Displaying Representations of Environments - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240345697 titled 'Displaying Representations of Environments
The method described in the patent application involves displaying diorama-view representations from corresponding viewing vectors, each representing an enhanced reality (ER) environment. These representations are associated with sets of ER world coordinates that define the ER environments.
- The diorama-view representations include objects arranged according to specific ER world coordinates.
- The method allows for changing the display of a diorama-view representation in response to user input, transitioning between different viewing vectors while maintaining the arrangement of objects based on their original coordinates.
Potential Applications: - Augmented reality gaming - Virtual tours of real estate properties - Training simulations for various industries
Problems Solved: - Providing a seamless transition between different viewing perspectives in an ER environment - Maintaining object placement consistency across different viewing vectors
Benefits: - Enhanced user experience in ER environments - Improved interaction with virtual objects - Increased immersion in virtual scenarios
Commercial Applications: Title: "Enhanced Reality Display Technology for Immersive Experiences" This technology could be utilized in the development of interactive educational tools, immersive entertainment experiences, and advanced training simulations for industries such as healthcare and engineering.
Prior Art: Research into similar technologies such as virtual reality headsets and augmented reality applications may provide insights into the development of this diorama-view representation method.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in ER technology, particularly in the areas of object manipulation and user interaction within virtual environments.
Questions about Enhanced Reality Display Technology: 1. How does this method improve user engagement in ER environments? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology on a large scale?
Overall, the patent application outlines a method for displaying diorama-view representations in ER environments, offering a unique approach to enhancing user interactions with virtual objects.
Original Abstract Submitted
a method includes displaying diorama-view representations from corresponding viewing vectors. the diorama-view representations respectively correspond to enhanced reality (er) environments. each of the diorama-view representations is associated with a respective set of er world coordinates that characterizes a respective er environment. the diorama-view representations include a first diorama-view representation displayed from a first viewing vector. the first diorama-view representation includes a first one or more of er objects arranged according to a first set of er world coordinates. the method includes detecting an input associated with the first diorama-view representation, and in response thereto, changing display of the first diorama-view representation from the first viewing vector to a second viewing vector while maintaining the first one or more er objects arranged according to the first set of er world coordinates.
