Apparatus and method for capturing image with audio data
A method for capturing an image with audio data includes recording and storing audio data, capturing an image on request, and matching and storing the recorded audio data with the captured image, thereby allowing a user to more lively record an audio signal when an image is captured. An apparatus for capturing an image with audio data includes a camera unit configured to capture an image, an audio data recording unit configured to record audio data, and a controller configured to store an image captured by the camera unit, and match and store audio data recorded by the audio data recording unit for a predetermined period of time after the camera unit captured the image.
1. An apparatus for capturing an image with audio data, the apparatus comprising:
a camera unit configured to capture an image;
an audio data recording unit configured to record audio data; and
a controller configured to:
store, in a memory, the captured image associated with corresponding recorded audio data; and
display, on a screen, an indicator in a preview image of the captured image to indicate that the captured image has the corresponding recorded audio data.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to extract the corresponding recorded audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time prior to the image being captured, from the recorded audio data, and store the extracted corresponding recorded audio data and the captured image in the memory.
3. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to extract the corresponding recorded audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time after the image is captured, from the recorded audio, and store the extracted corresponding recorded audio data and the captured image in the memory.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the controller is configured to reproduce the corresponding recorded audio data through a speaker while displaying the captured image on the screen.
5. An apparatus for capturing an image with audio data, the apparatus comprising:
a camera unit configured to capture an image;
an audio data recording unit configured to record audio data; and
a controller configured to:
store, in a memory, the captured image associated with corresponding audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time after the camera unit captured the image;
display, on a screen, an indicator in a preview image of the captured image to indicate that the captured image has the corresponding audio data.
6. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the controller is configured to display a timer to count down the predetermined period of time on the screen while recording the corresponding audio data.
7. The apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the controller is configured to reproduce the corresponding audio data through a speaker while displaying the captured image on the screen.
8. A method for capturing an image with audio data, the method comprising:
recording audio data from an audio recording unit;
capturing an image in response to receiving a user's request;
storing, in a memory, the captured image associated with corresponding audio data; and
displaying, on a screen, an indicator in a preview image of the captured image to indicate that the captured image has the corresponding audio data.
9. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
extracting the corresponding audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time prior to the image being captured, from the recorded audio; and
storing the extracted corresponding audio data and the captured image in the memory.
10. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
extracting audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time after the image is captured, and
storing the extracted audio data and the captured image in the memory.
11. The method of claim 8 , further comprising:
reproducing the corresponding audio data through a speaker while displaying the captured image on the screen.
12. A method for capturing an image with audio data, the method comprising:
capturing an image from a camera;
recording corresponding audio data for a predetermined period of time after the image is captured, from a microphone; and
storing, in a memory, the captured image associated with the corresponding audio data; and
displaying, on a screen, an indicator in a preview image of the captured image to indicate that the captured image has the corresponding audio data.
13. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
displaying a timer to count down the predetermined period of time on the screen.
14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the timer appears while recording the corresponding audio data.
15. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
reproducing the corresponding audio data through a speaker while displaying the captured image on the screen.
16. The method of claim 12 , further comprising:
recording audio from a microphone; and
extracting the corresponding audio data recorded for a predetermined period of time prior to the image being captured, from the recorded audio.
