REAL-TIME PREVIEW OF CONNECTABLE OBJECTS IN A PHYSICALLY-MODELED VIRTUAL SPACE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240329796 titled 'REAL-TIME PREVIEW OF CONNECTABLE OBJECTS IN A PHYSICALLY-MODELED VIRTUAL SPACE
The abstract describes a system within virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and/or mixed reality (MR) environments that allows users to connect two or more connectable objects together, which can be real, virtual, or a combination of both. A preview system is included in these systems to show users a preview of the connection between the objects before they are connected, including a representation of the connected state and an indication of its validity.
- The system enables users to connect connectable objects in VR, AR, and/or MR environments.
- Users can connect real, virtual, or mixed objects together.
- A preview system provides a preview of the connection process before it is completed.
- The preview includes a representation of the connected state and its validity indication.
- The system continuously models the physical connection process while displaying the preview to the user.
Potential Applications: - Gaming and entertainment industries for immersive experiences. - Industrial design and prototyping for visualizing and testing connections. - Educational purposes for interactive learning experiences.
Problems Solved: - Allows users to visualize and test connections before physically making them. - Enhances user experience by providing a preview of the connection process. - Facilitates the connection of various types of objects in virtual environments.
Benefits: - Improved user interaction with connectable objects. - Enhanced user engagement and immersion in VR, AR, and MR environments. - Streamlined design and prototyping processes for various industries.
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Virtual Connection System for Various Industries" This technology can be utilized in industries such as gaming, design, education, and more to enhance user experiences, streamline processes, and improve overall efficiency.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the preview system in VR, AR, and MR environments benefit users? 2. What are the potential limitations of connecting objects in virtual environments?
Original Abstract Submitted
virtual reality (vr), augmented reality (ar), and/or mixed reality (mr) systems may enable one or more users to connect two or more connectable objects together. these connectable objects may be real objects from the user's environment, virtual objects, or a combination thereof. a preview system may be included as a part of the vr, ar, and/or mr systems that provide a preview of the connection between the connectable objects prior to the user(s) connecting the connectable objects. the preview may include a representation of the connectable objects in a connected state along with an indication of whether the connected state is valid or invalid. the preview system may continuously physically model the connectable objects while simultaneously displaying a preview of the connection process to the user of the vr, ar, or mr system.
