Patent number: 9554053Abstract: A photographing apparatus including a sensor, a touchscreen, and a controller is disclosed. The sensor is configured to detect that a user approaches or comes within a predetermined proximity the photographing apparatus. The touchscreen is configured to display an image representing a state of the photographing apparatus and receive a gesture of the user. The controller is configured to enable a function of the touchscreen to detect the gesture based on a signal received from the sensor, and execute a function corresponding to the gesture.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2015Date of Patent: January 24, 2017Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Young-sik Kim, Gun-woo Nam
