Abstract:
A method and system for assisting a user in manually capturing overlapping images for composite image generation using a camera (110). The method and system includes dividing the view finder (402) into a first and second zone (556) in response to the user capturing a first image (552). The portion of the first image (440a) that is to overlap with the next image is then displayed (558) on the first zone (A) of the view finder (402), while a live image is displayed (560) in the second zone (B). The two zones of the view finder thereby enable the user to align (562) the live image with the first image before capturing (564) the next image.
Abstract:
A method and system for minimizing image naming conflicts when capturing a plurality of images in a digital camera (110). The method and system includes incrementing a count in response to an image being captured, the count being a non-repeating number representing the total number of images captured by the digital camera (110), and associating the count with the captured image to provide a unique image identifier.
