  • Patent number: 11140327
    Abstract: An image-capturing device includes a camera module and a controller. The camera module captures an image of an object. The camera module includes a first camera and a second camera. The first camera has a first field of view (FOV) and captures an image in the first FOV, so as to produce a first image. The second camera is adjacent to the first camera and has a second FOV, in which the first FOV is wider than the second FOV. The second camera captures an image in the second FOV, so as to produce a second image. A displayer displays one of the first and second images. When a zoom ratio of the first image increases, the controller selects a display region in the first image according to an object distance, such that the display region is enlarged and then displayed on the displayer.

  • Publication number: 20150215513
    Abstract: A method for adjusting a contrast value of a video capturing end to a optimum contrast value is provided. Firstly, a first video image and a first contrast value of the first video image are gathered by a software part. A reference image is generated according to the first video image. The first video image is compared with the reference image to generate a first image evaluation value and an operation is performed to determine whether the first image evaluation value is greater than a first threshold. When the first image evaluation value is smaller than the first threshold, a second contrast value is generated according to the first contrast value and a dynamical contrast adjusting value. The second contrast value is sent to a firmware part by the software part to adjust a contrast value of the video capturing end according to the second contrast value.
