Abstract

A method captures images of objects using an image capturing apparatus. The method obtains x-coordinate values, y-coordinate values, and z-coordinate values of the accelerations of a camera device sensed by a gravity sensor in a default time interval, calculates three-dimensional coordinate differences according to the obtained x-coordinate, y-coordinate, and z-coordinate values, and determines whether the three-dimensional coordinate differences are less than corresponding predefined thresholds. If at least one coordinate difference is not less than a corresponding predefined threshold, the method delays a period of time to obtain the x-coordinate, y-coordinate, and the z-coordinate values in a next default time interval. If all the three-dimensional coordinate differences are less than the corresponding predefined thresholds, the method controls the camera device to capture images of the subject object.
