Abstract

A communication terminal provides a silhouette function on a video screen for a video call and a method thereof. The communication terminal may include a video input unit to receive an input of a video signal for a video call from a camera, a body recognition unit to recognize a body image of a user captured through the camera in the video signal, a silhouette processing unit to silhouette an area corresponding to the body image in the video signal, and a video output unit to output the video signal including the silhouetted body image to at least one opposite party communication terminal.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to a communication terminal and a method for protecting the appearance of the user by maintaining a user's surrounding image during a video call to maintain a sense of presence. technical background [0002] Due to the development of mobile communication technology and terminal manufacturing technology, recent mobile communication terminals not only provide purely mobile audio calls, but also provide various additional functions. For example, it provides a variety of additional functions such as exchanging photos with each other, downloading videos from servers, or playing online games using wireless Internet. In particular, since mobile communication terminals equipped with high-performance cameras are popularized, the function of video calling is attracting attention. In addition, due to the recent commercialization of technologies such as High Speed ​​Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) that can transmit data ...
