Abstract

An electronic apparatus and a method for displaying an image on a display device are disclosed. The electronic apparatus includes a display device; an image acquisition device configured to acquire a surrounding image of the display device; and a processor configured to: determine a background image of the display device according to the surrounding image; acquire a target range and a target object in the background image; determine a target image according to the background image, the target range and the target object; and control the display device to display the target image, wherein the target image excludes the target object.

Claims (70)

1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a display device;

an image acquisition device, wherein the image acquisition device is located on the back of the display device and is configured to acquire a surrounding image of the display device; and

a processor configured to:

determine a background image of the display device according to the surrounding image;

acquire a target range and a target object in the background image;

determine a target image according to the background image, the target range and the target object; and

control the display device to display the target image,

wherein the target image excludes the target object, and

the processor is further configured to adjust an image acquisition frequency of the image acquisition device in response to a change in at least one of a moving range and a moving speed of a user.

2. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the display device comprises:

a frame;

a flexible display screen disposed on one side of the frame; and

a control circuit disposed on the other side of the frame, wherein the flexible display screen is connected to the control circuit.

3. The electronic apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the flexible display screen comprises a curved display portion, and wherein the flexible display screen is connected to the control circuit comprises: the curved display portion is connected to the control circuit.

4. The electronic apparatus of claim 3 , wherein an angle between the curved display portion and a front surface of the display device is 90 degrees, and an optical axis of the image acquisition device is perpendicular to the front surface of the display device.

5. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the determining the target image according to the background image, the target range and the target object comprises:

removing the target object from the background image to obtain a first image, wherein the first image includes a region from which the target object has been removed;

performing image filling on the region after the target object has been removed to obtain a second image; and

determining a part of the second image corresponding to the target range as the target image.

6. The electronic apparatus of claim 5 , wherein the performing image filling on the region after the target object has been removed to obtain the second image comprises:

performing image filling on the region from which the target object has been removed according to image information of the background image to obtain the second image.

7. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the determining the target image according to the background image, the target range and the target object comprises:

detecting whether the target object is within the target range;

in a case where at least a part of the target object is within the target range, removing the target object from the background image to obtain a first image, wherein the first image includes a region from which the target object has been removed;

performing image filling on the region after the target object has been removed to obtain a second image;

determining a part of the second image corresponding to the target range as the target image; and

in a case where the target object is outside the target range, determining a part of the background image corresponding to the target range as the target image.

8. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the image acquisition device comprises a first image acquisition device and a second image acquisition device,

wherein the first image acquisition device and the second image acquisition device are different types of image acquisition devices.

9. The electronic apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the first image acquisition device is configured to acquire a non-wide-angle image and the second image acquisition device is configured to acquire a wide-angle image.

10. The electronic apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the image acquisition device comprises at least two wide-angle image acquisition devices and/or at least two non-wide-angle image acquisition devices; the processor is further configured to obtain the background image by stitching images captured by the at least two wide-angle image acquisition devices and/or the at least two non-wide-angle image acquisition devices.

11. The electronic apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

control enabling one of the first image acquisition devices and the second image acquisition devices according to distance information;

wherein the distance information indicates a distance between the image acquisition device and a background object included in the background image, and the distance information is obtained by the at least two wide-angle image acquisition devices or the at least two non- contact image acquisition devices.

12. The electronic apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the controlling the enabling one of the first image acquisition devices and the second image acquisition devices according to the distance information comprises:

the processor enables the wide-angle image acquisition devices in a case where the distance information indicates that the distance between the image acquisition device and the object included in the background image is less than a predetermined distance.

13. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein acquiring the target object in the background image comprises:

performing object detection on the background image to obtain a category of an object present in the background image;

determining whether the present object belongs to a predetermined category; and

determining the object belonging to the predetermined category as the target object.

14. The electronic apparatus of claim 13 , wherein the object belonging to the predetermined category is a person.

15. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein acquiring the target object in the background image comprises:

determining that a moving object is present in the background image based on at least two surrounding images acquired by the image acquisition device at different times; and

determining the moving object as the target object.

16. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the electronic apparatus further comprises an ambient sensor, the ambient sensor is configured to acquire information about the surrounding environment of the display device; and the processor is further configured to change the target object in response to a change in the surrounding information.

17. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein acquiring the target range comprises:

determining the target range based on a size of the display device.

18. The electronic apparatus of claim 1 , wherein obtaining the target range comprises:

determining a user position relative to the display device;

determining the target range based on the user position.

19. A method for displaying an image on a display device, wherein an image acquisition device is located on the back of the display device, the method comprises:

acquiring, by the image acquisition device, a surrounding image of the display device;

determining a background image of the display device according to the surrounding image;

acquiring a target range and the target object in the background image;

determining a target image according to the background image, the target range and the target object; and

controlling the display device to display the target image;

wherein the target image excludes the target object, and

wherein an image acquisition frequency of the image acquisition device is adjusted in response to a change in at least one of a moving range and a moving speed of a user.

20. An electronic apparatus, comprising:

a display device;

an image acquisition device, wherein the image acquisition device is located on the back of the display device and is configured to acquire a surrounding image of the display device;

an ambient sensor configured to obtain information about surrounding environment of the display device; and
