  • Patent number: 9071735
    Abstract: Name management and group recovery methods and systems for burst shot are provided. In name management, a burst shot is performed to continuously capture a group of images in sequence. Each of the images in the group is named with a same prefix, and a respective infix, wherein the infixes of the respective images are progressively increased along the period of the burst shot. One of the images within the group is selected as a cover image of the group, and a specific postfix is added to the name of the selected image. In group recovery, if a specific image having a name comprising the specific postfix is in the electronic device, images having a name comprising at least one predefined text in an infix corresponding to the specific image are retrieved and grouped, and the burst bit of each grouped image is enabled.
