illustratively, when the user drags control 08 to the intersection of region A and region B, the intersection may be highlighted to alert the user that control 08 is currently at the intersection of region A and region B.

Similarly, when the user moves control 08 to region a, region a may be highlighted to prompt the user that control 08 is currently in region a; when the user moves control 08 to region B, region B may be highlighted to prompt the user that control 08 is currently in region B.

The shooting mode described with respect to fig. 18 is mode 2: and shooting by two cameras simultaneously to obtain two shooting results, wherein the third image file and the fourth image file are the two shooting results obtained simultaneously.

The manner in which mode 3 is implemented under the splice layout is described below in connection with fig. 19.

Fig. 19 is an interface schematic diagram of capturing one image at the same time under a stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 19, the preview image a and the preview image B are laid out in a stitched layout. If the user desires to render the image acquired by the camera A and the image acquired by the camera B into one path of image for storage, the user can click the control 01. And in response to the operation of clicking the control 01 by the user, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera A and the camera B simultaneously to obtain an image file, and the image file is recorded as a fifth image file.

The shooting mode described with respect to fig. 19 is mode 3: and shooting through the two cameras simultaneously to obtain a shooting result, wherein the fifth image file is the shooting result obtained simultaneously.

The man-machine interaction operation for obtaining the image file in the three photographing modes is described above with reference to fig. 17 to 19, respectively. Human-computer interaction operations for obtaining video files in three photographing modes are described below with reference to fig. 20 to 22, respectively.

Fig. 37 is an interface schematic diagram of a time-sharing captured image under still another stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. The control 01 in fig. 37 can move within an area enclosed by a dashed box (invisible to the user), and the embodiment of the present application refers to the area enclosed by the dashed box as a movable area. When detecting an operation of dragging the control 01 by the user, the terminal device may display a cursor 12 on the screen, and the position of the cursor 12 on the screen changes following the change of the control 01. In this way, the area surrounded by the dashed box can be understood as a virtual touch pad, and the position of the control 01 on the touch pad has a mapping relationship with the position of the cursor 12 on the whole screen, so that the user can change the position of the cursor on the screen by moving the control 01.

As shown in an interface a in fig. 37, a hot zone D, a hot zone E, and a hot zone F are corresponding within the movable region of the control 01. When a user drags a control 01 to a hot zone D, the terminal equipment detects that the finger position of the user is in the hot zone D, and a cursor 12 is correspondingly displayed in the zone A; when a user drags the control 01 to the hot zone F, the terminal equipment detects that the finger position of the user is in the hot zone F, and a cursor 12 is correspondingly displayed in the zone B; when the user drags the control 01 to the hot zone E, the terminal device detects that the finger position of the user is in the hot zone E, and correspondingly displays the cursor 12 at the juncture of the area a and the area B.

It should be understood that the hotspot D, the hotspot E and the hotspot F are not visible to the user, and the terminal device detects the hotspot where the finger of the user is located, so that the shooting mode is determined according to the hotspot where the finger is located when the user releases his hand.

As shown in the interface a of fig. 37, if the user desires to capture an image captured by camera a, the user may move control 01 such that cursor 12 is in region a. When the cursor 12 is in the area a, the user can achieve shooting by releasing the control 01. When detecting that a user loosens the control 01 in the hot zone D, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera A to obtain an image file.

After the user releases his hand, as shown in the B interface in fig. 37, the control 01 returns to the initial position, and the cursor 12 disappears on the screen.

Fig. 38 is an interface schematic diagram of a time-sharing captured image under still another stitched layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the interface a of fig. 38, if the user desires to capture an image captured by camera B, the user may move control 01 such that cursor 12 is in region B. When the cursor 12 is in the area B, the user can realize shooting by releasing the control 01. When detecting that a user loosens the control 01 in the hot zone F, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera B to obtain an image file.

After the user releases his hand, as shown in the B interface in fig. 38, the control 01 returns to the initial position, and the cursor 12 disappears on the screen.

Fig. 39 is an interface schematic diagram of two images captured simultaneously under still another stitching layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in an interface a in fig. 39, if the user desires to capture the image captured by the camera a and the image captured by the camera B at the same time, the control 01 may be moved to cause the cursor to be displayed at the intersection of the area a and the area B. When the cursor 12 is at the intersection of the area a and the area B, the user can release the control 01 to achieve shooting. When detecting that a user loosens the control 01 in the hot zone E, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera A and the camera B simultaneously to obtain two image files. As shown in the B interface in fig. 39, after the user releases control 01 to trigger the photographing function of the terminal device, the terminal device controls control 01 to return to the initial position.

If the user expects to shoot through the camera A and the camera B at the same time, a path of image is obtained, and the user can click the control 01 at the initial position of the control 01. In response to the operation of clicking the control 01 at the initial position of the control 01 by a user, the terminal equipment shoots through the camera A and the camera B simultaneously to obtain an image file, wherein the image file is an image file obtained by combining an image acquired by the camera A and an image acquired by the camera B.

For the canvas office in a picture, the user can also customize the shooting mode through control 01.

FIG. 40 is a schematic diagram of an interface for capturing images under another canvas office time division in a picture provided in an embodiment of the present application. Specific man-machine interaction operations may refer to descriptions of fig. 37 and 38, and are not described herein.

FIG. 41 is a schematic diagram of an interface for capturing two images simultaneously under another canvas office in a picture provided in an embodiment of the present application. Specific man-machine interaction operations may be referred to as description of fig. 39, and will not be described herein.

Fig. 42 is an interface schematic diagram of two images captured simultaneously under another superimposed layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 42, the layout of the preview image a and the preview image B is a superimposed layout. The preview interface comprises a control 01, and the control 01 can move within a preset range. As shown in an interface a in fig. 42, if a user desires to capture two paths of images at the same time, the user may drag the control 01 to slide upward from an initial position of the control 01, and in response to an operation of dragging the control 01 by the user, the terminal device controls the control 01 to move upward. When the user is detected to loosen the control 01, triggering the photographing function of the terminal equipment, and simultaneously photographing by the terminal equipment through the camera A and the camera B to obtain two image files. As shown in the B interface in fig. 42, after the user releases his hand to trigger the photographing function of the terminal device, the terminal device may control the control 01 to return to the initial position.

In the layout of the shutter keys as described in fig. 37, the manner of capturing a video is similar to that described above in the layout of the other shutter keys.

Fig. 43 is an interface schematic diagram of a time-sharing video capturing under still another splicing layout according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the interface a of fig. 43, if the user desires to record the video of the image captured by the camera B, the user may move the control 01 to cause the cursor 12 to be displayed in the area B. When the cursor 12 is displayed in the area B, the user may stop moving the control 01, press 01 until the duration of pressing the control 01 exceeds the preset duration, and trigger the video recording function of the terminal device. And responding to the operation that the duration of pressing the control 01 by the user exceeds the preset duration, and recording the video by the terminal equipment through the camera B.

After triggering the video recording function of the terminal device, as shown in the interface B in fig. 43, the terminal device controls the control 01 to return to the initial position, and displays the control 09 in the area B, where the control 09 is used to stop video recording. In response to the user clicking the control 09, the terminal device stops video recording and encodes the video shot by the camera B into a video file.

Similarly, if the user desires to record the video of the image acquired by the camera a, the user may stop moving the control 01 after moving the control 01 to make the cursor 12 displayed in the area a, and press the control 01 until the duration of pressing the control 01 exceeds the preset duration, and trigger the video recording function of the terminal device. And the terminal equipment starts video recording through the camera A, and encodes the video shot by the camera A into a video file after stopping video recording.

Similarly, if the user desires to record the images acquired by the camera a and the camera B at the same time to obtain two paths of videos, the user can stop moving the control 01 after moving the control 01 to enable the cursor 12 to be displayed at the juncture of the area a and the area B, press the control 01 until the duration of pressing the control 01 exceeds the preset duration, and trigger the video recording function of the terminal device. And the terminal equipment starts video recording through the camera A and the camera B, and encodes the video shot by the camera A into one video file and encodes the video shot by the camera B into the other video file after stopping video recording, so as to obtain two video files.

If the user expects to record the images acquired by the camera A and the camera B at the same time to obtain two paths of videos, the user can press the control 01 at the initial position until the duration of pressing the control 01 exceeds the preset duration, and the video recording function of the terminal equipment is triggered. And the terminal equipment starts video recording through the camera A and the camera B, and encodes the video shot by the camera A and the video shot by the video B into a video file after stopping video recording.

It should be understood that, in the layout manner of the shutter key as shown in fig. 37, if the layout manner of the preview image a and the preview image B is the canvas office in picture, the manner of recording video is similar to that of the splicing layout, and will not be repeated here.

In the second and third aspects described above, it is common that, once the user moves the shutter key (control 10 or control 01), the photographing function or video recording function of the terminal device is started immediately after stopping the movement operation and releasing the hands. But there is a possibility that a malfunction occurs during the movement of the control 10 or the control 01 by the user or that the shooting is attempted to be canceled as a result of the remorse during the operation.

For the second scheme, if the terminal device detects that the user moves the control 10 from the initial position of the control 10 on the virtual track 11, and then moves the control 10 to the initial position of the control 10 again (i.e. the junction of the multiple areas where multiple preview images are displayed correspondingly), the terminal device determines to cancel shooting.

Aiming at the scheme III, if the terminal equipment detects that the user moves the control 01 from the initial position of the control 01 and then moves the control 01 to the initial position of the control 01 again, the terminal equipment determines to cancel shooting.

Since the movement control 08 is separated from the shooting operation in the first embodiment, no user misoperation or remorse is involved.

It should be understood that the sequence numbers of the above processes do not mean the order of execution, and the execution order of the processes should be determined by the functions and internal logic of the processes, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.
