"Apple has filed a patent to improve the quality of smartphone pictures with an innovative method. In a new patent uncovered by AppleInsider, the Cupertino company describes a new camera implementation that starts capturing images as soon as the user launches the camera app and then, when the user hits the shutter, automatically selects the best one.\nApple's patent for an \"Image capturing device having continuous image capture\" was filed in October 2012. The idea behind this system is to improve the quality of iPhone, iPod and iPad pictures by basically giving the phone the choice of the best picture available. The phone will choose from photos stored in a buffer and use a set of predetermined criteria to pick the best one. \nSEE ALSO: How Apple Stores Beat Disney Parks\n\nApple's system would solve, or at least improve, the so-called shaky camera syndrome. And in the patent filing, Apple describes another issue that this system is trying to solve. When taking a picture, the \"viewfinder\" on the display actually shows an image that is not full-resolution and when the user releases the shutter there is a delay so that the camera can switch from partial to full resolution. The result? What you see is not what you get. \nTo learn more about this new system, watch the video above. \nImage via iStockphoto, krystiannawrocki\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
