FIG. 7 shows the corrected images generated by the video display device.

First, referring to FIG. 3A, an image display device may load an original image 102 stored in a storage means for image processing. In addition, the image display device may display the original image 102 on the screen through the display means.

3B, the image display device may recognize at least one subject 104a to 104c in the original image 102 through the image processing apparatus 100. For example, the subject may be an animal 104a, a human 104b, an object 104c, or the like.

3C, the image display device may obtain a composition pattern 106 corresponding to each of the at least one subject 104a to 104c from the original image 102 through the image processing apparatus 100. The composition pattern of the original image may include composition of an image corresponding to a type including each of the at least one subject 104a to 104c.

Subsequently, referring to FIG. 3D, the image display device may process the original image such that a corrected image corresponding to the composition pattern 106 is generated through the image processing apparatus 100. The image processing apparatus 100 may crop (cut out) the corrected images 108a to 108c corresponding to each type included in the original image in consideration of the composition pattern in the original image. Here, the corrected image 108a is a corrected image corresponding to the composition of the image corresponding to the person type. In addition, the corrected image 108b is a corrected image corresponding to the composition of the image corresponding to the background type.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a video display process of a video display device according to a first embodiment disclosed herein.

According to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, as a user captures an image of the largest screen by using a photographing means of an image display device, and shows a scene of a corrected image that can be selected according to a composition pattern in the corresponding image after image capturing The present invention relates to an interface for selecting and storing a favorite image.

When an image (original image) photographed through the photographing means is input to the image display device (S202), the image display device may recognize at least one subject from the input original image (S204).

When at least one subject is recognized, the image display device determines whether the original image is horizontal based on the recognized position of the at least one subject (S206). In operation 208, when the original image is not horizontal, horizontal correction is performed (S210), and the same process may be repeated until the original image is horizontal.

The image display device analyzes the type of the image from the original image and sets the number of types to i (S212). For example, if one person and one object exist in the original image, i is set to 3 since the type of the original image includes a person, a background, and a person and a background.

When i is greater than 0 (S214), the image display device analyzes a composition pattern for an image of the i-th type and the person type in the above example (S216). For example, the image display device obtains an optimal composition corresponding to each type from the composition pattern library stored in the storage means. Then, i is decreased by 1 (S218). Repeat this process until i is not greater than zero. In the above example, the analysis process (S216) of the composition pattern for the person, the background, and the person and the background is repeated three times.

When the analysis process of the composition pattern is completed, the image display device derives an effective pattern (S220). The effective pattern may be an optimal composition corresponding to each type in the composition pattern library stored in the storage means. Alternatively, the effective pattern may be a pattern that combines an optimal composition corresponding to each type in the composition pattern library stored in the storage means.

The image display device applies the effective pattern derived in step 220 to the original image (S222). As a result, a corrected image is generated from the original image. In particular, when there are a plurality of generated corrected images, a plurality of corrected images are displayed to provide an interface for the user to select (S224). In addition, the image display device may output an image selected by the user (S226) and store it in the storage means.

6A and 6B are conceptual views illustrating a video display process of the video display device according to the first embodiment disclosed herein.

Referring to FIG. 6A, when a user executes an image capturing function of an image display device, a preview screen 302 of a captured image is provided. The preview screen 302 of the captured image may include an image capture menu 304.

When the user selects the image capturing menu 304 on the preview screen 320, the image display device may generate a plurality of corrected images by performing steps 202 to 222 described with reference to FIG. 5.

When a plurality of correction images are generated, the image display device displays a correction image selection screen 306 including the plurality of correction images 308a to 308c. When any one of the displayed corrected images 308a to 308c is selected, the image display device may display the selected corrected image on the screen and store it in the storage means.

According to the first embodiment disclosed in the present specification as described above, the user can not only quickly take an image without worrying about the composition, but also obtain a corrected image of a good composition with one original image without knowledge of the composition. There is an advantage to this.

7 is a flowchart illustrating an image display process of an image display device according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure.

In the second exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, when a user selects a menu provided by an image capturing function, the image display device displays a selectable mode (composition) by finding an appropriate composition in a scene currently being captured. In addition, when the user selects a desired shooting mode (composition), the image display device changes the image capturing function to a setting of the corresponding mode, and provides a guide in the background to capture an image of the corresponding composition in the desired mode. Then, the image display device captures an image by matching the already changed setting with a guide of the background, and outputs an image captured with an appropriate composition.

The image capturing function is executed in the image display device, and a captured image correction input is received (S302). For example, when a shooting menu of a video display device is provided in a touch interface, a short touch of a shooting menu captures an image, but a long touch of a captured image correction command (or a shooting mode display command) before a picture is taken. Is applied.

When the captured image correction command is applied, the image display device performs the corrected image generation process described with reference to steps 204 to 222 of FIG. 5, and displays thumbnails of the plurality of generated corrected images together with the corresponding photographing modes. In operation S302, an input for selecting one of the displayed photographing modes is received.

The photographing mode may include, for example, a landscape mode, a portrait mode, and a balance mode (person and background mode) according to the position of the subject. Alternatively, the shooting mode may include a gentle mode, a truth mode, and a peace mode according to the feeling of composition.

In addition, each shooting mode is displayed near the shooting menu, allowing the user to select a shooting mode while maintaining a touch input on the display. In this case, the video display device generates a thumbnail of the corrected image corresponding to each shooting mode from the original image, and displays a thumbnail of the corrected video corresponding to the shooting mode together with each shooting mode, thereby selecting a user. To facilitate.

If the user drags to the desired shooting mode without releasing the touch input, the setting is changed to the dragged shooting mode. For example, the settings of the exposure, focus, and zoom are changed to correspond to the shooting mode. When the user releases the touch input in the corresponding shooting mode, the shooting mode is selected. In exceptional cases, when the user does not have a desired shooting mode, by releasing a touch input from the shooting menu, the current scene may be captured in a general manner. At this time, the image display device may automatically execute the post-correction function of the captured image.

When the shooting mode is selected by the user, the image display device displays a guide for capturing a corrected image corresponding to the selected shooting mode (S306). In this case, the setting of whether to take an image horizontally or vertically may be automatically changed.

The image display device determines whether the composition of the captured image is changed according to a guide for capturing the corrected image (S308), and determines whether the composition of the captured image matches the composition of the corrected image (S310). The image display device repeats steps 308 and 310 until the composition of the captured image matches the composition of the corrected image. In this case, since the exposure, focus, and zoom are already set, when the user moves the image display device only slightly, the composition of the captured image and the composition of the corrected image may coincide.

When the composition of the captured image and the composition of the corrected image coincide with each other, the image display device may output an indicator for notifying the result of the composition (S312). For example, the image display device may generate a beep sound or display a message indicating that the composition is consistent.

The video display device receives an image capturing input in operation S314. For example, the user may apply a short touch to the shooting menu. Accordingly, the image display device captures an image through the photographing means (S316) and stores the captured image. Here, the captured image may be the same image as the composition of the correction image. In this case, it is also possible to obtain an image having a desired composition with higher image quality.

According to the second embodiment disclosed in the present specification described above, the user can not only find an appropriate composition without knowledge of the composition, but also need not set the exposure, focus, zoom, etc. by the user directly, You can get a video of. In particular, by providing the shooting assistance function, the effort and effort of the user required to obtain a high quality image can be minimized.

8 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an image display process of an image display device according to a second embodiment of the present disclosure.

When the image capturing function is executed, the image display device displays an image capturing screen 402. When the user long touches the shooting menu 404 on the image capturing screen, the capturing modes 406a to 406c and the thumbnails 408a to 408c of the corrected image corresponding to each capturing mode are displayed. Here, the corrected image is generated through steps 204 to 222 of FIG. 5.

When the user moves the touch input to one of the shooting modes 406a to 406c in the shooting menu 404 while releasing the touch with the display and releases the image, the image display device provides a guide corresponding to the released shooting mode. The image may be displayed on the screen 402. Through this guide, the user can obtain a high quality shot image corresponding to the corrected image.

9A to 9D are conceptual views illustrating a video display process of a video display device according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure.

According to the third exemplary embodiment disclosed herein, when one image is stored in a digital picture frame, a plurality of images having an appropriate composition are extracted from the stored one image, and the extracted plurality of images are used during reproduction of the slideshow.

Referring to FIG. 9A, the image display device may display, on the screen 502, one image selected by the user from among a plurality of images stored in the storage means. In this case, when the user touches a part of the screen 502, various menus related to the image displayed on the screen 502 may be displayed. For example, the image display device may display the slideshow menu 504 on the screen 502.

When the slideshow menu 504 is selected, the video display device uses the image displayed on the screen 502 as an original image to generate a plurality of corrected images through steps 204 to 222 of FIG. 5. The video display device reproduces the slideshow using the generated corrected images.

When the slide show starts, the corrected image of FIG. 9B among the plurality of corrected images is displayed on the screen 506. Here, the corrected image displayed on the screen 506 of FIG. 9B may be an image corrected according to the composition pattern corresponding to the person type of the image displayed on the screen 502 of FIG. 9A.

Subsequently, when a preset time elapses, the corrected image of FIG. 9C is displayed on the screen 508 of the plurality of corrected images. Here, the corrected image displayed on the screen 506 of FIG. 9B may be an image corrected according to the composition pattern corresponding to the background type of the image displayed on the screen 502 of FIG. 9A.

Subsequently, when a preset time elapses, the corrected image of FIG. 9D is displayed on the screen 508 of the plurality of corrected images. Here, the corrected image displayed on the screen 508 of FIG. 9D represents an image corrected according to a composition pattern corresponding to a person and a background type of the image displayed on the screen 502 of FIG. 9A.

According to the third embodiment of the present disclosure, more images may be slid than images stored in a digital picture frame so that the user may not easily get tired.
