2D AND 3D TRANSITIONS FOR RENDERINGS OF USERS PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNICATION SESSIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17824869 titled '2D AND 3D TRANSITIONS FOR RENDERINGS OF USERS PARTICIPATING IN COMMUNICATION SESSIONS

Simplified Explanation

- This patent application describes systems for transitioning a user interface arrangement from displaying a 2D image of a user to rendering a 3D representation of the user. - The system starts with a user interface that shows a rendering of the user based on a 2D image file. - When the system receives an input, it transitions the display from the 2D image to a 3D representation of the user. - To display the 3D representation, the system uses permission data and a 3D model that defines the position and orientation of the user. - The system allows users to switch between different viewing modes to interact with content using the most suitable hardware.


Original Abstract Submitted

Systems for transitioning a user interface arrangement from a display of a two-dimensional image of a user to a rendering of a three-dimensional representation of the user is provided. A system can start with a UI including a rendering of a user that is based on a 2D image file. The system can receive an input that is configured to cause the system to transition the display of the rendering of the 2D image of the select user to a rendering of the three-dimensional representation of the select user. To display the rendering of the 3D representation of the select user, the system uses permission data and a three-dimensional model defining a position and orientation to display the 3D representation of the user. The system allows users to switch between viewing modes to allow users to interact with content using the most effective type of hardware.
