Devices and methods for capturing and interacting with enhanced digital images
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- at an electronic device with a display, a camera, one or more processors, and memory;
while in a first media acquisition mode for the camera;
displaying a live preview on the display;
while displaying the live preview, detecting activation of a shutter button at a first time; and
in response to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time;
grouping a plurality of images acquired by the camera in temporal proximity to the activation of the shutter button at the first time into a first sequence of images, wherein the first sequence of images includes;
a plurality of images acquired by the camera at a first resolution prior to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time;
a representative image that represents the first sequence of images and was acquired by the camera at a second resolution after one or more of the other images in the first sequence of images; and
a plurality of images acquired by the camera at the first resolution after acquiring the representative image;
wherein the second resolution is higher than the first resolution of the images in the first sequence other than the representative image.

Abstract
An electronic device includes a camera. While in a first media acquisition mode for the camera the device displays a live preview on the display. While displaying the live preview, the device detects activation of a shutter button. In response to detecting activation of the shutter button, the device groups a plurality of images acquired by the camera in temporal proximity to the activation of the shutter button into a sequence of images. The sequence of images includes: a plurality of images acquired by the camera prior to detecting activation of the shutter button; a representative image that represents the first sequence of images and was acquired by the camera after one or more of the other images in the first sequence of images; and a plurality of images acquired by the camera after acquiring the representative image.

27. An electronic device, comprising:
-
a display; a camera; one or more processors; memory; and one or more programs, wherein the one or more programs are stored in the memory and configured to be executed by the one or more processors, the one or more programs including instructions for; while in a first media acquisition mode for the camera; displaying a live preview on the display; while displaying the live preview, detecting activation of a shutter button at a first time; and in response to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time; grouping a plurality of images acquired by the camera in temporal proximity to the activation of the shutter button at the first time into a first sequence of images, wherein the first sequence of images includes; a plurality of images acquired by the camera at a first resolution prior to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time; a representative image that represents the first sequence of images and was acquired by the camera at a second resolution after one or more of the other images in the first sequence of images; and a plurality of images acquired by the camera at the first resolution after acquiring the representative image; wherein the second resolution is higher than the first resolution of the images in the first sequence other than the representative image.

28. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising instructions, which when executed by an electronic device with a display, a camera, memory, and one or more processors, cause the device to:
while in a first media acquisition mode for the camera; display a live preview on the display; while displaying the live preview, detect activation of a shutter button at a first time; and in response to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time; group a plurality of images acquired by the camera in temporal proximity to the activation of the shutter button at the first time into a first sequence of images, wherein the first sequence of images includes; a plurality of images acquired by the camera at a first resolution prior to detecting activation of the shutter button at the first time; a representative image that represents the first sequence of images and was acquired by the camera at a second resolution after one or more of the other images in the first sequence of images; and a plurality of images acquired by the camera at the first resolution after acquiring the representative image; wherein the second resolution is higher than the first resolution of the images in the first sequence other than the representative image.
