Abstract

This paper explores the significance of flying apsaras in Dunhuang frescoes from the Sui and Tang
Dynasties and their application in visual communication design using computer vision. Through the
analysis of modeling, costume, and color characteristics of the flying apsaras, this study aims to provide
theoretical and artistic research value for subsequent design. A range of research methods, including
literature induction, field investigation, and information research, is employed to collect and analyze
data on the flying apsaras in Dunhuang frescoes. The findings highlight the influence of Buddhism and
Dunhuang on traditional Chinese culture and emphasize the need to integrate traditional Chinese culture
into modern design, particularly in brand building and pattern design.
