Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for focusing, applied in image processing field, enabling a terminal in an automatic focusing process not to suspend automatic focus function. The method includes: determining an imaging mode switched from a first picture taking device in a first imaging mode to the first picture taking device or a second picture taking device in a second imaging mode, estimating a second position of the target object in the second imaging mode according to a first position of a target object in the first imaging mode and a principle of epipolar geometry, and searching for the target object in the second imaging mode according to the estimated second position of the target object in the second imaging mode.

Claim (Index 5):
The method according to  claim 4 , wherein the searching for the target object on the epipolar line further comprises, when the second searching point does not exist:\n determining a fifth searching point where the first straight line intersects the epipolar line, determining a sixth searching point and a seventh searching point where the epipolar line intersects a boundary of the field of view in the second imaging mode, and searching for the target object on the epipolar line between the fifth searching point and the sixth searching point or searching for the target object on the epipolar line between the fifth searching point and the seventh searching point.
