  • ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IMAGE DISPLAY
    Publication number: 20150015741
    Abstract: An electronic device and a method for controlling photographic capture. A first image is acquired by a first camera having a first viewing angle. A second image is acquired by a second camera having a second viewing angle, the second viewing angle being different from the first viewing angle. The first image is overlaid with at least one object from the second image, or an icon corresponding to the object. The first camera and the second camera are mounted to a same surface, or to disparate surfaces relative to one another. Photographic capture or control is triggered in response to movement of the object.

    Publication number: 20150019718
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods for service discovery in a wireless personal area communication network. A method for service discovery, performed in a terminal, the method comprises performing a passive scan for searching a specific service based on whether to receive a frame including a specific service identifier; and, when it fails to search the specific service, performing an active scan which broadcasts a service discovery request command frame for searching the specific service. Thus, service discovery may be efficiently performed by reducing the operation complexity of the terminal and minimizing the power consumption of the terminal needed for service discovery, without support of a upper layer.
