In the embodiment of the disclosure, the operation of the processor 15 may be illustrated as a flowchart of
In operation S32, the processor 15 acquires the captured video 1 photographing the surroundings of the display apparatus 10. At this time, the captured video 1 may be received from the external apparatus 20 such as a mobile device through the communication interface 14, or may be acquired from the camera 18 built into the display apparatus 10.
Next, in operation S33, the processor 15 determines a first color (refer to reference numeral ‘43’ in
The second color includes at least one color that is similar to the first color 43 or is well harmonized with the first color 43, such as a color having a complementary color relationship.
Finally, in operation S34, the processor 15 allocates the first color 43 or the second color to at least some area of the content video 3 and displays the allocated first code 43 or second color. Here, the first color 43 and the second color may be generated as color palette information (reference numeral ‘44’ in
In one embodiment, the processor 15 may generate an image having a predetermined pattern by using color palette information including the first color 43 and at least one second color determined using the captured video 1 photographing the surroundings. In this case, the processor 15 may display an image having a predetermined pattern that is well harmonized with the surrounding space instead of the content video 3. Accordingly, even when the content is not displayed, it is possible to provide an image of a predetermined pattern to which a color fitting a space well is reflected.
As described above, according to the disclosure, it is possible to provide a user with a consumption experience of content having a sense of unity with his or her own space by displaying the content in the color fitting the space well. In addition, it is possible to effectively reflect the characteristics for each area of the content when providing content in the color fitting the space well.
On the other hand, the display apparatus 10 of the disclosure may download and execute instructions stored in a separate computer program product (not illustrated) to perform an operation of displaying content video in a color fitting a space by using video photographing the surroundings.
As an example, the display apparatus 10 may download and install a predetermined application providing the function of the disclosure from an external server, and execute the installed application to perform an operation of displaying the content video 3 in a color fitting a space by using the video 1 photographing the surroundings.
In one embodiment, the computer program product includes a memory in which a plurality of instructions are stored and a processor. Here, when executed by the processor, the instruction includes acquiring the video 1 photographing the surroundings of the display apparatus 10, determining the first color 43 representing the acquired video 1 and at least one second color related to the first color 43, and allocating the determined first color or second color 44 to at least some area of the content 3 and displaying the allocated first color or second color 44 on the display 13.
As an embodiment, the instruction may include determining the first color 43 based on a color share of the acquired video 1 or a priority of identified objects. Accordingly, a color having a high space share or a color of a major object in the video photographing the space may be used as a representative color and reflected to the content.
As an embodiment, the processor 15 acquires captured videos 41 and 42 photographing the surrounding space from a camera 181 built in a screen of a display 130 or a mobile device 201.
The processor 15 detects colors in space from the acquired captured videos 41 and 42, and extracts at least one first color 43 as a representative color representing the space from the detected colors. For example, the at least one first color 43 may include colors corresponding to RGB 175, 166, and 175 and RGB 127, 97, and 99, respectively.
The processor 15 generates color palette information 44 including the first color 43 extracted from the captured videos 41 and 42 and colors fitting the first color 43 well. As an example, the color palette information 44 may include the first color 43, and colors corresponding to RGB 142, 57, and 66, RGB 187, 146, and 143, and RGB 192, 178, and 128 that are analyzed as fitting the first color 43 well.
In order to reflect the color palette information 44 to the content video 45, the processor 15 changes RGB values of each color included in the color palette information 44 to a HSV value 441 that is converted into a color space including hue, saturation, and brightness (value). Accordingly, in order to reflect the color fitting the space well to the content, the RGB values of each color may be converted into the HSV values. In this case, the processor 15 may arrange each color converted into the HSV values 441 in order of high brightness. Accordingly, the HSV values of each color may be arranged in order of brightness to easily reflect the colors in consideration of the characteristics for each area of the content.
The processor 15 changes the color of at least some area of the content video 45 based on the changed HSV value 441 of each color in the color palette information 44 as described above.
As an embodiment, the processor 15 acquires captured videos 51, 52, and 53 photographing surrounding spaces from the camera 181 built in the screen of the display 13 at a predetermined period. At this time, the first captured video 51 photographed at a first point in time shows objects such as floor, wallpaper, ceiling, sofa, and curtain, and the second captured video 52 photographed at a second point in time that elapses a predetermined time from the first point in time further shows a person in addition to the objects in the first capture video 51.
Similarly, the third capture video 53 is photographed at a third point in time that elapses a predetermined time from the second point in time at which the second capture video 52 is photographed, and shows a state in which a color of a person's clothes in the second capture video 52 is changed.
As described above, the processor 15 acquires the plurality of captured videos 51, 52, and 53 at a predetermined period, and extracts first colors 511, 521, and 531 that represent a space from each of the captured videos 51, 52, and 53.
As an example, the processor 15 extracts the color of the sofa and the curtain as the first color 511 representing the space from the captured video 51 photographed at the first point in time, and extracts the color of the curtain and the person's clothes as the first color 521 representing the space from the captured video 52 photographed at the second point in time. The processor 15 also extracts the color of the curtain and the person's clothes as the first color 531 representing the space from the captured video 53 photographed at the third point in time.
As described above, when the first colors 511, 521, and 531 representing the space are extracted from each of the captured videos 51, 52, and 53 photographed at a predetermined period, the processor 15 generates each color palette information 512, 522, and 532 corresponding to each photographing point in time, including colors fitting each first color 511, 521, and 531 well.
That is, the processor 15 may change the content video to the color fitting the space at each point in time by using the color palette information 512, 522, and 532 varying according to the shape of the space at the photographing point in time.
According to the embodiment of the disclosure as described above, the built-in camera may continuously monitor the space to reflect an instantaneous color change, which is caused by a person's movement in the space, to the content.
In one embodiment, the processor 15 extracts a plurality of colors 62 identified in the space in the captured video 61.
The processor 15 may use the following two criteria to determine a representative color representing a space among the plurality of colors 62 extracted from the captured video 61.
As an embodiment, the processor 15 may determine the representative color based on a share 63 of the color in the space. For example, the processor 15 may select, as the representative color of the space, two colors having a high color share (63) of 40% and 35% among the plurality of colors 62 extracted from the captured video 61.
As another embodiment, the processor 15 may recognize at least one object, that is, an object from the captured video 61, and may determine a representative color based on a priority 64 of the recognized objects. For example, the processor 15 may select, as a representative color of a space, a wall, a loop, and a floor with the high priority 64 among the plurality of colors 62 extracted from the captured video 61. In this case, the priority 64 of the object in the space of the captured video 61 may be preset and stored, or may be set through the user input.
In one embodiment, the processor 15 extracts a plurality of colors 74 identified in the space in the captured video 73. In the illustrated example, a plurality of colors 74 are all used as a representative color representing the capture video 73.
The processor 15 uses a plurality of color combination samples 75 to generate color palette information 76 that fits the plurality of colors 74 extracted from the captured video 73 well.
For example, the processor 15 may implement a color palette engine 77 using the color combination sample 75 of a color specialized company, an interior specialized company, and the like. When a combination of specific colors, such as a plurality of colors 74, is input, the color palette engine may output the color palette information 76 that fits the plurality of colors well through the machine learning using the color combination sample 75. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain colors fitting a color representing a space by using various color combination samples acquired from the outside.

As an embodiment, the content video 80 is implemented in a software form, and a color principle for applying a color to the content video 80 may be set.
The color principle applied to the content video 80 may include, for example, a color tone and color characteristics for each area or each configuration of content. At this time, the color tone affects the color change of the color palette information 44, and as an example, pastel tone, a vivid tone, a light tone, and a cool tone may be applied separately.
In addition, the color characteristics for each area or each configuration of the content are related to at least some area of the content video 80 or what color of the characteristics to be applied to each configuration identified in the content video 80, and as an example, a base color, a dominant color, an accent color, and the like may be applied separately.
As an embodiment, the base color is defined as a color that is the background of the content video 80, and may be set to apply a color having the second highest brightness (value) among the colors of the color palette information 44.
The dominant color is defined as a color that serves as an auxiliary role of the base color, and may be set to select and apply a color having a complementary relationship with the base color.
In addition, the accent color is defined as a color that occupies the smallest area in the content video 80, but is a point, and may be set to apply a color having high brightness (value) among the colors of the color palette information 44.
In the example of
In addition, in the example of
First, in operation S1, the processor 15 generates the color palette information (refer to reference numeral ‘111’ in
As an embodiment, as in the example of
In addition, the processor 15 may generate color palette information 113 in which the HSV values of the color palette information 112 are arranged in the order of high brightness, so that the content video 45 can be applied to each area or each configuration.
Next, in operation S102, the processor 15 converts the color palette information 113 based on the color tone preset in the content video 45.
As an example, as illustrated in
In addition, when ‘vivid tone’ is set as a setting value of the color tone for the content video 45, the processor 15 may convert the color palette information 113 arranged in order of brightness into the color palette information 122 to which the vivid tone is reflected.
In addition to this, the processor 15 may use color palette information 125 converted to correspond to various color tones set for the content video 45.
Next, in operation S103, the processor 15 applies the color palette information 113 to the content video 45 according to the color characteristics for each configuration preset in the content video 45. That is, the processor 15 may apply the color palette information 113 to the content video 45 on the basis of the color characteristics set for at least some area of the content video 45 or an object.
As an embodiment, the processor 15 may set a color tone for the content video 45 according to the user input and may change the color palette information based on the set color tone.
In addition, the processor 15 may set the information on the color characteristics for each area or each configuration for the content video 45 according to the user input and may change the color palette information based on the set information.
Accordingly, the color fitting the space well may be reflected to the content in consideration of the color tone and the characteristics for each area directly set by the user for the content.
Finally, in operation S104, the processor 15 displays the content video 45 whose color has been changed by performing the operations S101 to S103 on the screen.
Accordingly, the color fitting the space well may be reflected to the content in consideration of the color tone and the characteristics for each area set when the content is produced.
In one embodiment, in displaying the content video 130 in different spaces, the processor 15 may generate the color palette information by extracting the first color representing each space and at least one second color fitting the first color well from the captured videos 131, 132, and 133 photographed in each space, and reflect the color of the color palette information to each space to display content videos 1311, 1321, and 1331.
As described above, according to the disclosure, even if the content is the same, when the user's space is different, the content can be provided to the user in colors fitting each space.
Hereinabove, the disclosure has been described in detail through the preferred embodiments, but the disclosure is not limited thereto and may be implemented in various ways within the scope of the claims.
