Solution Overview

Problem

Special effect images in prior art are not vivid enough, lacking dynamic and engaging visual appeal.

Innovation Solution

An image processing method that generates and superimposes special effect animations on videos, where materials move and stay at feature points detected by image edge detection, allowing for diverse animation effects and enhanced visual engagement.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If special effect images are created using prior art methods, then special effects can be added to images, but the special effect images are not vivid enough

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveease of adding special effectsVSAvoidvisual appeal quality
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the special effect materials move dynamically across the image rather than remaining static. The materials are generated at random positions and move to new positions in subsequent frames, creating a vivid, dynamic visual effect that enhances productivity while maintaining ease of implementation through simple movement logic.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #15Dynamics

2Adaptability or versatility

If special effect materials are generated at random positions, then diverse animation effects can be achieved, but the special effects lack precision and control

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanimation effect diversityVSAvoidposition control accuracy
Core Design Contradiction:
Adaptability or versatilityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by differentiating the treatment of special effect materials based on their positions. Materials generated within the effective range of the shooting element are allowed to move and be captured, while materials outside this range remain fixed and are not captured. This creates localized control that provides both diversity (through random generation within range) and precision (through boundary-based control).

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

AI summary

Disclosed are an image processing method and apparatus, an electronic device, and a computer readable storage medium. The method comprises: obtaining a video acquired by a photographing element; superimposing a special-effects animation on the video for display, wherein in the special-effects animation, a first special-effects material is generated at a first position in the video and starts to move from the first position, and when a second position to which the first special-effects material moves in the video is located at a feature point obtained by image edge detection in the video, the first special-effects material stays at the second position.
