8. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
-
a motion sensor configured for sensing an orientation of the electronic apparatus; an image capturing unit; a display unit configured for displaying a user interface; and a processing unit coupled with the motion sensor, the image capturing unit and the display unit, wherein, in response to the image capturing unit shoots a first image, the processing unit is configured for calculating a plurality of feature points within the first image, calculating a maximal rotation angle of the electronic apparatus rotating along a direction according to a distribution of the feature points within the first image, and prompting a relative position of the maximal rotation angle on the user interface, in response to the motion sensor detects that the electronic apparatus has been rotated by the maximal rotation angle along the direction, the processing unit is configured for driving the image capturing unit to shoot a second image, the first image and the second image are configured to be jointed as a panorama image. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11)
