1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a camera configured to capture image data;
a display;
a motion sensor configured to detect motion of the electronic device; and
circuitry configured tocontrol the display to display a content corresponding to an application of the electronic device in response to an output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a static state;
control the camera to be activated and control the display to display the content in a first area of the display and the captured image data in a second area of the display in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a walking state; and
control the camera to be activated and control the display to display the captured image data without display of the content in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a running state.

Abstract
Embodiments include systems of and methods for an electronic device having a camera configured to capture image data, a display configured to display the captured image data and content corresponding to an application of the electronic device, and a motion sensor configured to detect motion of the electronic device. The electronic device also includes circuitry configured to activate the camera when motion is detected by the motion sensor, and control the display to display at least a portion of the captured image data at a size proportional to an amount of motion as detected by an output of the motion sensor.

13. A method of using an electronic device including a camera, a display, a motion sensor, and circuitry, the method comprising:
-
capturing image data with the camera; detecting, using the motion sensor, motion of the electronic device; controlling, using the circuitry, the display to display a content corresponding to an application of the electronic device in response to an output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a static state; controlling, using the circuitry, the camera to be activated and the display to display the content in a first area of the display and the captured image data in a second area of the display in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a walking state; and controlling, using the circuitry, the camera to be activated and the display to display the captured image data without display of the content in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a running state.

14. A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed on an electronic device including a camera, a display, a motion sensor, and circuitry, control the electronic device to carry out a method comprising:
-
capturing image data with the camera; detecting, using the motion sensor, motion of the electronic device; controlling, using the circuitry, the display to display a content corresponding to an application of the electronic device in response to an output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a static state; controlling, using the circuitry, the camera to be activated and the display to display the content in a first area of the display and the captured image data in a second area of the display in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a walking state; and controlling, using the circuitry, the camera to be activated and the display to display the captured image data without display of the content in response to the output of the motion sensor indicating that the electronic device is in a running state.
