Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention disclose an image display method and apparatus, and relates to the field of Internet communications. The method includes: acquiring a source image and a user image corresponding to the source image, where the user image is a movement image generated after a user imitates the source image; processing the source image and the user image; and sending the processed source image and user image to a terminal, so that the terminal simultaneously displays the source image and the user image. In embodiments of the present invention, a terminal simultaneously presents a source image and a user image to a user, so that the user can visually compare a difference between the user image and the source image, which is convenient for the user to imitate the source image and accelerates a learning speed of the user.

Claims (37)

1. An image display method performed by a set-top box, wherein the method comprises:

acquiring a source image;

acquiring a user image corresponding to the source image, wherein the user image is taken from a plurality of images of a user image stream generated while a user imitates a displayed movement according to a source image stream;

processing the source image and the user image to render a processed source image information and a processed user image information wherein the processing comprises:

acquiring a source image textual description of the source image and a user image textual description of the user image, and

determining a difference between the user image and the source image according to the source image textual description and the user image textual description; and

sending the difference between the user image and the source image, the processed source image information and, the processed user image information to a terminal for simultaneously displaying, at the terminal, the difference along with the processed source image information and the processed user image information,

wherein the source image textual description and the user image textual description specify a position of a body part, and

wherein the difference between the user image and the source image describes a difference between a body part position textual description in the source image textual description and a corresponding body part position textual description in the user image textual description,

wherein the difference comprises a difference textual description,

wherein the sending further comprises sending, to the terminal, the source image textual description, the user image textual description, and the difference textual description for simultaneously displaying, with the processed source image information and the processed user image information at the terminal, the source image textual description, the user image textual description, and an indication, based on the difference textual description, of the difference between the user image and the source image, and

wherein the acquiring a source image and a user image corresponding to the source image comprises:

acquiring the source image and a time stamp corresponding to the source image; and

receiving a user image that is corresponding to the time stamp and sent by an image acquisition device.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the processing the source image and the user image comprises:

setting an image size of the processed user image information and an image size of the processed source image information to a same image size.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication of the difference comprises a marking of the difference between the user image and the source image.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indication of the difference comprises a display of the difference textual description.

5. An image display apparatus, wherein the apparatus comprises a processor and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including computer-executable instructions executed by the processor to perform operations comprising:

acquiring a source image and a user image corresponding to the source image, wherein the user image is taken from a plurality of images of a user image stream generated while a user imitates a displayed movement according to a source image stream;

processing the source image and the user image to render a processed source image information and a processed user image information wherein the processing comprises:

acquiring a source image textual description of the source image and a user image textual description of the user image, and

determining a difference between the user image and the source image according to the source image textual description and the user image textual description; and

sending the difference between the user image and the source image, the processed source image information and the processed user image information to a terminal for simultaneously displaying, at the terminal, the difference along with the processed source image information and the processed user image information,

wherein the source image textual description and the user image textual description specify a position of a body part, and

wherein the difference between the user image and the source image describes a difference between a body part position textual description in the source image textual description and a corresponding body part position textual description in the user image textual description,

wherein the difference comprises a difference textual description,

wherein the sending further comprises sending, to the terminal, the source image textual description, the user image textual description, and the difference textual description for simultaneously displaying, with the processed source image information and the processed user image information at the terminal, the source image textual description, the user image textual description, and an indication, based on the difference textual description, of the difference between the user image and the source image, and

wherein the acquiring a source image and a user image corresponding to the source image comprises:

acquiring the source image and a time stamp corresponding to the source image; and

receiving a user image that is corresponding to the time stamp and sent by an image acquisition device.

6. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processing the source image and the user image comprises:

setting an image size of the user image and an image size of the source image to a same size.

7. The apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the apparatus is a set-top box device.

8. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the apparatus is a set-top box device.

9. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the indication of the difference comprises a marking of the difference between the user image and the source image.

10. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the indication of the difference comprises a display of the difference textual description.
