Abstract

An electronic device comprises a display apparatus, a photographing apparatus, and a lifting apparatus. The photographing apparatus receives, through the first channel or a second channel, a first stream on instruction triggered by a first application. The second channel is a channel between the display apparatus and the photographing apparatus, and the first stream on instruction is used to instruct the photographing apparatus to collect an image and output the collected image to the first application. The photographing apparatus reports a first stream on state to a proxy module in the display apparatus through the first channel. The proxy module in the display apparatus controls, based on the first stream on state, the lifting apparatus to lift the photographing apparatus. The photographing apparatus after being lifted starts to collect an image, and outputs the collected image to the first application through the second channel.
