Desarrollo de una aplicación para la generación de ilustraciones 2D de figuras humanas utilizando recursos basados en inteligencia artificial y su efecto en los tiempos de creación.

Abstract

The 2D illustrations of human figures are a widely used medium in presentations, informational materials, and signage due to their ability to clearly represent scenes and concepts. However, despite their apparent visual simplicity, their creation often requires intermediate or advanced knowledge of digital editing or illustration tools, making them difficult for users without prior experience. To facilitate access, an application was developed for generating 2D illustrations of human figures using artificial intelligence-based resources. The tool incorporates a 2D model and automates repetitive and complex processes. Development was carried out using the Kanban methodology and Python as the primary language. Pygame was used for the model's interface and interaction, while MediaPipe was used as the AI component for capturing and transferring poses from reference photographs. The results showed an 85% reduction in the time required to generate an illustration compared to a traditional workflow using various tools, as well as a significant simplification of the creative process. The application allows users to adjust the model's position, import a photograph to replicate its pose, customize the character's appearance, and export the resulting illustration with a transparent background. The project demonstrated that integrating artificial intelligence techniques with simplified interfaces can substantially optimize the generation of 2D illustrations, making it accessible to inexperienced users and reducing both the complexity and time required for image creation.
