Method for presentation of images
View Patent ↗The invention concerns a method for displaying an image on a display of an electronic device, wherein the image is one selected image of a burst of images. The method comprises the steps of capturing a burst of images, comprising at least three images, defining a main image by selecting one image of the captured burst of images, defining the at least one images obtained before the selected main image as pre-images, displaying the defined pre-images and the selected main image in sequence on the display.
1. A method for displaying an image in an image album application on a display of an electronic device, wherein the image is one selected image of a burst of images, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
a. capturing, using an image capture device, a burst of images, comprising at least three images;
b. selecting, by the electronic device, one image of the captured burst of images as a main image;
c. defining at least one image obtained before said main image as pre-images;
d. defining any image obtained after said main image as a pro-image;
e. individually displaying, responsive to detecting user navigation between full screen images to said main image in the album application, the defined pre-images and the selected main image in sequence on the display, wherein the pre-images are played back as a frame-by-frame animation until stopping at the main image, the main image being the last image to be displayed; and
f. displaying, responsive to detecting user navigation between full screen images from said main image to a subsequent image in the album application, defined pro-images in sequence on the display, wherein the pro-images are played back as a frame-by-frame animation before switching to displaying said subsequent image.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the defined pre-images comprises more than one image and wherein the method further comprises the steps of:
a. generating a visual effect of the more than one pre-images; and
b. displaying the at least more than one pre-images with said generated visual effect before displaying the defined main image.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the pro-images comprises more than one image and wherein the method further comprises the steps of:
a. generating a visual effect of the more than one pro-image; and
b. displaying the at least more than one pro-image with said generated visual effect after displaying the main image.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the visual effect comprises the steps of:
a. creating a zoom in effect by displaying the at least more than one pre-image directly after each other's, image by image, until stopping at the main image.
5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein a rate of displaying the at least more than one pre-images is pre-defined.
6. The method according to claim 3 , wherein the visual effect comprises the steps of:
a. creating a zoom out effect by displaying the at least more than one pro-images directly after each other's, image by image, starting with the first of the at least one pro-images.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein a rate of displaying the at least more than one pro-image is pre-defined.
8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said method further comprises the steps of:
a. adding a light effect or a sound effect when displaying the main image.
9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said burst of images is captured by using burst shot mode.
10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said burst of images is captured by using time shift mode.
11. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said method further comprises the steps of:
a. storing said pre-images obtained before said main image with low resolution; and
b. storing said main image with high resolution.
12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein said method further comprises the steps of:
a. storing said pro-images obtained after said main image with low resolution.
