All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

The embodiment of the invention provides an image processing method, which is characterized in that N candidate images are displayed on a plurality of display screens of a terminal device, and M sub-images of the N candidate images are combined into one image based on first input of a user to the N candidate images. Compared with the scheme of only editing a single image in the prior art, the method can effectively achieve the purpose of multi-image editing.

The terminal equipment can be a PC or a mobile terminal; the mobile terminal or called mobile communication terminal refers to a computer device which can be used in moving, and broadly includes a mobile phone, a notebook, a tablet computer, a POS machine and even a vehicle-mounted computer; but most often refer to cell phones or smart phones and tablets with multiple application functions.

An application scenario of the present invention is exemplarily illustrated with reference to fig. 1.

In the application scenario, the terminal device includes a plurality of display screens, and a diagram a, a diagram B, and a diagram C are respectively displayed on the plurality of display screens.

The user can generate the input of the graph A, the graph B and the graph C by operating on the display interface; selecting images participating in the combination from the images A, B and C in response to the input by the terminal device, and combining the images participating in the combination into one image (denoted as image D); alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

after the images participating in the merging are selected, desired partial images are further cut out from the images participating in the merging, and the partial images are merged into one image (denoted as a map D).

The technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart of an image processing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method is applied to a terminal device including at least two display screens, and referring to fig. 2, the method may specifically include the following steps:

step 220, receiving a first input of the user to the N candidate images displayed on the at least one first screen.

Wherein, the at least two display screens can be a plurality of physically divided (for example, folded) screens or a plurality of split screens formed after split screen processing; the at least one first screen may refer to a display screen on which the images participating in the composition are located; the first input may be set based on functions supportable by the terminal device, for example: a touch input, a fold input, etc., and in particular, the first input may also be a first operation.

Additionally, it is understood that prior to step 220, the method further comprises: the steps are shown in multiple figures.

For a terminal device of a folder type, a multi-view display step includes:

displaying N candidate images on the at least two display screens under the condition that all the display screens of the terminal equipment are in an unfolded state so as to realize multi-image display; and N is a positive integer, and each display screen displays one alternative image.

For the terminal equipment capable of splitting the screen, the multi-image display step comprises the following steps:

and when the preset operation of the interface for displaying the single picture is detected, performing split screen processing, and displaying N candidate images on a plurality of split screens to realize multi-picture display. Referring to fig. 3, specific examples may be:

step 320, receiving an interface multi-graph display input for displaying a single image.

The preset multi-graph display input may be a first touch input performed on a touch screen of the terminal device, for example: sliding the three fingers into the interface from any screen edge; it may also be a first folding input to the folding screen of the terminal device, for example: the folding screen is folded in half.

Step 340, generating a plurality of split screens and determining a plurality of images associated with the single image based on the multi-image display input.

One implementation may be:

firstly, screen splitting processing is carried out on terminal equipment to obtain a first number of split screens; then, a second number of images is selected from the list of images in which the single image is located.

The selected image may include the single image and images before and/or after the single image.

And 360, displaying the multiple images related to the single image based on the multiple split screens.

If the first number and the second number are the same, one implementation of step 360 may be:

displaying the plurality of images associated with the single image on the plurality of split screens in a one-to-one manner. Referring to fig. 1, assuming that there are 3 split screens, a single image is a diagram a, and the determined multiple images are the diagram a and a diagram B and a diagram C subsequent to the diagram a, the diagram B and the diagram C are respectively displayed on the 3 split screens.

If the first number and the second number are different, and the first number is greater than the second number, another implementation manner of step 360 may be:

displaying a plurality of pictures related to the single image on the plurality of split screens in a one-to-one manner, and displaying an image adding option on redundant split screens, so that a user can select an image by himself through the image adding option to display the image on the split screens.

The redundant split screens are split screens of undisplayed images; the image add option may be a 'plus' visual option.

Therefore, the multiple alternative images can be displayed through the multiple display screens, the purpose of displaying multiple images can be achieved, and a basis is provided for subsequent multiple image editing.

And step 240, responding to the first input, performing image synthesis on the M sub-images, and outputting a target image.

And each sub-image is a partial image in one of the N candidate images, and M is a positive integer greater than 1.

In a first implementation of step 240, the first input includes a first sub-input for selecting a sub-image, whereby M sub-images selected by the first sub-input are displayed on the second screen in response to the first sub-input. With reference to fig. 1, the implementation manner may specifically be as follows:

assuming that the user selects the image A and the image B (marked as sub images) through the first sub input, combining the image A and the image B to form an image and displaying the image on the second screen; alternatively, the first and second electrodes may be,

assuming that the user makes a first sub-input by one finger from left to right across the entire screen, the diagram a, the diagram B, and the diagram C are combined to form one image and displayed on the second screen.

The first sub-input can be sliding input on a touch screen, click input in a preset form, long-time press input, or input of a physical key of the terminal device; the second screen may be any one of the at least two display screens, or may be a screen formed by at least two display screens.

Therefore, the partial images are selected from the multiple images through the first sub-input and displayed on the second screen, so that the multiple complete images are combined.

In the second implementation manner of step 240, the first input includes a second sub-input for updating the alternative images, so that after the multiple images are displayed, the display of the alternative images on the at least two display screens can be updated in response to the second sub-input, so as to implement browsing of multiple images displayed on the multiple screens, improve image browsing efficiency, and provide support for merging of the multiple images.

Wherein the second sub-input is a slide input on a screen of the folder type terminal; or, the second sub-input is a bending input to the folder terminal, and the bending input is used for controlling a target screen area of the folder terminal to bend. If the image is the latter, referring to fig. 4, the image browsing step may specifically be as follows:

and step 420, determining a target screen area and a bending direction corresponding to the bending input.

Wherein, the target screen area refers to an area of a folding screen for bending input (operation); the bending direction refers to a direction relative to a plane where the folding screen is located caused by a bending input, with the plane as a reference, for example: an upward fold angle, a downward fold angle.

Step 440, determining an image updating sequence and an image updating number based on the target screen area and the bending direction.

The bent screen areas are different, and the image updating quantity is different; the bending directions are different, and the image updating sequence is different; for example: and when the upper right corner of the folding screen is folded inwards, all the images displayed on the multiple screens are moved to the left by one position.

Step 460, updating the display of the alternative images on the at least two display screens based on the image updating sequence and the image updating number.

Specifically, the steps 420 to 460 may be exemplified by:

example 1, based on the sliding distance of the left (right) swipe operation in the screen, a left (right) shift of a corresponding number of images out of 3 images is achieved; the longer the sliding distance, the greater the number of images translated;

example 2, by folding the upper right corner of the screen inward once (see fig. 5), an overall left shift of 3 images is achieved once (replacing 1 image); or, the upper left corner of the folding screen is folded inwards once, so that the 3 images are integrally moved to the right once (1 image is replaced).

The folding position and the corresponding function thereof can be flexibly configured by the user based on the operation habit of the user, for example: the folded lower left corner can also be configured to replace 1 image to the left, and the like.

Example 3, by folding the upper right corner of the screen outward once, the 3 images are turned over backward as a whole (3 images are replaced); or, the upper left corner of the folding screen is folded outwards once, so that the 3 images are turned forwards integrally (3 images are replaced).

Furthermore, the user can select the image on a certain display screen in the image browsing process so as to be free from the influence of image updating, and continue browsing by updating the images on other display screens; accordingly, the implementation manner of step 460 may specifically be:

and determining the images in the unselected state in the plurality of images, and based on the image updating sequence and the image updating quantity, adjusting the images in the unselected state to move left by one image bit, move left by all image bits, move right by one image bit, move right by all image bits and the like so as to update the images in the unselected state displayed on at least two display screens, but not update the images in the selected state. Therefore, the operability and the interestingness of multi-image browsing can be increased.

The implementation manner of the image selecting step may be:

the first input further comprises a third sub-input for triggering display of an image marquee and a fourth sub-input for adjusting a display position of the image marquee, whereby the image marquee may be displayed in response to the third sub-input after the multi-map display; and in response to the fourth sub-input, determining each image framed by the image selection frame as a sub-image. Further, after the user selects the image, the first implementation of step 240 may be used to merge the selected sub-images. The third sub-input can be a preset touch operation; the image selection frame can be displayed at the touch occurrence position or any position of the screen and used for selecting an image from the plurality of candidate images so as to enable the image to be in a selected state.

Referring to fig. 6 to 7, the image selecting step may specifically be as follows:

the user slides out an image pick-up box 61 from the leftmost side of the screen with a double finger, places it on the I-screen, and a halo appears around the I-screen indicating that the image in the screen is selected (see fig. 7). Preferably, there is a maximum of split screen count minus 1 image marquee by default. The double-finger dragging in the I screen can drag the 'selection frame' to other split screens to select other images, and meanwhile, the images in the original split screens are in a deselected state. Continuing to double-finger drag the "selection box" to any screen edge, the selection box disappears.

Further, when the image is in the selected state, the image is not changed by the image browsing operation of step 704. That is, the normal display of the image is not affected by the movement or page-turning operation in other split screens.

Therefore, the image selecting frame is displayed through the third sub-input, the required complete image is selected from the multiple images through the fourth sub-input operation image selecting frame, and the complete image is used as the sub-image to participate in image merging, so that the aim of improving the multi-image selecting efficiency is fulfilled, and support is provided for multi-image merging.

In a third implementation manner of step 240, if the first input includes a fifth sub-input to an nth candidate image, where the nth candidate image is any one of the N candidate images, referring to fig. 8, before image synthesizing M sub-images, the method further includes:

and step S1, opening a 'cutting and splicing mode' by folding one corner of the screen at the lower right corner 81 of the folding screen, and entering a 'cutting and splicing interface'.

In the 'cutting and splicing interface', an I, III screen displays two images of a selected image A and an image B as a cutting material by default; the II screen displays the final spliced image and is replaced by the image X; the circular icon 82 in the right margin is used to control the associated operations of the cut.

The user can switch images by sliding on the screen I, III; in this case, the image in the I screen is changed and the image in the II screen is kept unchanged, and when the image to be stitched is confirmed, the image is selected.

Step S2, in response to the fifth sub-input, dividing the nth candidate image into X × Y sub-regions.

And step S3, receiving a fifth input of the user to K sub-regions in the X X Y sub-regions.

And step S4, determining the images of the K sub-regions as the sub-images of the nth candidate image.

Assuming that the image a is the nth candidate image, referring to fig. 8 to 10, steps S2 to S4 may specifically be exemplified as:

the user clicks on select graph a, clicks on the right circular control 82 to divide graph a into X Y small squares (i.e., small regions); based on the method, the user can roughly select the required material main body area, and the intercepted area is saved by folding the lower right corner 81 of the folding screen; the I screen displays the intercepted area in a full screen mode; furthermore, the previous operations can be repeated for a plurality of times, and the intercepting area is further divided and selected until the required material (marked as a sub-image a) is intercepted.

Similarly, the required sub-images can be cut out from the other alternative images in the same way.

Further, the first input further comprises a sixth sub-input for triggering the copying of the sub-images and a seventh sub-input for triggering the image composition, whereby the images of the K sub-regions may be copied to the target screen for display in response to the sixth sub-input for the sub-images selected in the steps S1-S3; and responding to the seventh sub-input, synthesizing the images of the T sub-areas in the target screen, and outputting a target image.

The target screen may be any one of at least two screens, or may be a display screen where an image not participating in merging is located, preferably the latter, so that a sub-image can be displayed in the target screen, and a complete image of the sub-image can be displayed in the original display screen.

In connection with the corresponding examples of fig. 8-10, the implementation of the image copying and synthesizing step may be exemplified as:

referring to fig. 11, by folding the screen where the diagram a is located, the diagram a is copied to the middle II screen for display; in the same way, other sub-images can be copied to the II screen, and different sub-images are defaulted to be in different image layers, so that the relative position between the sub-images can be adjusted, and an image required by a user can be obtained; the "truncated mosaic mode" can then be exited by releasing the folded portion of the folded screen at the lower right corner 81.

Therefore, on the basis of the first implementation mode or the second implementation mode, the required partial images are further cut out from the complete image and are merged as the sub-images, and therefore the purpose of improving the merging precision of the multiple images is achieved; moreover, the realization mode can further improve the multi-image merging precision by copying each sub-image to the same screen for position adjustment and merging; in addition, the purpose of combining multiple images can be achieved through folding operation and/or touch operation of the folding screen, and the folding screen has the advantages of being simple and convenient to operate and high in interestingness.

Based on the above, in this embodiment, N candidate images are displayed on a plurality of display screens of the terminal device, and M sub-images of the N candidate images are merged into one image based on a first input of the user to the N candidate images. Compared with the scheme that only a single image can be edited in the prior art, the purpose of merging multiple images can be effectively realized.

In addition, for simplicity of explanation, the above-described method embodiments are described as a series of acts or combinations, but it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited by the order of acts or steps described, as some steps may be performed in other orders or simultaneously according to the present invention.
