METHOD FOR PERFORMING VIRTUAL USER INTERACTION, AND DEVICE THEREFOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18099441 titled 'METHOD FOR PERFORMING VIRTUAL USER INTERACTION, AND DEVICE THEREFOR

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electronic device that includes a communication unit, a camera, and a processor. The device is capable of generating a virtual input interface based on certain conditions being met. It can acquire information about the movement of an input device and transmit feedback information about that movement to the input device.

  • The electronic device includes a communication unit, camera, and processor.
  • The communication unit can communicate with an input device.
  • The processor determines if conditions for generating a virtual input interface are met.
  • If the conditions are met, the virtual input interface is generated.
  • The device can acquire information about the movement of the input device through the communication unit and/or camera.
  • Feedback information about the movement of the input device on the virtual input interface is transmitted to the input device.

Potential Applications

  • Gaming consoles or devices that can create virtual input interfaces for enhanced gameplay.
  • Virtual reality or augmented reality systems that can track the movement of input devices and provide feedback.
  • Smart home devices that can generate virtual input interfaces for controlling various functions.

Problems Solved

  • Simplifies the process of generating virtual input interfaces based on specific conditions being met.
  • Provides a way to acquire information about the movement of an input device.
  • Enables the transmission of feedback information about the movement of the input device on the virtual input interface.

Benefits

  • Enhanced user experience by providing virtual input interfaces.
  • Improved control and interaction with electronic devices.
  • Increased flexibility and versatility in input methods.


Original Abstract Submitted

Disclosed is an electronic device comprising: a communication unit comprising communication circuitry configured to communicate with an input device; a camera; and at least one processor operably connected to the communication unit and the camera, wherein the at least one processor is configured to: determine whether a condition for generating a virtual input interface is satisfied, generate the virtual input interface on based on the determination, acquire information about the movement of the input device through the communication unit and/or the camera, and transmit, to the input device, feedback information about the movement of the input device, generated on the virtual input interface, through the communication unit.
