Abstract:
An image processing method and apparatus, and an electronic device are provided. The image sensor is controlled to output the compositing image. The merged image and the color-block image can be output respectively under different scenes requiring different imaging effect. Then the preset target region is identified in the merged image. Finally, the processed merged image (i.e. the merged true-color image) corresponding to the preset target region is composited with the processed color-block image (i.e. the simulation true-color image). Therefore, the signal-to-noise ratio, the resolution and distinguishability are improved. The placed location in the simulation true-color image can be manually adjusted, thereby enhancing user experience.

Claim (Index 10):
A control apparatus, applied for controlling an electronic device, wherein the electronic device comprises an imaging apparatus and a touch screen, wherein the imaging apparatus comprises an image sensor, the image sensor comprises an array of photosensitive pixel units and an array of filter units arranged on the array of photosensitive pixel units, each filter unit corresponds to one photosensitive pixel unit, and each photosensitive pixel unit comprises a plurality of photosensitive pixels; the control apparatus comprises:\n a control module, configured to control the image sensor to output a merged image and to rotate the imaging apparatus to output a color-block image, wherein, the merged image comprises an array of merged pixels, the photosensitive pixels in a same photosensitive pixel unit are collectively output as one merged pixel, the color-block image comprises image pixel units arranged in a preset array, each image pixel unit comprises a plurality of original pixels, and each photosensitive pixel corresponds to one original pixel; a first converting module, configured to convert the color-block image into a simulation image, wherein, the simulation image comprises simulation pixels arranged in an array, the simulation pixels comprise a current pixel, the plurality of original pixels comprise an association pixel located at a position corresponding to a position of the current pixel, and the first converting module comprises:\n a first determining unit, configured to determine whether a color of the current pixel is identical to that of the association pixel; \n a first calculating unit, configured to, when the color of the current pixel is identical to that of the association pixel, determine a pixel value of the association pixel as a pixel value of the current pixel; and \n a second calculating unit, configured to, when the color of the current pixel is different from that of the association pixel, calculate the pixel value of the current pixel according to a pixel value of an association pixel unit through a first interpolation algorithm, wherein the image pixel unit comprises the association pixel unit, and the association pixel unit has a same color as the current pixel and is adjacent to the association pixel;; \n an identifying module, configured to identify a portrait region according to the merged image; a second converting module, configured to convert the portrait region into a merged true-color image; a third converting module, configured to convert the simulation image into a simulation true-color image; and a compositing module, configured to composite the merged true-color image into the simulation true-color image.
