  • Publication number: 20240163392
    Abstract: A method and a device for performing special effect processing on an image, an electronic apparatus, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: acquiring a video; arranging a preset movable window on the video, where the window moves on the video; determining a current image based on a current play progress of the video; acquiring, from a data storage layer by an image acquisition unit of a rendering layer, a historical image when the window is moved to a preset position; combining the historical image and the current image by an animation logic processing unit of a script layer and a special effect unit of the rendering layer; and outputting the combined image and displaying the combined image on a terminal screen.

  • Publication number: 20220382441
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for constructing a virtual assembly, and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. The method includes: receiving a cutting operation instruction input on a substrate by a user, displaying, on the substrate, a cutting path indicated by the cutting operation instruction, and cutting the substrate into at least two parts, and by means of receiving an assembly instruction input by the user, assembling the at least two parts, and displaying a virtual assembly formed by means of assembly. Since the parts are determined by the cutting path indicated by the cutting operation instruction input by the user, the “parts” in the method are not limited by material or shape, and the virtual assembly formed by assembling the parts is not limited by materials, parts, space, etc. Therefore, the construction of a virtual assembly is highly flexible, thereby improving the user experience.
