Abstract
An avatar display device includes: an obtaining part that obtains captured image data of a person; a second obtaining part that obtains, from the captured image data, depth data or image data of the person; a generating part that composes a 3D model in accordance with the depth data or image data to generate an avatar; and a display part that displays, in an image display area of an information communication device, the avatar that is caused to follow a motion of the person.
Claims10
An avatar display device comprising:
- an obtaining part implemented by at least one processor obtaining captured image data of a person;
- a second obtaining part implemented by the processor obtaining, from the captured image data, depth data or image data of the person;
- a generating part implemented by the processor composing a three-dimensional model of a head part of the person and a three-dimensional model of a body part of the person in accordance with the depth data or the image data to generate an avatar;
- and
- a display part implemented by the processor displaying, in an image display area of an information communication device, the avatar that is caused to move the three-dimensional model of the body part with reference to an orientation of the neck of the person and move the three-dimensional model of the head part in accordance with a result of tracking of eyes, a nose, and a mouth of the person.
An avatar generating device comprising:
- an obtaining part implemented by at least one processor obtaining captured image data of a person;
- a second obtaining part implemented by the processor obtaining, from the captured image data, depth data or image data of the person;
- a generating part implemented by the processor composing a three-dimensional model of a head part of the person and a three-dimensional model of a body part of the person in accordance with the depth data or the image data to generate an avatar;
- and
- an output part implemented by the processor outputting the avatar thus generated that is caused to move the three-dimensional mode of the body part with reference to an orientation of the neck of the person and move the three-dimensional model of the head part in accordance with a result of tracking of eyes, a nose, and a mouth of the person.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of an electronic device cause the device to:
- obtain captured image data of a person;
- obtain, from the captured image data, depth data or image data of the person;
- compose a three-dimensional model of a head part of the person and a three-dimensional mode of a body part of the person in accordance with the depth data or the image data to generate an avatar;
- and
- display in an image display area of an information communication device, the avatar that is caused to move the three-dimensional model of the body part with reference to an orientation of the neck of the person and move the three-dimensional model of the head part in accordance with a result of tracking of eyes, a nose, and a mouth of the person.
