Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Providing Computer-Generated Experiences - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240103615 titled 'Devices, Methods, and Graphical User Interfaces for Providing Computer-Generated Experiences

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a computer system that displays graphical elements representing a user's status at different levels of immersion based on visual properties.

  • The system displays graphical elements with a first appearance at a first level of immersion, based on a first set of visual properties and the user's status.
  • At a second level of immersion, the system displays the graphical elements with a second appearance, based on a second set of visual properties and the user's status.
  • When criteria for changing the level of immersion are met, the system changes the display of virtual elements and graphical elements from the first level to the second level.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in virtual reality systems, gaming interfaces, and personalized user interfaces.

Problems Solved

This technology allows for a more immersive and personalized user experience by dynamically changing the appearance of graphical elements based on the user's status.

Benefits

- Enhanced user engagement - Personalized user experience - Improved visual representation of user status

Potential Commercial Applications

"Dynamic Immersive Display Technology for User Interfaces"

Possible Prior Art

There may be prior art related to dynamic visual changes in user interfaces based on user status, but specific examples are not provided in the abstract.

Unanswered Questions

How does the system detect the criteria for changing the level of immersion?

The abstract does not specify the methods or algorithms used to detect when to switch between levels of immersion.

What types of visual properties are used to determine the appearance of the graphical elements?

The abstract mentions visual properties but does not detail what specific properties are considered or how they influence the appearance of the elements.


Original Abstract Submitted

a computer system displays one or more graphical elements that represent a status associated with a user, including: at a first level of immersion, displaying the one or more graphical elements with a first appearance that is based on a first set of one or more visual properties and the status associated with the user; and at a second level of immersion, displaying the one or more graphical elements with a second appearance that is based on a second set of one or more visual properties and the status associated with the user. in response to detecting that first criteria for changing the current level of immersion are met, changing display of one or more virtual elements from the first level of immersion to the second level of immersion and changing display of the one or more graphical elements with the first appearance to the second appearance.
