Abstract
A method for preventing misdirection of pictures and non-authorized viewing which can be applied on a sending terminal communicating with receiving terminals is provided. The method comprises determining a target picture and user identity information of one or more receiving terminals as recipients. The target picture is identified through an image recognition system as being private or non-private and a determination is made as to whether the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture. The target picture is sent to the one or more receiving terminals when determining that all the users of the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture.
Claims22
A method for preventing misdirection of pictures, applied on a sending terminal communicated with at least one receiving terminal, the method comprising:
- determining a target picture and user identity information of one or more receiving terminals;
- identifying the target picture through an image recognition system;
- determining whether all users of the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture according to result of the identification;
- and
- sending the target picture to the one or more receiving terminals when determining that all the users of the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture.
A sending terminal, communicated with one or more receiving terminals, the sending terminal comprising:
- at least one processing unit;
- and
- a non-transitory storage medium coupled to the at least one processing unit and configured to store a plurality of instructions, which cause the sending terminal to:
- determine a target picture and user identity information of one or more receiving terminals;
- identify the target picture through an image recognition system;
- determine whether all users of the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture according to result of the identification;
- and
- send the target picture to the one or more receiving terminals when determining that all the users of the one or more receiving terminals can receive the target picture.
A method for preventing misdirection of pictures, applied on a receiving terminal, the method comprising:
- determining whether a target picture is a private picture when receiving the target picture from a sending terminal;
- detecting whether an environment around the receiving terminal is a private environment through an image recognition system;
- displaying the target picture on a display unit of the receiving terminal when the environment around the receiving terminal is a private environment.
A receiving terminal, communicated with a sending terminal, the receiving terminal comprising:
- at least one processing unit;
- a camera coupled to the at least one processing unit;
- and
- a non-transitory storage medium coupled to the at least one processing unit and configured to store a plurality of instructions, which cause the receiving terminal to:
- determine whether a target picture is a private picture when receiving the target picture from the sending terminal;
- detect whether an environment around the receiving terminal is a private environment through an image recognition system;
- display the target picture on a display unit of the receiving terminal when the environment around the receiving terminal is a private environment.
