Abstract

A method of capturing an image includes activating a first image sensor and capturing a sequence of images with a second image sensor. A determination is made as to whether the sequence of images captured by the second image sensor includes a shutter gesture. If a shutter gesture is included in the sequence of images captured by the second image sensor, the first image sensor captures a target image in response.
