Automatic Capture Modes
First Claim
1. An image capture device operable in any one of a plurality of capture modes, the device comprising:
- an image sensor;
a memory arranged to store a plurality of sets of capture triggers, wherein each set of capture triggers is associated with one of the plurality of capture modes; and
a processor arranged to select one of the plurality of capture modes, such that the device is operable in the selected capture mode, wherein an image is captured automatically when a capture trigger within the associated set of capture triggers is satisfied.

Abstract
An image capture device is described which is operable in any one of a number of capture modes. The device comprises a camera, a memory and a processor. The memory stores a plurality of sets of capture triggers, with each set of capture triggers being associated with one of the plurality of capture modes. The processor selects one of the plurality of capture modes, such that the device is operable in the selected capture mode. In the selected capture mode, an image is captured automatically when a capture trigger within the associated set of capture triggers is satisfied.

9. A method of capturing images comprising the steps of:
-
selecting a capture mode from a set of at least two capture modes; accessing a set of capture triggers associated with the selected capture mode; triggering capture of an image when an input received satisfies a capture trigger within the accessed set of capture triggers; and selecting another capture mode from the set of at least two capture modes when mode change parameters are satisfied. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
