The title of the patent reads ‘interconnected multi-device linked shooting method and electronic equipment and storage media’. Looking at the description, it is stated that the devices connected to each other will combine the images that will be taken between them in order to obtain a three-dimensional image. This is in the plans to improve the overall photography experience.

According to the descriptions of the patent received by the company, the shooting process demands a connection. On top of that, it creates the shot and communicates its information between connected devices. The device also includes a panoramic mode where other shots are layered.
A minimum of two devices are required for the imaging system. It is currently unknown how much time the company spends on this system.
