Abstract

Disclosed is an image data processing method, and more particularly, to a method for photo editing and a terminal using the same method. The method of photo editing in a mobile terminal may include discernibly displaying a plurality of similar pictures with a reference picture and a compared picture, receiving an edit command for the displayed reference picture, applying the received edit command similarly to the compared picture, and displaying the execution result of the edit command for the reference picture and the compared picture at the same time.

Claims

1. A method of a mobile communication terminal comprising:

receiving a first image at the mobile communication terminal;

receiving a second image at the mobile communication terminal;

displaying the first image on a screen of the mobile communication terminal;

displaying the second image on the screen of the mobile communication terminal;

determining an area of the first image displayed on the screen; and

determining a corresponding area of the second image displayed on the screen.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein determining the corresponding area includes determining the corresponding area of the second image based on a user input received with respect to the first image displayed on the screen.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising changing a characteristic of the area of the first image and changing a characteristic of the corresponding area of the second image.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising performing an editing of the first image displayed on the screen based on a user input with respect to the first image displayed on the screen.

5. The method of claim 4, wherein performing the editing includes enlarging the area of the first image and enlarging the corresponding area of the second image based on the user input with respect to the first image.

6. The method of claim 4, wherein performing the editing includes moving the area of the first image and moving the corresponding area of the second image based on the user input with respect to the first image.

7. The method of claim 4, wherein performing the editing includes highlighting the area of the first image and highlighting the corresponding area of the second image.

8. The method of claim 1, further comprising deleting one of the first image or the second image displayed on the screen.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising determining a difference between the area of the displayed first image and the corresponding area of the displayed second image.

10. The method of claim 1, further comprising arranging the first image and the second image displayed on the screen based on a perceived quality of the area of the first image and a perceived quality of the corresponding area of the second image.

11. The method of claim 1, further comprising providing identifiers for the first image and the second image displayed on the screen based on a perceived quality of the area of the first image and the corresponding area of the second image.

12. The method of claim 1, further comprising providing identifiers for the first image and the second image based on an order of the first image and the second image.

13. The method of claim 1, further comprising providing identifiers for the first image and the second image based on a time gap between the first image and the second image.

14. A mobile communication terminal, comprising:

a display to display a first image and a second image on a screen; and

a controller to determine an area of the first image displayed on the screen, and to determine a corresponding area of the second image displayed on the screen.

15. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller determines the corresponding area of the second image based on a user input received with respect to the displayed first image.

16. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller performs an editing of the first image based on a user input with respect to the first image displayed on the screen.

17. The mobile communication terminal of claim 16, wherein the controller changes a characterization of the area of the first image and changes a characterization of the corresponding area of the second image based on a user input with respect to the first image.

18. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller deletes one of the first image or the second image displayed on the screen based on a user input.

19. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller determines a difference between the area of the first image and the corresponding area of the second image.

20. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller arranges the first image and the second image displayed on the screen based on a perceived quality of the area of the first image and a perceived quality of the corresponding area of the second image.

21. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller provides identifiers for the first image and the second image displayed on the screen based on a perceived quality of the area of the first image and a perceived quality of the corresponding area of the second image.

22. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller provides identifiers for the first image and the second image based on an order of the first image and the second image.

23. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, wherein the controller provides identifiers for the first image and the second image based on a time gap between the first image and the second image.

24. The mobile communication terminal of claim 14, further comprising a camera to receive the first image and the second image.
