Abstract
The application discloses an image processing method and intelligent household electrical appliances, which are used for avoiding user privacy leakage when collecting images in the scenario of an intelligent refrigerator. The method provided by the application comprises the following steps: when a user triggers an image collection device of the intelligent household electrical appliances to start, a color image and a depth image of the same scene are determined; and whether the scene has a user privacy leakage situation is judged based on the color image and the depth image.
