  • Publication number: 20240395068
    Abstract: An image processing method for human body posture transformation, which is executed by an electronic device reading an executable code to identify a preset object using artificial intelligence, and performing image processing to capture target postures of the preset object. The method includes the steps of identifying an object, detecting postures, and capturing target postures. The steps involve detecting the preset object undergoing transformation between different postures within a target duration. A capture requirement is met when each posture is visible for a posture visibleness duration and reaches a duration threshold. A target posture transformation video which lasts for a segment duration is captured from an initial image and uploaded to the cloud for storage. An electronic device for human body posture transformation image processing, a terminal device in communication connection with the electronic device, and a non-transient computer-readable recording medium are further provided.
