Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, this method has certain limitations. At first, this method must rely on self-use, unique dictionary database and its corresponding sound library, phonetic symbol pronunciation mouth shape basic library, but these databases will not be used on ordinary mobile communication devices; Secondly, the principle of this method to obtain mouth shapes is based on phonetic symbols

Embodiment 1

[0025] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 It is a flow chart of a method 100 for converting text into animation according to a specific embodiment. The text conversion animation method 100 can convert text into a corresponding animation. The text conversion animation method 100 includes the following steps: text input step 110 , voice synthesis step 120 , video synthesis step 130 and animation synthesis step 140 .

[0026] The user first inputs text or accepts text sent by others, and then undergoes speech synthesis (Text-To-Speech, TTS) on these input text or text sent by others through speech synthesis step 120, and obtains the text corresponding to the text Audio files, which convert text information into audible audio information. At present, speech synthesis technology is relatively mature, and mature existing commercial modules, such as speech synthesis modules provided by companies such as Microsoft and IBM, can be directly adopted. Generally speaking, the speech sy...

Embodiment 2

[0040] According to the text-to-animation method of the second embodiment of the present invention, except that the working principle of the video synthesis step 130 is different from that of the embodiment, the implementation principles of the other steps are basically the same, so the rest of the steps will not be introduced again. The analysis method in the pinyin analysis step 132 in the second embodiment is different from that in the first embodiment, and only vowels and non-vowels are distinguished in the phonetic analysis step 132 . Specifically: Hanyu Pinyin is composed of initials and finals, and finals are mainly composed of vowels. Therefore, the combination of vowels can approximate the pronunciation of all finals. There are 5 vowels in Chinese Pinyin, which are "a", "e", "i", "o", and "u". Therefore, it is only necessary to pre-create the static pictures of the mouth shapes corresponding to these 5 vowels. The rest of the non-vowels also respectively establish the...

Embodiment 3

[0045] According to the text-to-animation method according to the third embodiment of the present invention, except that the working principle of the video synthesis step 130 is different from that of the embodiment, the implementation principles of the other steps are basically the same, so the other steps will not be introduced again. Similarly, the analysis method in the pinyin analysis step 132 in the third embodiment is different from that in the first and second embodiments. Specifically: Hanyu Pinyin is composed of initials and finals. According to different pronunciation methods, the 21 initials can be divided into 8 categories. The pronunciation mechanism of the same type of initial consonants is similar. When considering the influence of the synergistic pronunciation of the front and back syllables, the syllables with the same type of initial consonants have similar effects on the front syllables. These 8 categories are: stop sounds are aspirated: "b", "d", "g", stop...

Abstract

A method for converting text into animation and device thereof is capable of converting text into corresponding animation, comprising steps of text inputting; speech synthesizing, synthesizing an input text in order to obtain corresponding audio files; video synthesizing, including steps of spelling analyzing and mouth shape synthesizing, which are doing phonetic analysis for the text to obtain corresponding spellings for the text, then extracting images corresponding to the spelling from a preset data base of mouth shape of spelling, and finally synthesizing the images into a video files; animation synthesizing, synthesizing the audio file and video file into images. The device for converting text into animation comprises a tent inputting module, a speech synthesizing module, a video synthesizing module, and an animation synthesizing module. The text input by users are processed by the modules, thereby the animation in accordance with text is obtained, achieving the goal of conversion of text to animation.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and device for character conversion animation, and in particular to a method and device for character conversion animation combined with mobile communication technology and multimedia technology. Background technique [0002] Today, with the rapid development of mobile communication technology and multimedia information technology, audio and video applications are becoming more and more closely related to people's work and life, and they are also playing an increasingly important role in commercial applications. [0003] Mobile communication has experienced the first generation of analog network mobile communication technology (1G) and the second generation of digital network mobile communication technology (2G), and is about to usher in the third generation of mobile communication technology (3G). Compared with the second-generation mobile communication technology currently in use, the third-generation mobile ...
