Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The invention in field of mobile phone supporting handheld devices (smartphones) captures the panoramic scene in a convenient way by rotating the mobile phone with smaller or larger than 360° in comparison with rotational direction and speed as desired by fingers.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Demand of recording, viewing and sending images and movies with a mobile phone (smartphone) are rising. Especially, social networks such as Facebook, YouTube, etc. begin to support transforming ordinary images and movies into panoramic ones as the spectators can rotate to view the whole panoramic scene.

Currently recording is done by holding the mobile phone and turning around or turn the hand holding the mobile phone to record images around the user with an expensive devices which are composed of multiple cameras mounted on a round ring or on a spherical surface.

In order to capture the panorama recorded with a 360° arc around a person holding a video recorder or a mobile phone (hereinafter referred to as a mobile phone, implicitly known as a smartphone, or automatic smart video recorder) by turning with an angle of 360 degrees, there is lots of inconvenience because it is impossible to record the image of a mobile phone user if the mobile phone's camera is facing out of the user's body. On the contrary, the mobile phone will obscure most of the scene that needs to be recorded by the user's body when the mobile phone's camera is aimed at the user's body.

Turning a mobile phone manually will be difficult to keep at a slow and steady speed, and it is consequently difficult to avoid undulation when turning, therefore the recorded images or video will have low quality: images of the video will easily be blur or undulated and be at an inconsistent speed, and it is easy for mobile phones to fall.

Recording with specialized devices equipped with cameras around a circular arc or cameras mounted around a spherical surface to capture a panoramic image of a 360 arc requires two devices to separately record 360° arc and view a single image of a 360° arc, thus dramatically increase the cost of shopping for 360 video recording devices for mobile phone users. In addition the image is recorded and reassembled into a 360° arc by different cameras may experience problems with poor communication at the edges of the images of different cameras.

The invention concerning a handheld device or instrument that supports a video recorder (camera) for the purpose of self-recording as the U.S. Pat. No. 4,530,580 by Hiroshi Ueda, Yujiro Mima, issued on Jul. 23, 1985 about an expandable sight instrument for the camera. The device is rod-shaped, retractable like a fishing rod. It can be expended with one end, a handle held with the user's hand, and there is a button used to control the recording on the handle. This button is also connected by a wire to the jack on the recorder. On the other end of the rod there is a bar of which length is approximately equal to the height of the recorder and connected perpendicularly to the rod. On the long bar there is a bolt that is perpendicular to the long rod and this bolt is used to tighten a holed recorder with a female thread to tighten the bolts into the recorder feet. When used, the camcorder is screwed into the bolt so that the lens face towards the user and the user can press the button on the handle to record. The camera position can change its angle in comparison with the stick by turning the camcorder against the long bar so that the user changes the angle between the stick and the user's body while the lens is still facing the user. This invention is one of the first inventions of a camera-supported handheld device so that the user can self-capture. However this invention does not have the function of supporting a video recorder in order to capture panoramic image around by finger-controlled device that the user must turn about or turn the handle of it to capture.

So far there is no mobile phone rotary hand-held device for finger-controlled 360° recording. It is therefore necessary for the mobile phone user to have a portable recorder at hand so that he can capture the surrounding panoramic view conveniently and can deliver high quality images and movies that can be used to create 360° ones for viewers.

Following description is of a finger-controlled 360° mobile phone rotary hand-held device that will meet those needs for mobile phone users or mobile video recorders. Portable recording allows mobile phone record in a circular arc, especially with a circular arc of over 180°, with slow mobile phone rotation, fairly uniform rotational speed, as well as less undulation and allows recording direction according to user's wishes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The invention is a handheld device for recording with a camera or portable recorder and its most common application is to support camera-equipped mobile phones and those of which monitors can be turned a 360° arc with a finger (hereinafter referred to as “device”), hereinafter referred to as a finger-controlled 360° mobile phone turning device. On using finger-controlled 360° mobile phone turning device, the camera of the mobile phone will record an arc of its own accord with a smooth finger-controlled rotational motion, to and fro and fast or slow as the user's desire is. In addition, the recording arc may have small angle or up to 360° or rotate repeatedly.

Images recorded by a mobile phone with a finger-controlled 360° rotary device, along with 360° image or video processing software for 360° image processing, of which advantage is that film or video will have better consistency than those connected by individual cameras mounted on the perimeter of a circular device or on the surface of the spherical device.

The device of the invention has the feature of rotating the mobile phone so that the camera of the device can record in a circular arc with the control of the rotational speed, rotation, the desired arc length with the fingers and hands holding the mobile phone.

The device of the invention has a number of different forms, however, the rotational control of the cell phone is based on the operation of the finger. These types of device have different manipulations to control the rotation of the mobile phone at will, namely as follows.
