Method and apparatus for synthesizing virtual and real objects

A terminal device, comprising:

• a processor;
• a camera apparatus coupled to the processor;
• and
• a memory for storing instructions executable by the processor;
• wherein the processor is configured to:
• acquire a target object in a two-dimensional image captured by the terminal device;
• in a depth information fusion mode, acquire depth information of the target object by the camera apparatus of the terminal device, wherein the depth information fusion mode is configured to superimpose a virtual object generated by computer modeling on the two-dimensional image, and the depth information of the target object is configured to indicate a distance between the target object and the terminal device;
• acquire two-dimensional position information of the virtual object placed in the two-dimensional image;
• calculate, after the target object is acquired, depth information of the virtual object according to the two-dimensional position information of the virtual object placed in the two-dimensional image, wherein the depth information of the virtual object is recorded in the two-dimensional position information of the virtual object, and the depth information of the virtual object changes with the movement of the virtual object in the two-dimensional image;
• and
• superimpose the virtual object on the two-dimensional image according to a comparison result of the depth information of the target object and the depth information of the virtual object.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein instructions that, when executed by a processor of a terminal device, cause the terminal device to perform a method for synthesizing virtual and real objects, the method comprising:

• acquiring a target object in a two-dimensional image captured by the terminal device;
• in a depth information fusion mode, acquiring depth information of the target object by a camera apparatus of the terminal device, wherein the depth information fusion mode is configured to superimpose a virtual object generated by computer modeling on the two-dimensional image, and the depth information of the target object is configured to indicate a distance between the target object and the terminal device;
• acquiring two-dimensional position information of the virtual object placed in the two-dimensional image;
• calculating, after the target object is acquired, depth information of the virtual object according to the two-dimensional position information of the virtual object placed in the two-dimensional image, wherein the depth information of the virtual object is recorded in the two-dimensional position information of the virtual object, and the depth information of the virtual object changes with the movement of the virtual object in the two-dimensional image;
• and
• superimposing the virtual object on the two-dimensional image according to a comparison result of the depth information of the target object and the depth information of the virtual object.
