1Ease of manufacture

If 2D transition images are used for video segment splicing, then the processing is simple and fast, but the display effect is not rich enough

Solution Approach 1:

The patent transforms 2D transition images into 3D transition effect images by applying 3D transformation information. This involves determining 3D transformation parameters (rotation angles, translation distances, scaling factors) and applying them to the transition model, thereby adding spatial depth and perspective to the transition effect, which significantly enriches the display effect while maintaining processing efficiency

Core Design Contradiction:

Solution Approach 1:

The patent divides the 3D transition effect generation into distinct modular steps: (1) determining 3D transformation information, (2) transforming the transition model, (3) sampling pixel values from source images, and (4) generating the final 3D transition effect image. This segmentation allows each step to be optimized independently and facilitates implementation while managing processing complexity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The patent utilizes 3D transformation parameters (rotation angles, translation distances, scaling factors) to convert 2D images into 3D effect images. By changing these parameters dynamically based on the transition model, the system achieves rich 3D display effects without requiring complete redesign of the processing pipeline, thus managing complexity through parameter-based transformation rather than structural complexity

AI summary

A method and an apparatus for generating a transition effect image, a device, and a storage medium. 3D transformation information corresponding to a transition model at a current time instant is determined. The transition model is transformed based on the 3D transformation information, to obtain a transformed transition model. A pixel value is sampled from a set image based on the transformed transition model. A 3D transition effect image corresponding to the transition model is generated based on the pixel value.
