Abstract

An electronic device is provided the disclosure. The electronic device includes: a body; an image capture device, rotatably disposed on the body to capture an image of an object; a display, configured at a first side of the body and including a display zone, the display zone is configured to display the image of the object; a motor set, electronically connected with the image capture device; and a processor, electronically connected with the image capture device, the display, and the motor set and configured to control the motor set, wherein the display zone includes a center part, when at least part of the object displayed at the display zone is not in the center part, the processor controls the motor set to drive the image capture device to track the object.

Claims (18)

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a body;

an image capture device, rotatably disposed on the body to capture an image of an object;

a display, configured at a first side of the body and including a display zone, the display zone is configured to display the image of the object;

a motor set, electronically connected with the image capture device; and

a processor, electronically connected with the image capture device, the display, and the motor set and configured to control the motor set,

wherein the display zone includes a center part, when at least part of the object displayed at the display zone is not in the center part, the processor controls the motor set to drive the image capture device to track the object,

wherein the processor selects a size of the center part according to a proportion of a size of the object displayed at the display zone to a size of the display zone.

2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the size of the center part is a first size or a second size, and the second size is larger than the first size.

3. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the first size of the center part is a first proportion of a size of the display zone, the second size of the center part is a second proportion of a size of the display zone, and the second proportion is larger than the first proportion.

4. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the processor compares a product generated by multiplying the size of the object displayed on the display zone by a multiplying factor with at least one of the first size or the second size to determine the first size or the second size is to be selected as the size of the center part.

5. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein when the product of the object is smaller or equal to the first size, the processor selects the first size as the center part.

6. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein when the product of the object is larger than the first size and smaller or equal to the second size, the processor selects the second size as the size of the center part.

7. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein when the product of the object is larger than the second size, the processor selects the second size as the size of the center part.

8. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the object displayed in the display zone includes an object center position, the center part of the display zone includes a block center position, when at least part of the object displayed on the display zone is not in the center part, the processor controls the motor set to drive the image capture device to rotate to make a distance between the object center position and the block center position smaller or equal to a multiple size of the object.

9. The electronic device according to claim 8 , wherein the multiple size of the object is 0.1 of the size of the object displayed on the display zone.

10. The electronic device according to claim 4 , wherein the multiplying factor is five.

11. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein the first size is 0.5 of the size of the display zone, and the second size is 0.6 of the size of the display zone.
