The digital image processing apparatus in FIG. 1 may be, for example, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a PMA (Portable Multimedia Player), or a mobile phone that can reproduce an image from an image file stored in an image storage medium. Referring to FIG. 1, the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention includes an image storage medium 70 storing an image file, a display unit 80 displaying an image from the image file stored in the image storage medium 70, and a mood determination unit (not shown) determining a mood of an image or of the image of the image file.
As shown in FIG. 1, the digital image processing apparatus may further include an image storing/reading control unit 71, a display control unit 81, a music storage medium 90, a music storing/reading control unit 94, a music output unit 95, a music output control unit 96, a memory 60, a digital signal processing (DSP) unit 50, a central processing unit (CPU) 100, and/or a manipulation unit 200. Hereinafter, for convenience's sake the digital image processing apparatus having the elements, as illustrated in FIG. 1, will be described in detail.
In an embodiment, the CPU 100 controls all operations of the digital image processing apparatus. The digital image processing apparatus includes the manipulation unit 200 having keys generating an electrical signal in response to a user's instruction. The electrical signal generated by the manipulation unit 200 is transmitted to the CPU 100 so that the CPU 100 can control the digital image processing apparatus in response to the electrical signal.
Alternatively, the image storing/reading control unit 71 may read data from the image file stored in the image storage medium 70 and provide the read data to the display control unit 81 via the memory 60 or via another path so that an image can be displayed on the display unit 80. The image storage medium 70 may be easily attached to and detached from the digital image processing apparatus or may be built in the digital image processing apparatus. Here, the memory 60 includes a read-only memory (ROM) or a random access memory (RAM). Of course, the data from the image file stored in the image storage medium 70 may be provided to the display control unit 81 in various manners, for example, via the DSP unit 50 described below.
The DSP unit 50 can perform digital signal processing, such as gamma correction or white balance correction, if needed. In addition, the DSP unit 50 may include the mood determination unit so that the user can effectively determine the mood of the image when the image from the image file is displayed on the display unit 80. The mood determination unit may be implemented as a separate element, rather than as part of the DSP unit 50. The mood determination unit may be implemented in various forms, for example, as part of other elements. In other words, the mood determination unit may be implemented in various forms as long as the mood determination unit is included in the digital image processing apparatus. Functions of the mood determination unit will be described below. Data output from the DSP unit 50 may be transmitted via the memory 60 or directly to the display control unit 81. The display control unit 81 controls the display unit 80 in order to display the image on the display unit 80.
The music output control unit 96 controls the music output unit 95 to output data on music of a music file stored in the music storage medium 90. The music output unit 95 may be a speaker, a terminal that can be connected with a jack, such as earphones, headphones, etc.
The digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention plays music with a mood that matches the mood of the image from the image file that is determined by the mood determination unit, when the image from the image file stored in the image storage unit 70 is displayed on the display unit 80. That is, once the mood determination unit determines the mood of the image of the image file, music with a mood that matches the mood of the image as determined by the mood determination unit may be played back when the image from the image file is displayed on the display unit 80, so that the user can effectively appreciate the image. In particular, the mood determination unit automatically determines the mood of the image from the image file without requiring further user's manipulations, music with a mood that matches the mood of the image as determined by the mood determination unit is played back when the image of the image file is displayed on the display unit 80, so that the user can appreciate the image without requiring further user manipulations while listening to the music with the mood that matches the mood of the image being displayed. In another embodiment, the mood of the image may be selected by the user.
FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram of an example of a structure of an image file 42 stored in the image storage medium 70, which may be built in the digital image processing apparatus of FIG. 1 or may be attachable to and detachable from the digital image processing apparatus of FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 2, the image file 42 includes a header portion 44, a main image data portion 46, and a screen nail image data portion 48. Of course, the image file that is stored in and reproduced by the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the structure as illustrated in FIG. 2 and may have various other structures.
The main image data portion 46 includes data of the image. The header portion includes data 44, such as a manufacturer of the digital image processing apparatus used to obtain the image file, shooting date and time, a shutter speed, an aperture (iris) value, a zoom ratio, a thumbnail image, and the like. A thumbnail image is an image reduced from a main image stored in the main image data portion. The screen nail image data portion 48 includes data of a smaller image than the main image that can be used to be displayed, instead of the main image, on the display unit 80. A screen nail image means an image displayed on the display unit 80 in a playback mode of, for example, a digital photographing apparatus.
In the structure of the image file 42 described above, the header portion 44 includes Exif information, so that the mood determination unit can determine a mood of an image from an image file, based on the Exif information of the image file. In other words, the mood determination unit may determine the mood of the image of the image file based on a shutter speed or an aperture value that were set to obtain the image file and stored in the header portion 44 of the image file 42. For example, if the aperture value is large and the shutter speed is fast, the image file may be presumed to have been obtained in circumstances with a sufficient amount of ambient light. Thus, the image from the image file may be determined to have a bright mood. Thus, in this case, the mood determination unit may determine the mood of the image from the image file to be bright and light. Meanwhile, if the aperture value is small and the shutter speed is slow, the image file 42 may be presumed to have been obtained in circumstances with an insufficient amount of ambient light. Thus, the image from the image file 42 may have a dark or calm mood. Thus, in this case, the mood determination unit may determine the mood of the image from the image file to be dark or calm.
FIG. 3 is a schematic block diagram of a digital image processing apparatus according to another embodiment of the present invention. The digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention, which is a digital photographing apparatus, further includes an image capture device 30, as illustrated in FIG. 4, in addition to the elements of the digital image processing apparatus described with reference to FIG. 1. The digital image processing apparatus of FIG. 3 may also further include a lens 10, an iris 20, an image capture device 30, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 40, a lens driving unit 11, an iris driving unit 21, and an image capture device controller 31. The image capture device 30 generates data from incident light.
In a shooting mode of the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention, if an electrical signal generated in response to a user's instruction through the manipulation unit 200 is applied to the CPU 100, the CPU 100 analyzes the electrical signal and controls a lens driving unit 11, an iris driving unit 21, and an image capture device controller 31, thus controlling the location of a lens 10, the degree of openness of an iris 20, and the sensitivity of an image capture device 30, respectively. If a data signal of the image is output from the image capture device 30, the data signal is converted into digital image data by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) 40 and then input to the CPU 100 and the DSP unit 50. The DSP unit 50 may perform digital signal processing, such as gamma correction, white balance correction, and the like, if needed.
Image data output from the DSP unit 50 is transmitted to the display control unit 81 via the memory 60. Here, the memory 60 includes a ROM or a RAM. The display control unit 81 controls the display unit 80 to display an image on the display unit 80. Image data output from the DSP unit 50 is input to the image storing/reading control unit 71 via the memory 60. The image storing/reading control unit 71 stores the image data in the image storage medium 70 automatically or in response to a signal received from the user. Alternatively, in the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention, the image storing/reading control unit 71 may read image data from the image file stored in the image storage medium 70 and provide the read image data via the memory 60 to the display control unit 81 so that the image can be displayed on the display unit 80.
In the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention, when an image file from the image data generated by the image capture device 30 is stored in the image storage medium 70, the mood determination unit determines the mood of the image based on the image data generated by the image capture device 30 and records mood data regarding the mood of the image from the image file in the header portion of the image file. When the image from the image file stored in the image storage medium 70 is displayed on the display unit 80, the mood data stored in the header portion of the image file is read, and music with a mood that matches the mood of the image of the image file displayed on the display unit 80 is played back.
When storing the image file in the image storage medium 70, mood data regarding the mood of the image from the image file is recorded in the header portion of the image file. In this case, the mood data may define a concrete mood of the image. Examples of concrete moods that may be recorded include a bright mood, a light mood, a dark mood, a calm mood, and the like.
When the mood data is recorded in the header portion of the image file, the mood of the image of the image file displayed on the display unit 80 may be determined based on the shutter speed or the aperture value of the digital image processing apparatus that was set to obtain the image file and then recorded as the mood data. For example, in an embodiment, if the aperture value is large and the shutter speed is fast, the image file may be presumed to have been obtained in circumstances with a sufficient amount of ambient light. Thus, the image from the image file may have a bright mood. Thus, in this case, the mood determination unit may determine the mood of the image to be bright and light. Meanwhile, if the aperture value is small and the shutter speed is slow, the image file may be presumed to have been obtained in circumstances with an insufficient amount of ambient light. Thus, the image from the image file may have a dark or calm mood. Thus, in this case, the mood determination unit may determine the mood of the image to be dark or calm. The present invention is not limited to determining the mood of an image based on the shutter speed or the aperture value and may be implemented in various forms. For example, the mood of the image from the image file may be determined by analyzing colors that are mainly included in the image from the image file. For example, if primary colors are mainly included in the image, the mood of the image from the image file may be determined to be bright and light. If achromatic colors are mainly included in the image, the mood of the image from the image file may be determined to be dark or heavy.
In addition, the digital image processing apparatus according to the current embodiment of the present invention, which may be a digital photographing apparatus, may have a function of selecting one of a plurality of shooting modes, including a portrait shooting mode, a landscape shooting mode, and a sports shooting mode. When the mood data is recorded in the header portion of an image file after the image file is obtained, the mood of an image of the image file displayed on the display unit 80 may be determined based on the shooting mode of the digital image processing apparatus that was set to obtain the image file and is recorded as the mood data of the image. For example, an image from an image file obtained in a sports shooting mode may be presumed normally to be full of excitement, and the mood of the image may be recorded to be exciting in the header portion of the image file. In addition, an image from an image file obtained in a landscape shooting mode may be presumed normally to be contemplative, and the mood of the image may be recorded to be calm in the header portion of the image file. The present invention may be not limited to determining the mood of an image of an image file, which will be recorded as mood data, based on the shooting mode of the digital image processing apparatus that was set to obtain the image file, and may be implemented in various forms. For example, the mood of the image of the image file displayed on the display unit 80 may be determined further in consideration of the shutter speed or the aperture value that was set to obtain the image file, in addition to the shooting mode.
FIG. 4 is a conceptual diagram of music files stored under a plurality of folders in the music storage medium 90 of the digital image processing apparatuses according to the embodiments of the present invention described above. When the digital image processing apparatus includes the music storage medium 90, the music storage medium 90 may have a plurality of folders, each of which corresponds to a specific mood. FIG. 4 illustrates a case where the music storage medium 90 has three folders, i.e., a rapid and loud music folder 91, a low and light music folder 92, and a slow and heavy music folder 93. A plurality of music files are stored under each folder.
In this case, when an image from an image file stored in the image storage medium 80 is displayed on the display unit 80, music of a music file under one of the folders that is present to correspond to the mood of the image being displayed is played back. The user may store his/her favorite music files under each of the folders that is preset to correspond to the mood of each music file. In the case of displaying an image from an image file stored in the image storage medium 80 while playing back music of a music file under the folder preset to correspond to the mood that matches the mood of the image being displayed, if the corresponding folder includes a plurality of music files that may be sequentially or randomly played back. Each folder of the music storage medium 90 may be preset by the user to correspond to a specific mood.
Unlike the structure of the music storage medium 90 illustrated in FIG. 4, the music storage medium 90 that may be included in the digital image processing apparatus may store a plurality of music files without folders. In this case, music of each music file may be preset by the user as one having a specific mood.
In addition, although the music storage medium 90 and the image storage medium 70 are illustrated as being separate in the digital image processing apparatuses in FIGS. 1 and 3, this is only for the convenience of illustration. Thus, the music storage medium 90 and the image storage medium 70 may be implemented in various forms, for example, may be integrated into a single element.
