VOICE-BASED AUGMENTED REALITY LOCOMOTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18301368 titled 'VOICE-BASED AUGMENTED REALITY LOCOMOTION

The patent application describes techniques for voice-based augmented reality locomotion.

  • Receiving a linguistic input and analyzing it to determine a label and duration.
  • Converting the label into a heading and the duration into a magnitude in a virtual environment.
  • Merging the heading and magnitude into a vector in the virtual environment.

Potential Applications: - Virtual reality gaming - Navigation systems for the visually impaired - Training simulations for various industries

Problems Solved: - Enhancing user experience in virtual environments - Providing a more intuitive way to control movement in augmented reality

Benefits: - Improved immersion in virtual environments - Enhanced accessibility for users with disabilities - Simplified navigation in complex virtual spaces

Commercial Applications: Voice-controlled virtual reality systems for entertainment, training, and navigation markets.

Questions about voice-based augmented reality locomotion: 1. How does this technology improve user experience in virtual environments? 2. What are the potential limitations of voice-based locomotion in augmented reality systems?


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques are described with respect to a system, method, and computer product for voice-based augmented reality locomotion. An associated method includes receiving a first linguistic input; and determining a label and a duration associated with the linguistic input based on an analysis of the first linguistic input. The method further including converting the label into a heading and the duration into a magnitude in a virtual environment; and merging the heading and magnitude in a vector in the virtual environment.
