Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, terminal and storage medium for displaying virtual images. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of terminal technology, electronic pets, as virtual pet avatars, are increasingly popular among users. Electronic pets allow users to experience the joys of pet ownership without having to deal with the troubles or disputes associated with owning a real pet, such as the noise problems caused by cats and dogs barking, or the environmental mess caused by shedding and feces.

[0003] Currently, virtual pets are typically displayed on the user's desktop, allowing users to interact with them by clicking on their virtual avatar. However, this approach only responds to simple clicks, with the terminal displaying the corresponding animation. The virtual avatar's expressiveness is poor, resulting in a lack of user experience. Therefore, enhancing the expressiveness of virtual avatars is a pressing technical challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0067] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for displaying a virtual avatar according to an embodiment of this application. The method is executed by a terminal; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 The method includes:

[0068] 201. Display the first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop, and the first desktop wallpaper displays the first virtual avatar.

[0069] In this embodiment, a first desktop wallpaper is displayed on the terminal's virtual desktop, and the first desktop wallpaper displays a first virtual avatar. The first virtual avatar can be any virtual avatar, such as a cat, dog, or bird. Users can choose the corresponding virtual avatar according to their preferences. The first desktop wallpaper can display a static first virtual avatar or a dynamic first virtual avatar; this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. For example, when the terminal first displays the first desktop wallpaper, the first virtual avatar displayed by the first desktop wallpaper can perform corresponding actions, such as waving a welcome gesture. When the first desktop wallpaper is not displayed for the first time, if no user trigger operation on the first virtual avatar is detected, the first virtual avatar remains static, that is, the first desktop wallpaper displays a static first virtual avatar.

[0070] 202. In response to the opening operation of the target application, display the application interface of the target application. The target application can be any application in the terminal, and the application interface displays the application information of the target application.

[0071] In this embodiment, the target application can be any application on the terminal, such as an audio application, video application, camera application, image application, etc. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. Optionally, a shortcut to the target application is displayed on the virtual desktop. By triggering this shortcut, the terminal can open the target application and display its application interface. This application interface displays the application information of the target application. For example, if the target application is a gallery application, the application information includes the type of gallery and the number of multimedia resources in each gallery.

[0072] 203. In response to the return to desktop operation, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to the second desktop wallpaper. The second desktop wallpaper displays the first animation of the first virtual avatar. The first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar associated with the target application.

[0073] In this embodiment, after the target application is launched, the terminal can acquire a first animation of the first virtual avatar, which displays actions associated with the first virtual avatar and the target application. For example, if the target application is a music application, the first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar wearing headphones and listening to music. If the target application is a camera application, the first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar taking a picture with its back to the screen. Therefore, when the user returns to the virtual desktop from the application interface of the target application, the terminal can display the virtual desktop and switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a second desktop wallpaper used to display the first animation of the first virtual avatar.

[0074] This application provides a method for displaying a virtual avatar. When an operation to open a target application is detected, the terminal can display the application interface of the target application. Furthermore, when an operation to return to the desktop from the application interface is detected, the terminal switches the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a second desktop wallpaper displaying a first interactive animation of the first virtual avatar. This allows the first virtual avatar to display actions associated with the target application based on the user's current target application, thereby improving the relevance between the virtual avatar and the target application, enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar, and improving the user experience.

[0075] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of another method for displaying a virtual avatar provided in an embodiment of this application. This method is executed by a terminal; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 The method includes:

[0076] 301. Display the first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop, and the first desktop wallpaper displays the first virtual avatar.

[0077] In this embodiment, a first desktop wallpaper is displayed on the terminal's virtual desktop, and the first desktop wallpaper displays a first virtual avatar. The first virtual avatar can be any virtual avatar, such as a cat, dog, or bird. Users can choose the corresponding virtual avatar according to their preferences. The first desktop wallpaper can display a static first virtual avatar or a dynamic first virtual avatar; this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. For example, when the terminal first displays the first desktop wallpaper, the first virtual avatar displayed by the first desktop wallpaper can perform corresponding actions, such as waving a welcome gesture. When the first desktop wallpaper is not displayed for the first time, if no user trigger operation on the first virtual avatar is detected, the first virtual avatar remains static, that is, the first desktop wallpaper displays a static first virtual avatar.

[0078] For example, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of a first desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 4As shown, the first virtual image displayed on the first desktop wallpaper is a virtual bird image, and at this time the first virtual image is in a static state.

[0079] It should be noted that the terminal can switch the first desktop wallpaper to other desktop wallpapers through multiple methods. For details of Method 1, please refer to steps 302-304 below; for details of Method 2, please refer to steps 305-306 below; for details of Method 3, please refer to steps 307-308 below; and for details of Method 4, please refer to steps 309-311 below.

[0080] 302. In response to the opening operation of the target application, display the application interface of the target application. The target application can be any application in the terminal, and the application interface displays the application information of the target application.

[0081] In this embodiment, the target application can be any application on the terminal, such as an audio application, video application, camera application, image application, etc. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. Optionally, a shortcut to the target application is displayed on the virtual desktop. By triggering this shortcut, the terminal can open the target application and display its application interface. This application interface displays the application information of the target application. For example, if the target application is a gallery application, the application information includes the type of gallery and the number of multimedia resources in each gallery.

[0082] 303. In response to the return to desktop operation, based on the application type of the target application, determine the first animation of the first virtual avatar. The first animation displays an action that is associated with the first virtual avatar and the application type.

[0083] In this embodiment, when the terminal responds to a return-to-desktop operation and returns to the virtual desktop from the application interface of the target application, the terminal can determine a first animation of the first virtual avatar based on the application type of the target application. This first animation displays actions of the first virtual avatar associated with the application type. For example, for a music application, the first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar wearing headphones and listening to music. For a video application, the first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar facing the computer screen and watching a video. For a camera application, the first animation displays the action of the first virtual avatar with its back to the screen taking a picture.

[0084] 304. In response to the end of the return to desktop operation, the virtual desktop is displayed, and the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper is switched to the second desktop wallpaper. The second desktop wallpaper displays the first animation.

[0085] In this embodiment, when the return to desktop operation ends, the terminal can display a virtual desktop and switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a second desktop wallpaper used to display the first animation.

[0086] For example, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of a second desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 5 As shown, the first virtual avatar is a bird. When the target application is a communication application, upon returning to the virtual desktop from the application's interface, the terminal can display a second desktop wallpaper 501. The first animation displayed on the second desktop wallpaper 501 is the first virtual avatar holding a phone and making a call. When the target application is a music or video application, upon returning to the virtual desktop from the application's interface, the terminal can display a second desktop wallpaper 502. The first animation displayed on the second desktop wallpaper 502 is the first virtual avatar wearing headphones and listening to music or watching videos. When the target application is a photo album or image application, upon returning to the virtual desktop from the application's interface, the terminal can display a second desktop wallpaper 503. The first animation displayed on the second desktop wallpaper 503 is the first virtual avatar facing away from the screen and taking a picture.

[0087] In some embodiments, after returning to the virtual desktop, the terminal can display the corresponding desktop wallpaper based on the application status of the target application. Accordingly, in response to the end of the return-to-desktop operation, the application status of the target application is determined. The application status includes a closed state and a background running state. The closed state indicates that the application process of the target application is closed, and the background running state indicates that the application process of the target application is running in the background. When the application status is closed, in response to the display duration of the second desktop wallpaper exceeding a duration threshold, the second desktop wallpaper is switched to the first desktop wallpaper. When the application status is in the background running state, the second desktop wallpaper is continuously displayed on the virtual desktop. After the terminal returns to the virtual desktop from the application interface, the target application can be in a closed state or a background running state. Since the second desktop wallpaper is displayed on the virtual desktop at this time, the first animation displayed by the second desktop wallpaper shows the action of the first virtual image associated with the target application. Therefore, when the application status of the target application is closed, it indicates that the user has ended using the target application. Therefore, when the display duration of the second desktop wallpaper exceeds the duration threshold, the terminal can switch the second desktop wallpaper to the first desktop wallpaper. When the application status of the target application is in the background running state, it indicates that the user has not yet ended using the target application. Therefore, the terminal can continuously display the second desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop. After the target application is closed, the terminal does not immediately stop displaying the second desktop wallpaper; instead, it switches to displaying the first desktop wallpaper only after the second wallpaper has been displayed for a short time. This prevents users from missing the actions associated with the previously used target application displayed by the first virtual avatar when returning to the desktop, enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improving the user experience.

[0088] 305. In response to detecting an update in the system state of the terminal, based on the updated system state, determine a second animation for the first virtual avatar, wherein the second animation displays actions of the first virtual avatar that are associated with the system state.

[0089] In this embodiment, when the terminal detects a system state update, the terminal can determine a second animation displaying actions of the first virtual avatar associated with that system state, based on the updated system state. The terminal's system state includes low battery, charging, and restarting. When the updated system state is low battery, the second animation displays the first virtual avatar lying down tiredly. When the updated system state is charging, the second animation displays the first virtual avatar exercising. When the updated system state is restarting, the second animation displays the first virtual avatar standing and waving.

[0090] 306. Switch the first desktop wallpaper to the third desktop wallpaper, and the third desktop wallpaper displays the second animation.

[0091] In this embodiment, after obtaining the second animation of the first virtual avatar, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop to a third desktop wallpaper for displaying the second animation. When the terminal's system state changes, displaying the third desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop allows the user to see the actions of the first virtual avatar related to the system state, thereby enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improving the user experience.

[0092] For example, Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of a third desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the first virtual avatar is a bird. The updated system status is "Terminal is charging," and the terminal displays a third desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop. The second animation displayed on the third desktop wallpaper shows the first virtual avatar exercising.

[0093] 307. In response to detecting an update in weather information, based on the updated weather information, determine a third animation for the first virtual avatar, wherein the weather information is used to indicate the weather conditions associated with the terminal's geographical location, and the third animation displays actions of the first virtual avatar associated with the weather information.

[0094] In this embodiment, when the terminal detects an update in weather information, the terminal can determine a third animation that displays an action of the first virtual avatar associated with that weather information, based on the updated weather information. The terminal's weather information indicates the weather conditions associated with the terminal's geographical location, such as sunny, rainy, snowy, windy, or dusty. For example, if the updated weather information indicates rain, the third animation displays the first virtual avatar holding an umbrella or wiping windows. If the updated weather information indicates snow, the third animation displays the first virtual avatar building a snowman.

[0095] 308. Switch the first desktop wallpaper to the fourth desktop wallpaper. The fourth desktop wallpaper displays the third animation.

[0096] In this embodiment, after obtaining the third animation of the first virtual avatar, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop to a fourth desktop wallpaper for displaying the third animation. When the weather information changes, by displaying the fourth desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop, the user can see the actions of the first virtual avatar related to the weather information, thereby enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improving the user experience.

[0097] For example, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a fourth desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 7 As shown, the first virtual avatar is a bird. The updated weather information indicates it is raining, and the terminal displays either the fourth desktop wallpaper 701 or 702 on the virtual desktop. The third animation displayed on the fourth desktop wallpaper shows the first virtual avatar holding an umbrella or wiping windows.

[0098] 309. When the first virtual image is stationary, determine the real-time distance between the user's eyes and the terminal screen based on the facial key points of the user on the terminal.

[0099] In this embodiment, when the first virtual image displayed on the first desktop wallpaper is stationary, the terminal can activate its front-facing camera to detect the user. The front-facing camera is a motion-sensing camera capable of detecting and analyzing the user's posture and movement. The user is the user of the terminal. While the user is viewing the terminal screen, the front-facing camera can capture the user's facial information in real time to determine multiple facial key points. These key points include eyebrows, eyes, pupils, nose, and mouth. Based on these facial key points, the terminal can determine the user's eye key points, and thus determine the distance between the user's eyes and the screen. This distance is real-time and changes as the user moves or the screen moves.

[0100] 310. When the real-time distance is not less than the first distance and not greater than the second distance, in response to the decrease in real-time distance, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to the fifth desktop wallpaper, the fifth desktop wallpaper displays the fourth animation of the first virtual image, and the fourth animation displays the action of the first virtual image approaching the screen.

[0101] In this embodiment, the first distance is the closest distance at which the front-facing camera can detect the user, and the second distance is the farthest distance at which the front-facing camera can detect the user. The first distance can be 15 cm, and the second distance can be 60 cm. When the real-time distance between the user's eyes and the screen is not less than the first distance and not greater than the second distance, it indicates that the front-facing camera can detect the user's face and determine the real-time distance between the eyes and the screen based on the collected facial information. Therefore, when a decrease in real-time distance is detected, it indicates that the user's eyes are approaching the screen, and the terminal can acquire a fourth animation of the first virtual avatar, which shows the first virtual avatar approaching the screen. Correspondingly, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a fifth desktop wallpaper displaying the fourth animation. When the terminal detects that the user's eyes are approaching the screen, by displaying the fifth desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop, the user can see the first virtual avatar also approaching the screen while approaching it. Interaction between the user and the virtual avatar can be achieved without the user clicking on the first virtual avatar, enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improving the user experience.

[0102] In some embodiments, the terminal switches the desktop wallpaper only when the decrease in real-time distance exceeds a certain distance. Accordingly, in response to the decrease in real-time distance, the difference between the initial distance and the real-time distance between the eye and the screen is determined as the decrease in real-time distance; if the decrease is greater than a third distance and the real-time distance is not less than a first distance, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to a fifth desktop wallpaper. Here, the initial distance is the initial distance between the user's eye and the terminal's screen before any change. The third distance is the minimum distance required to trigger the switch of desktop wallpaper display, and can be 5cm. Therefore, if the difference between the initial distance and the current real-time distance is greater than the third distance and the current real-time distance is not less than the first distance, it indicates that the decrease in real-time distance is greater than the third distance and the decreased real-time distance is not less than the closest distance that the front-facing camera can detect for the user. Therefore, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop to a fifth desktop wallpaper displaying a fourth animation.

[0103] 311. In response to the increase in real-time distance, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to the sixth desktop wallpaper. The sixth desktop wallpaper displays the fifth animation of the first virtual image, and the fifth animation displays the action of the first virtual image moving away from the screen.

[0104] In this embodiment, when an increase in real-time distance is detected, indicating that the user's eyes are moving away from the screen, the terminal can acquire a fifth animation of the first virtual avatar, which shows the first virtual avatar moving away from the screen. Correspondingly, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a sixth desktop wallpaper displaying the fifth animation. When the terminal detects that the user's eyes are moving away from the screen, by displaying the sixth desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop, the user can see the first virtual avatar also moving away from the screen while simultaneously moving away from it. This allows for interaction between the user and the virtual avatar without the user needing to click on the first virtual avatar, enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improving the user experience.

[0105] In some embodiments, the terminal switches the desktop wallpaper only when the increase in real-time distance exceeds a certain distance. In response to the increase in real-time distance, the difference between the real-time distance and the initial distance between the user's eyes and the screen is determined as the increase in real-time distance. If the increase is greater than a third distance and the real-time distance is not greater than a second distance, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to a sixth desktop wallpaper. The initial distance is the initial distance between the user's eyes and the terminal's screen before any change. The third distance is the minimum distance required to trigger the switch in desktop wallpaper display, and can be 5cm. Therefore, if the difference between the initial distance and the current real-time distance is greater than the third distance and the current real-time distance is not greater than the second distance, it indicates that the increase in real-time distance is greater than the third distance and the increased real-time distance is not greater than the furthest distance that the front-facing camera can detect. Therefore, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a sixth desktop wallpaper displaying a fifth animation.

[0106] In some embodiments, the terminal can switch between different desktop wallpapers based on the state of the virtual avatar when it is triggered. Accordingly, in response to a triggering operation on the first virtual avatar, the state of the first virtual avatar is determined; if the first virtual avatar is in a static state, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to a seventh desktop wallpaper, which displays a sixth animation of the first virtual avatar, showing an action of the first virtual avatar associated with the terminal's real-time; if the first virtual avatar is not in a static state, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to an eighth desktop wallpaper, which displays a seventh animation of the first virtual avatar, showing an action associated with the current action of the first virtual avatar. Wherein, if the first virtual avatar displayed on the first desktop wallpaper is in a static state, it indicates that the first virtual object remains static and is not displaying any action. At this time, the terminal can determine the sixth animation of the first virtual avatar based on the terminal's real-time, which displays an action of the first virtual avatar associated with the real-time. Accordingly, in response to the user's triggering operation on the static first virtual avatar, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper on the virtual desktop to the seventh desktop wallpaper displaying the sixth animation.

[0107] Conversely, when the first virtual avatar displayed on the first desktop wallpaper is not static, it indicates that the first virtual object is displaying an action. At this time, the terminal can acquire the seventh animation of the first virtual avatar, which displays an action associated with the currently displayed action of the first virtual avatar. Accordingly, in response to the user's trigger operation on the static first virtual avatar, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to an eighth desktop wallpaper displaying the seventh animation. When the user clicks on the first virtual avatar, the terminal can enhance the expressiveness of the virtual avatar and improve the user's interactive experience with the virtual avatar by having the first virtual avatar display an action associated with the real-time context when the first virtual avatar is static. Alternatively, it can enhance the expressiveness of the virtual avatar by having the first virtual avatar display other actions associated with the currently displayed action while it is displaying an action, thereby improving the efficiency of human-computer interaction.

[0108] For example, Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of a seventh desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 8 As shown, the first virtual avatar is a bird. From 7:30 AM to 11:00 AM, the sixth animation displayed in the seventh desktop wallpaper 801 shows the first virtual avatar happily hopping around. From 11:00 AM to 1:30 PM or from 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM, the sixth animation displayed in the seventh desktop wallpaper 802 shows the first virtual avatar eating. From 1:30 PM to 2:30 PM or from 10:00 PM to 7:30 AM the next day, the sixth animation displayed in the seventh desktop wallpaper 803 shows the first virtual avatar sleeping. From 2:30 PM to 5:30 PM, the sixth animation displayed in the seventh desktop wallpaper 804 shows the first virtual avatar reading a book. From 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM, the sixth animation displayed in the seventh desktop wallpaper 805 shows the first virtual avatar playing with toys.

[0109] For example, Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of an eighth desktop wallpaper provided in an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 9 As shown, the first virtual avatar is a bird. The current action displayed by the first virtual avatar is reading a book. Clicking on the first virtual avatar in the first desktop wallpaper 901 will switch the display of the first desktop wallpaper 901 to the eighth desktop wallpaper 902. The eighth desktop wallpaper 902 displays actions related to the first virtual avatar's reading action, namely, the first virtual avatar playing with toys.

[0110] In some embodiments, the terminal can trigger a special action of the virtual avatar by continuously clicking on it. Accordingly, in response to continuous clicking on the first virtual avatar, if the number of consecutive clicks exceeds a threshold, an eighth animation of the first virtual avatar is determined based on the terminal's real-time. This eighth animation displays an action of the first virtual avatar associated with the real-time. Upon completion of the continuous clicking operation, the first desktop wallpaper is switched to a ninth desktop wallpaper, which displays the eighth animation. Specifically, when the user continuously clicks on the first virtual avatar displayed on the first desktop wallpaper, the terminal can determine whether it is day or night based on the terminal's current time if the number of consecutive clicks exceeds the threshold, and then obtain the eighth animation associated with day or night. During the day, continuous clicking on the first virtual avatar displays the first virtual avatar in an excited state, with virtual fireworks blooming around it. At night, continuous clicking on the first virtual avatar displays the first virtual avatar in an angry state, with the first virtual avatar angrily leaving the screen. After the continuous clicking operation ends, the terminal can switch the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to the ninth desktop wallpaper displaying the eighth animation. When a user clicks on the first virtual avatar repeatedly, the avatar can display special actions related to real-time events, which can enhance the avatar's expressiveness and improve the user's interactive experience with the avatar.

[0111] In some embodiments, the terminal, in addition to displaying a first virtual avatar, can also display the interaction between the first virtual avatar and other virtual avatars. Accordingly, if the total number of clicks on the first virtual avatar within a time threshold exceeds a certain threshold, a second virtual avatar is determined from the set of virtual avatars. The set of virtual avatars includes multiple distinct virtual avatars, and the second virtual avatar is any virtual avatar in the set other than the first virtual avatar. The first desktop wallpaper is switched to a tenth desktop wallpaper, which displays a ninth interactive animation. The ninth interactive animation displays the actions of the first and second virtual avatars interacting. The fact that the total number of clicks on the first virtual avatar within the time threshold exceeds the threshold indicates a high frequency of user interaction with the first virtual avatar within that time threshold. This triggers a "cross-platform mechanism," meaning the terminal can select another virtual avatar from the set, allowing the second virtual avatar to interact with the first virtual avatar. Accordingly, the terminal switches the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to the tenth desktop wallpaper displaying the ninth animation. The ninth animation displays the actions of the first and second virtual avatars interacting. When the total number of times a user clicks on the first virtual avatar exceeds a threshold within a certain period, displaying the actions of the first virtual avatar interacting with other virtual avatars can enhance the expressiveness of the virtual avatars and improve the user's interactive experience with them.

[0112] In some implementations, when the terminal displays an animation of the first virtual avatar on the desktop wallpaper, the terminal also plays audio data associated with the actions of the first virtual avatar. For example, when displaying the action of the first virtual avatar holding an umbrella, the sound of rain can be played. When displaying the action of the first virtual avatar wearing headphones and listening to music, the sound of humming music can be played.

[0113] In some implementations, the terminal can vibrate simultaneously when the user clicks on the first virtual avatar.

[0114] It should be noted that the animation of the first virtual character displayed on the desktop wallpaper in this application can be an animation composed of multiple static images played in succession; it can also be a two-dimensional animation generated by photographing the first virtual character in three-dimensional space, in which case the terminal plays the two-dimensional animation through the desktop wallpaper; or, the desktop wallpaper is a three-dimensional space wallpaper, and the first virtual character can move in three-dimensional space, and the desktop wallpaper is used to display the first virtual character's movement in three-dimensional space. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0115] This application provides a method for displaying a virtual avatar. When an operation to open a target application is detected, the terminal can display the application interface of the target application. Furthermore, when an operation to return to the desktop from the application interface is detected, the terminal switches the currently displayed first desktop wallpaper to a second desktop wallpaper displaying a first interactive animation of the first virtual avatar. This allows the first virtual avatar to display actions associated with the target application based on the user's current target application, thereby improving the relevance between the virtual avatar and the target application, enhancing the expressiveness of the virtual avatar, and improving the user experience.

[0116] All of the above-mentioned optional technical solutions can be combined in any way to form the optional embodiments of this application, and will not be described in detail here.
