An electronic device according to an embodiment may include: a camera module; a display; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to: obtain a preview image corresponding to an external object using the camera module; determine attributes of the external object, based on the obtained preview image; synthesize the preview image with a virtual character image, based on the attributes of the external object; and output the synthesized preview image through the display. Other embodiments may be provided.

Electronic device for providing shooting mode based on virtual character and operation method thereof

An electronic device includes a camera, a display, and a processor. The processor displays a user interface including menu items supporting entry into an edit mode for a body part of an emoji displayed on the display. The processor captures a user face image using the camera, upon a user requesting facial expression edit mode from the interface. The processor generates a facial expression motion file from the user face image. The processor captures a user body image using the camera upon the user requesting body motion edit mode. The processor generates a body motion file from the user body image. The processor adjusts sync for combining the generated facial expression motion file and body motion file. The processor generates a customized emoji sticker on which user facial expression and body movement are reflected by combining the sync-adjusted facial expression motion file and body motion file.

Electronic device and method for generating user avatar-based emoji sticker

Disclosed is an electronic device including a camera, a display, a sensor, a memory, and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to display an avatar corresponding to an external object included in one or more images acquired using the camera through the display, determine at least one characteristic of the avatar based on avatar information stored in the memory, control the avatar displayed through the display based on at least one configuration value of configuration information stored in the memory, determine a rotational angle of the electronic device in a first mode of the electronic device, determine whether the rotational angle in the first mode is within a first threshold rotation range, and reversely rotate at least a portion of an action or a position of the avatar by the rotational angle in the first mode if the rotational angle in the first mode is within the first threshold rotation range.

Electronic device for displaying avatar corresponding to external object according to change in position of external object

Disclosed is an electronic device including a camera, a display, a sensor, and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to acquire one or more images including an external object through the camera, identify a position of the external object relative to the electronic device through at least one of the camera and the sensor, the position of the external object including a distance between the external object and the electronic device, determine whether the distance between the external object and the electronic device is within a threshold distance range, display the avatar corresponding to the external object based on the identified position of the external object through the display, if the distance between the external object and the electronic device is within the threshold distance range, wherein a size of the avatar is determined based on the distance between the external object and the electronic device, and display a specified avatar image through the display, if the distance between the external object and the electronic device is less than or equal to a lower limit of the threshold distance range.

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes an avatar and an operating method thereof. The electronic device includes a display, and at least one processor operatively coupled with the display, wherein the at least one processor is configured to detect a face in at least one image, determine a user avatar corresponding to the detected face, determine a region of both the face and at least one object related to the face, determine a size of the user avatar based on the determined region, and control the display to display the user avatar on the display by rendering the user avatar based on the determined size of the user avatar.

Electronic device for providing avatar and operating method thereof

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a camera, a display, a sensor, a memory, and a processor configured to display an avatar corresponding to an external object included in one or more images acquired using the camera through the display, identify a change in a position of the external object relative to the electronic device through at least one of the camera and the sensor, determine a viewpoint related to the displayed avatar based on the change in the position, and display the avatar based on the determined viewpoint, through the display.

Display screen or portion thereof with graphical user interface

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a camera, a display, and a processor. The processor implements the method, including capturing an image using a camera of the electronic device for animation of an avatar, the image including at least a part of a face of a user, analyzing, by a processor, a portion of the image including the at least the part of the face to determine whether an entirety of the face is captured within the image, and selecting a primary image or an alternative image for display of the avatar based on the determination, including: displaying the avatar on a display of the electronic device using the alternative image when less than the entirety of the face is captured within the image.

Method of controlling display of avatar and electronic device therefor

According to an embodiment, an electronic device comprises a camera, a display, and a processor configured to control the electronic device to: obtain a plurality of images including a first image and a second image corresponding to a user's face using the camera, display, on the display, a first avatar selected from among at least one 3D avatar including model information related to a motion and created based on 3D modeling, determine a degree of variation in at least some feature points among the plurality of feature points of the face based on a comparison between the plurality of feature points of the face included in each of the first image and the second image, determine a weight for at least some of a plurality of reference models related to a motion of the first avatar based at least on the degree of variation determined, and display, on the display, the first avatar on which the motion is performed based on the plurality of reference models and the weight.

Electronic device displaying avatar motion-performed as per movement of facial feature point and method for operating same

An electronic device includes a first battery; a coil; a communication circuit; a display; a memory; and at least one processor operably coupled to the first battery, the coil, the communication circuit, the display, and the memory. The memory may include multiple instructions configured to cause, while being executed, the at least processor to identify a first user input for activating a function of sharing power in the first battery; display a user interface (UI) indicating that the function has been activated on the display, based on the identification of the first user input; identify an external electronic device distinguished from the electronic device by using the communication circuit, while the UI is displayed; display a visual element indicating information regarding a second battery included in the identified external electronic device on the UI, based on the identification of the external electronic device; and output power in the first battery to the identified external electronic device through the coil, at least partially based on a second user input regarding the visual element.
