Original Abstract Submitted
embodiments of present invention provide a method of taking photo in a virtual reality environment. the method includes defining a group that includes multiple entities; detecting multiple directions that the multiple entities are facing based upon orientations of the multiple entities; identifying multiple extension lines that start from the multiple entities in the group and extend in the multiple directions; identifying one or more intersections associated with the multiple directions; identifying one or more connection lines that connect a center of the group to the one or more intersections; defining a camera line based on the one or more connection lines; determining a camera location along the camera line; taking an image of virtual view of the multiple entities by a virtual camera; and providing the image as a photo to the multiple entities in the group. a non-transitory storage medium and a computing environment are also provided.
