Identifying object representations in image data
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- capturing image data using an image sensor of a first device;
determining, by the first device, whether the image data comprises a representation of a first type of object;
in response to determining that the image data does not comprise a representation of the first type of object;
determining that the image data comprises a characteristic of a different type of object based, at least in part, on a focus distance associated with the image data; and
in response to determining that the image data comprises the characteristic of the different type of object, indicating, to a user, that the image data comprises a characteristic of the different type of object.

Abstract
A method, a device, and a computer program product for identifying objects in image data. The device is enabled to, in response to determining that an object type of a first set of object types is represented in the image data, indicate that the object type is represented in captured image data. The device is further enabled to, in response to determining that no object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data, determine whether the image data comprises an object characteristic of a specific one of a second set of object types. The device is further enabled to, in response to determining that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types, indicate that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types.

9. A device comprising:
-
an image sensor; and one or more processors that execute program code, wherein execution of the program code enables the device to; capture image data using the image sensor; for each of a first set of object types; determine whether a selected object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data; and in response to a determination that the selected object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data, indicate that the selected object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data; and in response to a determination that no object type of the first set of object types is represented in the image data; determine whether the image data comprises an object characteristic of a specific one of a second set of object types based, at least in part, on a first criterion; and in response to a determination that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types, indicate that the image data comprises an object characteristic of the specific one of the second set of object types. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer program product comprising:
-
a computer readable storage device with program code stored thereon which, when executed by one or more processors of a device, enables the device to; capture image data using an image sensor of the device; determine, by the device, whether the image data comprises a representation of a first type of object; in response to a determination that the image data does not comprise a representation of the first type of object; determine that the image data comprises a characteristic of a second type of object based, at least in part, on a focus distance associated with the image data; and in response to a determination that the image data comprises the characteristic of the second type of object, indicating that the image data comprises a characteristic of the second type of object. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
