  • Publication number: 20240116189
    Abstract: A virtual robot image presentation method and an apparatus are provided to improve virtual robot utilization and user experience. In this method, an electronic device generates a first virtual robot image, and presents the first virtual robot image. The first virtual robot image is determined by the electronic device based on scene information. The scene information includes at least one piece of information in first information and second information, the first information is used to represent a current time attribute, and the second information is used to represent a type of an application currently running in the electronic device. According to the foregoing method, in a human-machine interaction process, virtual robot images can be richer and more vivid, so that user experience can be better, thereby improving virtual robot utilization of a user.

  • Patent number: 11302286
    Abstract: A picture obtaining method and apparatus and a picture processing method and apparatus are provided. The method includes: obtaining a grayscale image corresponding to a first picture and a first image, where a size of the first picture is equal to a size of the first image, the first image includes N parallel lines, a spacing between two adjacent lines does not exceed a spacing threshold, and N is an integer greater than 1; translating a pixel included in each line in the first image based on the grayscale image, to obtain a second image, where the second image includes a contour of an image in the first picture; and set a pixel value of each pixel included in each line in the second image, to obtain a second picture.

  • Patent number: 11025768
    Abstract: An information displaying method and a terminal are provided. The method includes: obtaining audio data to be played in a chronological order; determining, based on attribute information at any moment of a sound represented by the audio data, a shape of a graph corresponding to the any moment, where the graph corresponding to the any moment including a closed curve with a bump, and a maximum distance in distances from points on the bump to a center of the graph is positively correlated to a value indicated by the attribute information at the any moment; and displaying the graph corresponding to the any moment. The bump in the graph changes with the value indicated by the attribute information of the sound, and such graph is presented to a user, to enhance perception of the user on the attribute information of the audio data and improve user experience.

  • Patent number: 10607380
    Abstract: An information display method and a terminal, where the information display method includes detecting whether a terminal is currently connected to an external device, transmitting a transmission object between the terminal and the external device when the terminal is currently connected to the external device, and displaying a progress graph and a transmission dynamic animation on a screen of the terminal when the transmission object is transmitted between the terminal and the external device, where the transmission dynamic animation includes an object graph that moves from a start position on the screen to an end position on the screen and disappears at the end position, and the object graph is used to indicate the transmission object. According to the foregoing method, a user can have better experience in perceiving a status of the connection between the terminal and the external device.
