Abstract
According to an illustrative embodiment, an image processing device is provided. The image processing device includes a foreground selection processing circuit to select at least one foreground image that has been separated from a source image; a background selection circuit to select at least two display background images from at least one background image that has been separated from the source image; and a combination circuit to combine the at least one selected foreground image with the at least two display background images to generate a plurality of combined images, wherein at least one of the plurality of combined images does not appear in the source image.
Claims25
An image processing device, comprising:
- one or more central processing units (CPU) configured to:
- extract a foreground image corresponding to a target object from a target frame among a plurality of input frames of an input motion image;
- output a first output frame of an output motion image, in case the target object is imaged in a first current frame of the input motion image, wherein the first output frame includes the target object associated with the foreground image extracted from the target frame, at least a part of the first current frame;
- output a second output frame of the output motion image, in case the target object is not imaged in a second current frame, wherein the second output frame is generated by combining the foreground image extracted from the target frame, and at least a part of the second current frame;
- and
- output a plurality of output frames of the output motion image including the first output frame and the second output frame, wherein each of the plurality of input frames correspond to each of the plurality of output frames.
An image processing method, comprising:
- extracting by an image processing device, a foreground image corresponding to a target object from a target frame among a plurality of input frames of an input motion image;
- outputting by said image processing device, a first output frame of an output motion image, in case the target object is imaged in a first current frame of the input motion image, wherein the first output frame includes the target object associated with the foreground image extracted from the target frame, and at least a part of a first current frame;
- outputting by said image processing device, a second output frame of an output motion image, in case the target object is not imaged in a second current frame, wherein the second output frame is generated by combining the foreground image extracted from the target frame, and at least a part of a second current frame;
- and
- outputting by said image processing device, a plurality of output frames of the output motion image including the first output frame and the second output frame, wherein each of the plurality input frames correspond to each of the plurality of output frames.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of computer-readable instructions for causing a computer to perform steps comprising:
- extracting a foreground image corresponding to a target object from a target frame among a plurality of input frames of an input motion image;
- outputting a first output frame of an output motion image, in case the target object is imaged in a first current frame of the input motion image, wherein the first output frame includes the target object associated with the foreground image extracted from the target frame, and at least a part of a first current frame;
- outputting a second output frame of an output motion image, in case the target object is not imaged in a second current frame, wherein the second output frame is generated by combining the foreground image extracted from the target frame, at least a part of a second current frame;
- and
- output a plurality of output frames of the output motion image including the first output frame and the second output frame wherein each of the plurality input frames correspond to each of the plurality of output frames.
