FIG. 1 is a flow diagram of an image processing method in the prior art. As shown in FIG. 1, the image processing method in a current VR system is as follows: after the hardware is identified correctly and data from a gyroscope is uploaded and processed, a current Euler angle of a user is calculated. Then. Multi-Resolution-Shading (MRS) is carried out based on coordinates of a gaze point. Taking a target resolution of 4k4k of a single-eye as an example, a resolution of an image of the single-eye after MRS is 2k2k. Then, after a flattening process, an image of the single-eye with a resolution of 4k4k is obtained. Then, after an anti-distortion process, the image of the single-eye is outputted to the display apparatus for displaying.

According to the above image processing method, the higher the resolution of the image displayed by the display apparatus, the higher the requirement of the transmission bandwidth when the image is transmitted by a personal computer (PC) terminal.

In view of the above deficiencies, an image processing method of virtual reality is provided according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. A display apparatus provided with the image processing method can display high-resolution images without the need of increasing transmission bandwidths.

The present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings together with embodiments.

An image processing method of virtual reality is provided according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, the image processing method includes the following steps:

In step 201, position information of a gaze point is obtained. The position information of the gaze point is position information of a gaze point of a user's eye on an original image.

In one embodiment, the position information of the gaze point is obtained according to an eyeball tracking algorithm. The position information of the gaze point is the position information of the gaze point of the user's eye on the original image, that is, the coordinates.

In step 202, a compression process is performed on the original image based on the position information of the gaze point to obtain a compressed image.

In one embodiment, step 202 is implemented according to the below embodiment, but not limited to, as follows.

First, the original image is divided into a high-resolution display region and non-high-resolution display regions based on the position information of the gaze point. The gaze point is located in the high-resolution display region.

In one embodiment according to the position information of the gaze point, the high-resolution display region in the original image is determined by taking the gaze point as a center of the high-resolution display region. The high-resolution display region may be a region of a square shape. Eight non-high-resolution display regions are determined based on the positions of four vertexes of the high-definition display region in the original image, and they are respectively located right above the high-definition display region, right below the high-definition display region, at the left side of the high-definition display region, at the right side of the high-definition display region, at the upper left side, the upper right side, the lower left side, and the lower right side of the high-definition display region, respectively.

FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of grid scattered points of an original image. FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of grid scattered points of the original image being divided into nine regions. After the coordinates of the gaze point in FIG. 3 are determined, a high-resolution display region having the gaze point as the center is determined in the original image. That is region {circle around (5)} in FIG. 4. Then, according to the positions of the four vertexes A, B, C, and D of region {circle around (5)}, eight high-resolution display regions are determined, and they are respectively located right above the high-resolution display region, right below the high-resolution display region, at the left side, the right side, the upper left side, the upper right side, the lower left side, and the lower right side of the high-resolution display region. That is, region {circle around (1)} (upper left side), region {circle around (2)} (right above), region {circle around (3)} (upper right side), region {circle around (4)} (right above), region {circle around (6)} (right side), region {circle around (7)} (lower left side), region {circle around (8)} (right below), region {circle around (9)} (lower right side).

In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the original image is divided into nine regions based on the position of the gaze point. As the position of the gaze point changes, the positions of the nine regions also change correspondingly. The positions of the nine divided regions as shown in FIG. 4 are only one of the possible ways of the division.

In addition, when determining the regions based on the position of the gaze point, a percentage of an area of the high-resolution region, region @, in the original image is not less than 30%.

Second, the original image is subjected to a compression process to obtain a compressed or distorted image. During the compression process, the high-resolution display region is not compressed, and the non-high-resolution display regions are compressed.

In one embodiment, the principle of the compression is, but not limited to, as follows:

Ordinates of pixel points in the non-high-resolution display regions right above and below the high-resolution display region are subjected to a compression process. In one embodiment, the non-high-resolution display regions located right above and below the high-resolution display region are compressed r times respectively.

Abscissas of pixel points in the non-high-resolution display regions on the left side and the right side of the high-resolution display region are subjected to a compression process. In one embodiment, the non-high-resolution display regions located on the left side and the right side of the high-resolution display region are compressed r times respectively.

Ordinates and abscissas of pixel points in the non-high-resolution display regions located at the upper left side, the lower right side, the upper right side, and the lower right side of the high-resolution display region are subjected to a compression process respectively. In one embodiment, the non-high-resolution display regions located at the upper left side, the lower right side, the upper right side, and the lower right side of the high-resolution display regions are compressed r2 times respectively.

The term r is a preset compression coefficient.

Taking FIG. 4 as an example, different regions are compressed correspondingly as follows:

Region {circle around (1)}: both a distortion ordinate and a distortion abscissa are subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r² times;

Region {circle around (2)}: a distortion abscissa is subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r times;

Region {circle around (3)}: both a distortion ordinate and a distortion abscissa are subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r times;

Region {circle around (4)}: a distortion ordinate is subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r times;

Region {circle around (5)}: not subjected to a compression process:

Region {circle around (6)}: a distortion ordinate is subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r times;

Region {circle around (7)}: both a distortion ordinate and a distortion abscissa are subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r² times;

Region {circle around (8)}: a distortion abscissa is subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r times; and

Region {circle around (9)}: both a distortion ordinate and a distortion abscissa are subjected to a compression process, and the region is compressed r² times.
