Patent Description:
During surveys or inspections, the following needs are often encountered. For example, an image of a <NUM>-meter iron tower needs to be taken, and every detail of the of the detail parts of the iron tower need to be check to determine if any screws are rusted, or the steel is abnormal.

However, in traditional technology, it is difficult to shoot with a combination of wide-angle and high-power zoom lenses. A user cannot conveniently perform the functional operations of the combined lens through the software application, nor can the user intuitively obtain the parameter changes of the combined lens, and the user experience is poor.

<CIT> discloses: Positional and elevation data obtained from a camera unit is correlated with coordinates in an entire image display portion, used as a GUI having positional information to select a specified image with a mouse. Which frame this corresponds to in the entire image is calculated, and further, the position within the clicked frame is calculated. The calculated positional information is converted into positional information and elevation data of the frame. The camera unit is controlled with the positional information and elevation data from the camera unit, and an image of a range indicated by a specified image display frame superimposed on the display portion is taken, and stored and/or displayed. This allows confirmation an image of a range to be photographed beforehand, and the user can tell the relation between the range capable of acquiring images and the photography range at a glance, so desired portions can be continuously monitored.

<CIT> discloses techniques for inspection management in a movable object environment. An inspection application can receive data from an inspection application and use this data to generate one or more inspection missions. When a user selects an inspection mission in the inspection application, the inspection application can instruct a movable object to perform the selected inspection mission. The movable object can follow one or more dynamically generated paths around a target object and capture a plurality of images. The images can be viewed in a viewing application to perform an inspection of the target object.

In some embodiments, the movable platform <NUM> may be an aircraft (such as an unmanned aerial vehicle), a gimbal cart, a handheld gimbal, a robot, etc. The control terminal <NUM> may be a device such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc., and may also have a remote control function to realize remote control of the movable platform <NUM>. The movable platform <NUM> may include a gimbal, and the imaging device <NUM> may be mounted on the gimbal. The imaging device <NUM> may include a first lens and a second lens, which may be respectively used to perform different imaging tasks. The first lens and the second lens may be lenses corresponding to the conventional imaging function of a camera. The first lens and the second lens are a wide-angle lens and a zoom lens, respectively. In some embodiments, the wide-angle lens may be used to obtain a complete image, and the zoom lens may be used to obtain high-definition details. The gimbal may be used to adjust the imaging angle of the imaging device <NUM>, and the movable platform <NUM> may be used to ensure smooth movement without drift. The control terminal <NUM> may be used to control the movement of the movable platform <NUM>. The control terminal <NUM> may also obtain the captured image returned by the imaging device <NUM> for the user to view. In addition, the control terminal <NUM> may also obtain the user's control instruction to the imaging device <NUM>, and send the control instruction to the imaging device. The control instruction may be, for example, an instruction to control the zoom factor of the zoom lens of the imaging device <NUM>, or may be an instruction to control the imaging range of the zoom lens of the imaging device <NUM>, etc..

In the present disclosure, the description is made by taking the movable platform <NUM> as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) as an example. The unmanned aerial vehicle may include various types of UAV <NUM>, such as a quadrotor UAV, a hexarotor UAV, etc. The gimbal may be a three-axis gimbal. That is, the attitude of the gimbal may be controlled on the pitch axis, roll axis, and yaw axis, thereby determining the orientation of the gimbal, such that the imaging device <NUM> mounted on the gimbal can complete the corresponding imaging tasks.

In the present disclosure, the UAV may establish a communication connection with the control terminal <NUM> described above through a wireless connection method (e.g., a wireless connection method based on Wi-Fi or radio frequency communication, etc.). the control terminal <NUM> may be a controller with a rocker and a display screen, and the UAV may be controller by the amount of rocker displacement. The control terminal <NUM> may also be a smart device such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, etc., which can control the automatic flight of the UAV by configuring the flight trajectory on a user interface (UI), or control the automatic flight of the UAV by body sensing, or control the automatic flight of the UAV along a recorded flight trajectory after pre-recording the flight trajectory during the flight of the UAV.

In the present disclosure, the imaging device <NUM> may also establish a communication connection with the control terminal <NUM> described above through a wireless connection method (e.g., a wireless connection method based on Wi-Fi or radio frequency communication, etc.). An application software for controlling the imaging device <NUM> may be installed on the control terminal <NUM>. The user may use the application software to view the captured image returned by the imaging device on the display interface of the control terminal <NUM>, and the application software can also provide an interactive interface between the user and the control terminal <NUM> and the imaging device <NUM>.

Next, in conjunction with the display interface of the control terminal, the display method provided in the present disclosure will be described from the following four aspects: <NUM>. adjusting the definition of the details of the image; <NUM>. selecting the detail imaging area; <NUM>. shooting; and <NUM>. viewing the imaging result.

<FIG> exemplarily illustrate the display interface of the control terminal <NUM>.

As shown in <FIG>, the display interface includes a display area <NUM>, an ultra-resolution control <NUM>, a zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>, and a switching control <NUM>. In some embodiments, the display area <NUM> may be used to display an image obtained by a wide-angle lens or a zoom lens. The display area <NUM> shown in <FIG> is displaying an image (WIDE) obtained by the wide-angle lens. The ultra-resolution control <NUM> may be used to enter an ultra-resolution imaging mode. The control terminal <NUM> may be configured to obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the ultra-resolution control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may enter the ultra-resolution imaging mode. The zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> may be used to adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens. The control terminal <NUM> may be configured to obtain a user operation (such as an upward sliding operation or a downward sliding operation) acting on the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the imaging device <NUM> may adjust (e.g., increase or decrease) the zoom factor of the zoom lens.

The user operation is not limited to the upward sliding operation or the downward sliding operation. In specific implementation, the user operation may also be a left sliding operation, a right sliding operation, or a clicking operation, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

The switching control <NUM> may be used to switch the content being displayed in the display area <NUM>, such as switching the image obtained by the wide-angle lens being displayed in the display area <NUM> to the image obtained by the zoom lens, or switch the image obtained by the zoom lens being displayed in the display area <NUM> to the image obtained by the wide-angle lens.

Next, the content currently being displayed in the display area <NUM> in the display interface as an image obtained by a wide-angle lens is taken as an example to describe the process of adjusting the definition of the details of the image.

First, the content being displayed in the display area <NUM> may need to be switched to the image obtained by the zoom lens, and then the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> may need to be adjusted until the definition of the image obtained by the zoom lens meets the user's needs.

Specifically, the control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the switching control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may switch the image (WIDE) obtained by the wide-angle lens displayed in the display area <NUM> to the image (ZOOM) obtained by the zoom lens shown in <FIG>. At this time, the user can intuitively view the image obtained by the zoom lens, and adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens by adjusting the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> until the definition of the image obtained by the zoom lens meets the user's requirements.

Specifically, the control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as an upward sliding operation or a downward sliding operation) acting on the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may send an instruction to adjust the zoom factor to the imaging device <NUM>. The instruction may carry information about the zoom factor, and the imaging device <NUM> may adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens based on the instruction, and send the image obtained by the adjusted zoom lens to the control terminal <NUM>. In this way, the control terminal <NUM> can display the image obtained by the zoom lens after the zoom factor adjustment in the display area <NUM> of the display interface in real time, until the definition of the image obtained by the zoom lens meets the user's requirements.

The adjustment of the zoom factor of the zoom lens is not limited to the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>. In some specific implementation, the zoom factor of the zoom lens may also be adjusted by adjusting a scroll wheel on the control terminal <NUM>.

It should be understood that the higher the zoom factor, the higher the definition of the image obtained by the zoom lens; and the lower the zoom factor, the lower the definition of the image obtained by the zoom lens.

Selecting the detail imaging area.

After determining the zoom factor of the zoom lens, the user may click the switching control <NUM> again to cause the display area <NUM> in the display interface to switch the image (ZOOM) obtained by the zoom lens to the image obtained by the wide-angle lens (WIDE).

At this time, the control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the ultra-resolution control <NUM>, and in response to the user operations, the control terminal <NUM> may enter the ultra-resolution imaging mode. Specifically, the display interface shown in <FIG> can be displayed.

That is, in response to the user operation acting on the ultra-resolution control <NUM>, the control terminal <NUM> may display a first detail imaging area <NUM> in the display interface. The first detail imaging area <NUM> may be used to display the imaging range of the zoom lens. At this time, the position of the first detail imaging area <NUM> in the display interface may be determined by an initial direction of the zoom lens. The user may select the detail imaging area that needs to be captured by the zoom lens by adjusting the first detail imaging area <NUM>.

Specifically, as shown in <FIG>, the first detail imaging area <NUM> includes an adjustment control <NUM>, and the adjustment control <NUM> may be used to adjust the size of the first detail imaging area <NUM>. For example, the user may input a sliding operation towards the upper-left corner of the display interface after pressing the adjustment control <NUM> to reduce the size of the first detail imaging area <NUM>. The user may also input sliding operation towards the lower-right corner of the display interface after pressing the first detail imaging area <NUM> to increase the size of the first detail imaging area <NUM>.

In addition, the user may also adjust the position of the first detail imaging area <NUM> by dragging the first detail imaging area <NUM>.

Specifically, when the user drags the first detail imaging area <NUM>, the control terminal <NUM> may display a maximum adjustment range <NUM> as shown in <FIG> on the display interface to prompt the user that the first detail imaging area <NUM> cannot be moved out of the maximum adjustment range <NUM>. In some embodiments, the maximum adjustment range <NUM> may be the maximum imaging range of the zoom lens, and the maximum adjustment range <NUM> may be determined by a maximum rotation angle of the gimbal.

Possibly, the control terminal <NUM> may determine whether the user's adjustment of the first detail imaging area <NUM> exceeds the maximum adjustment range <NUM> described above, and if so, a prompt message may be output. The adjustment of the first detail imaging area <NUM> described above may include adjusting the position, or size, or size and position of the first detail imaging area <NUM>. The prompt message described above may be, for example, at least one of text information, vibration information, flashing light prompt information, or sound prompt information. The prompt information may be used to prompt that the current adjustment of the first detail imaging area <NUM> exceeds the maximum adjustment range.

The display of the maximum adjustment range is not limited to when dragging the first detail imaging area <NUM>. In some possible embodiments, after entering the ultra-resolution mode, that is, after the user clicks the ultra-resolution control <NUM>, the control terminal <NUM> may display the maximum adjustment range <NUM> on the display interface.

Causing the control terminal <NUM> to display of the first detail imaging area <NUM> is not limited to clicking on the ultra-resolution control <NUM>. In a specific implementation, the user may manually select an area in the display interface to make the control terminal <NUM> determine that the area is the first detail imaging area and display it, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

It should be understood that the first detail imaging area <NUM> includes one or more sub-areas, and the number of the sub-areas represents the number of images that the zoom lens needs to capture. When the size of the of the imaging area is the same, the larger the zoom factor of the zoom lens, the more images the zoom lens needs to capture. As shown in <FIG>, when the zoom factor of the zoom lens is <NUM>, the number of sub-areas is <NUM>, that is, the number of images that the zoom lens needs to capture is <NUM>. As shown in <FIG>, when the zoom factor of the zoom lens is <NUM>, the number of sub-areas is <NUM>, that is, the number of images that the zoom lens needs to capture is <NUM>.

The user may adjust the zoom factor at this time, and an increase of the zoom factor may cause the maximum adjustment range <NUM> to decrease. When the maximum adjustment range <NUM> is reduced to affect the first detail imaging area <NUM>, the maximum adjustment range <NUM> and the first detail imaging area <NUM> may be reduced in the display interface at the same time, and the first detail imaging area <NUM> may be kept within the maximum adjustment range <NUM> at all times.

Comparing <FIG>, it can be seen that when the zoom factor is adjusted from <NUM> to <NUM>, the maximum adjustment range <NUM> is reduced, the first detail imaging area <NUM> is also reduced at the same time, and the first detail imaging area <NUM> is always within the maximum adjustment range <NUM>. This is caused by the maximum rotation angle of the gimbal. When the maximum rotation angle of the gimbal is fixed, the larger the zoom factor of the zoom lens, the smaller the focus range of the zoom lens may be in a single shot. As a result, the zoom lens can capture a smaller range under the drive of the gimbal, which can be reflected in the size of the maximum adjustment range <NUM>.

Referring to <FIG>. In addition to the first detail imaging area <NUM>, the display interface also includes an exit control <NUM>, an imaging control <NUM>, and shooting information <NUM>. In some embodiments, the exit control <NUM> may be used to exit the ultra-resolution imaging mode. The control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the exit control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may exit the ultra-resolution imaging mode and display the display interface shown in <FIG>. The imaging control <NUM> may be used to start capturing an image. The control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the imaging control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may start capturing an image. The shooting information <NUM> may be used to indicate the shooting information, such as the number of images of the zoom lens and the shooting duration, etc. For example, as shown in <FIG>, the number of images of the zoom lens is <NUM>, and the shooting duration of the zoom lens is <NUM> seconds.

Possibly, the control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the imaging control <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may detect whether an imaging condition is current met. When the imaging condition is met, the shooting may start.

Specifically, the imaging condition may be, for example, that the power of the UAV is sufficient, the wind in the current imaging environment does not exceed a threshold, etc. In some embodiments, the whether the UAV's battery is sufficient may depend on the duration of the shoot. Further, the wind force in the current imaging environment may not exceed the threshold to ensure that the UAV can fly steadily, thereby ensuring the quality of the images captured by the imaging device <NUM>.

After the control terminal <NUM> starts to capture images, it may automatically switch the display content of the display area <NUM> to the image (ZOOM) obtained by a zoom lens, as shown in <FIG>. In this way, the user can intuitively view the detailed image captured by the zoom lens, check whether the zoom lens has a clear focus, and whether the image obtained by the zoom lens is blurred.

In addition, after the control terminal <NUM> starts to capture images, the control terminal <NUM> may also display an imaging progress <NUM>, a stop control <NUM>, and a prompt box <NUM> on the display interface. In some embodiments, the imaging progress <NUM> may be used to indicate the current imaging progress, such as <NUM>%. The stop control <NUM> may be used to stop the current ultra-resolution imaging process. The control terminal <NUM> may obtain a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the display area <NUM>, and in response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may stop the current imaging process. The prompt box <NUM> may be used to remind the user that analysis and shooting are currently underway, and please do not manipulate the rocker of the remote control, etc., to ensure the smooth flight of the UAV, thereby ensuring the quality of the images obtained by the imaging device.

After the user switches the display content of the display area <NUM> to the image (WIDE) obtained by the wide-angle lens, the control terminal <NUM> may mark the area currently being imaged on the display interface.

Specifically, the first detail imaging area <NUM> includes one or more sub-areas, and these sub-areas may be arranged in a preset order. The preset order may be from left to right, and from top to bottom. The control terminal <NUM> may sequentially mark the area currently being imaged based on the preset order described above during the process of capturing the image by the zoom lens. As shown in <FIG>, the second area is currently being imaged, and the control terminal <NUM> may mark this area. The method of marking the area may be at least one of increasing the display, increasing the display border, increasing the display mark, using a special display color, or using a special transparent display.

In the imaging process, when an abnormal situation occurs and the imaging is interrupted, the control terminal <NUM> may display a prompt box <NUM> as shown in <FIG> on the display interface. As shown in <FIG>, the prompt box <NUM> includes an information display area <NUM>, a view control <NUM>, and an exit control <NUM>. In some embodiments, the information display area <NUM> may be used to display the reason for the interruption of imaging (such as "you have stopped ultra-resolution imaging"), imaging progress (such as <NUM>%), and the number of captured images (such as <NUM>/<NUM>, which indicates that the total number of images to be captured is <NUM>, and currently <NUM> images have been captured). The view control <NUM> may be used to view the imaging result. The control terminal <NUM> may detect a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the view control <NUM>, and in response of the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may display the imaging result on the display interface. The exit control <NUM> may be used to exit the current imaging. The control terminal <NUM> may detect a user operation (such as a clicking operation) acting on the exit control <NUM>, and in response of the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may exit the current imaging and display the display interface shown in <FIG>.

The abnormal situation described above may be, but is not limited to, that the user clicks on the stop control <NUM>, the rocker of the remote control is moved, the wind in the current flight environment is too strong, the current remaining power of the UAV is insufficient, etc..

Possibly, after the imaging is interrupted due to abnormal situations, the control terminal <NUM> may also display a prompt box <NUM> shown in <FIG> on the display interface after exiting the current imaging to remind the user of the reason for the abnormal exit, such as "exiting the ultra-resolution imaging mode as the rocker of the remote control is moved.

After the imaging is complete, the user may view the imaging result on the control terminal <NUM>. <FIG> is an example of an imaging result.

As shown in <FIG>, the display interface includes an image name indicator <NUM>, a sharing control <NUM>, an editing control <NUM>, a deletion control <NUM>, a first detail shooting area <NUM>, and a content display area <NUM>. In some embodiments, the image name indicator <NUM> may be used to indicate the name of the image, and the name of the image as shown in <FIG> is DJI000001. Further, the image name indicator <NUM> may also be used to indicate the format of the image. As shown in <FIG>, the format of the image is. The sharing control <NUM> may be used to share the image to other devices. The editing control <NUM> may be used to edit the image, such as cropping, rotating, adding filters, adding marks, etc. The deletion control <NUM> may be used to delete the image. Specifically, the image may be stored in the memory of the control terminal <NUM>, and the deletion control <NUM> may be used to delete the image from the memory of the control terminal <NUM>. The first detail shooting area <NUM> may be used to indicate the position of the first detail shooting area, that is, the position of the image obtained by the zoom lens in the image obtained by the wide-angle lens. The content display area <NUM> may be used to display the image obtained by the wide-angle lens.

The user may use the images obtained by the wide-angle lens as an index to view the images obtained by the zoom lens. The position of the image obtained by the zoom lens in the image obtained by the wide-angle lens may be notified to the user through the first detail shooting area <NUM>.

Specifically, the first detail shooting area <NUM> may include one or more sub-areas that correspond to one or more sub-areas included in the first detail shooting area when the detail shooting area in the second part is selected.

The control terminal <NUM> may detect a user operation acting on any sub-area in the first detail shooting area (such as a clicking operation acting on a first sub-area (that is, the upper left corner)). In response to the user operation, the control terminal <NUM> may display the detailed view of the sub-area shown in <FIG> on the display interface.

As shown in <FIG>, the image name indicator <NUM> is used to indicate the sequence number of the detail image of the currently viewed sub-area in the first detail shooting area, such as <NUM> of <NUM>, indicating that the first detail shooting area includes four sub-areas, and the detail image of the first sub-area is currently being viewed.

The content display area <NUM> may be used to display a detailed image of the sub-area.

The user may also input a sliding operation in the content display area <NUM> to view the detailed image of the sub-area adjacent to the sub-area.

For example, the control terminal <NUM> may acquire a left sliding operation acting on the content display area <NUM> in <FIG>. In response to the left sliding operation, the control terminal <NUM> may display the detailed image corresponding to the second sub-area (that is, the sub-area in the upper right corner of the first detail shooting area in <FIG>).

In another example, the control terminal <NUM> may acquire a slide up operation acting on the content display area <NUM> in <FIG>. In response to the slide up operation, the control terminal <NUM> may display the detailed image corresponding to the second sub-area (that is, the sub-area in the lower left corner of the first detail shooting area in <FIG>).

The user operation is not limited to the left sliding operation or the slide up operation described above. In specific implementations, a clicking operation or a long press operation on different areas of the second imaging result of a certain sub-area may be used to view the detailed image of the sub-area adjacent to the sub-area, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

Through the process of viewing the imaging result described above, the user can use the image obtained by the wide-angle lens as an index, locate the detailed image of any sub-area obtained by the zoom lens through a dotted frame, and directly switch to another detailed image from one detailed image, thereby reducing user operations and improving the efficiency of the user viewing the imaging results.

Next, in conjunction with the display interface of the control terminal <NUM> shown in <FIG>, a display method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. The display method can be applied to the control terminal <NUM>.

As shown in <FIG>, the display method includes the following processes.

S201, displaying the image obtained by the wide-angle lens in the display interface.

Specifically, reference can be made to <FIG> for the image obtained by the wide-angle lens being displayed in the display interface.

S202, obtaining a first user operation acting on the display interface.

Specifically, the first user operation may be a clicking operation on the ultra-resolution control <NUM>. Or, the first user operation may be an operation of the user manually selecting a certain area in the display interface.

S203, displaying the first detail imaging area in the display interface in response to the first user operation.

In some embodiments, the first detail imaging area may be used to display the imaging range of the zoom lens. For the first detail imaging area, reference can be made to the first detail imaging area <NUM> shown in <FIG>.

The embodiment of the present disclosure can be used to intuitively display the imaging range of the zoom lens in the display interface of the control terminal for the user to view, thereby enhancing the interest of the interaction between the user and the control terminal and the imaging device, and enhancing the user experience.

In some possible embodiments, in response to the first user operation described above, the control terminal <NUM> may also display the number of images and/or the imaging duration of the zoom lens on the display interface, such as the shooting information <NUM> shown in <FIG>.

The embodiment of the present disclosure can be used to intuitively display the imaging parameters of the zoom lens in the display interface of the control terminal for the user to view, such that the user is aware of the time required for capturing images or the number of images to be captured in advance, thereby improving the user experience.

In some embodiments, a third user operation acting on the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> may be obtained to adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens, such that the user can adjust/modify the zoom factor before zooming and capturing images. Of course, the method of adjusting the zoom factor of the zoom lens is not limited to adjusting the zoom factor of the zoom lens through the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>. In some specific implementations, the zoom factor of the zoom lens may also be adjusted by adjusting the scroll wheel on the control terminal <NUM>.

In some possible embodiments, in response to the third user operation described above, the imaging area division result of the first detail imaging area may be updated, and the shooting information of the zoom lens may be displayed on the display interface. The shooting information may include at least one of the number of images to be captured or the imaging duration. When the zoom factor changes, the imaging parameters of the wide-angle lens may also change accordingly, realizing the linkage of lens parameters. In this way, the user can directly understand the time required or the number of images to be captured for the currently set zoom imaging, thereby improving the user experience.

In some possible embodiments, the display interface shown in <FIG> may include a switching control <NUM>. After the process at S201, the display method may further include the following processes.

S204, obtaining a second user operation acting on the switching control.

S205, switching the image being displayed in the display interface to the image obtained by the zoom lens in response to the second user operation.

Specifically, the second user operation may be a clicking operation acting on the switching control <NUM>. It can be seen that the content currently being displayed on the display interface shown in <FIG> is an image (WIDE) obtained by a wide-angle lens. After the control terminal <NUM> obtains the clicking operation acting on the switching control <NUM>, in response to the clicking operation, the control terminal <NUM> may display an image (ZOOM) obtained by a zoom lens as shown in <FIG> in in the display area <NUM>, thereby realizing the control and display of imaging with the wide-angle lens and the zoom lens on the same display interface.

In some possible embodiments, the display interface shown in <FIG> may include a zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>. After the process at S205, the display method may further include the following processes.

S206, obtaining a third user operation acting on the zoom factor adjustment control.

S207, updating and displaying the image obtained by the zoom lens in response to the third user operation.

Specifically, the third user operation may be a user operation (such as an upward sliding operation or a downward sliding operation) that acts on the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> described in the embodiment of <FIG>.

In some embodiments, when the zoom factor changes, the parameters being displayed on the wide-angle lens screen may change accordingly. Changes in the parameters being displayed on the wide-angle lens screen may include a change of the dotted frame showing the image based on the calculation result of an algorithm, a change of the number of images to be captured for the ultra-resolution imaging, and a change of the imaging duration required. The changes described above can be used to remind the user that the change in the zoom factor of the zoom lens has affected the ultra-resolution imaging parameters.

The user operation is not limited to the upward sliding operation or the downward sliding down operation. In specific implementation, the third user operation may also be a left sliding operation, a right sliding operation, or a clicking operation, which is not limited in the present disclosure.

Specifically, the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM> may be used to adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens. The resolution of the image obtained by the zoom lens before the update and display may be determined by the zoom factor before adjustment, and the resolution of the image obtained by the zoom lens after the update and display may be determined by the adjusted zoom factor.

The method of adjusting the zoom factor of the zoom lens is not limited to adjusting the zoom factor of the zoom lens through the zoom factor adjustment control <NUM>. In some specific implementations, the zoom factor of the zoom lens may also be adjusted by adjusting the scroll wheel on the control terminal <NUM>.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the user can adjust the zoom factor of the zoom lens through the control terminal. When the zoom factor changes, the imaging parameters of the wide-angle lens may also change accordingly, realizing the linkage of lens parameters. The user can check whether the sharpness of the image obtained by the zoom lens meets the user's need in real time in the display interface of the control terminal, thereby enhancing the user's control over the zoom lens, enabling the user to increase the intuitive and clear control of the zoom lens, increasing the accuracy of the imaging results, and enhancing the user's experience in the imaging process.

In some possible embodiments, the display interface shown in <FIG> may also include an imaging control <NUM>. The first detail imaging area <NUM> includes one or more sub-areas, and the number of the sub-areas may be determined by the zoom factor of the zoom lens. The one or more sub-areas described above may be arranged in a preset order. After the process at S203, the display method may further include the following processes.

S208, obtaining a fourth user operation acting on the shooting control.

S209, marking the sub-areas in a preset order to indicate the current shooting progress in response to the fourth user operation.
