Environmentally Aware Gestures - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18367146 titled 'Environmentally Aware Gestures
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a method for presenting a scene where a virtual character interacts with objects in a physical environment displayed on a device.
- Display virtual character in a physical environment in a three-dimensional coordinate system.
- Determine object location in the physical environment.
- Display virtual character performing a gesture based on the object location.
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in virtual reality gaming, training simulations, and interactive storytelling experiences.
Problems Solved
This technology allows for more immersive and interactive experiences by enabling virtual characters to interact with objects in a realistic manner.
Benefits
Enhanced user engagement, improved realism in virtual environments, and increased interactivity in digital experiences.
Potential Commercial Applications
Enhancing User Engagement in Virtual Reality Experiences
Original Abstract Submitted
In one implementation, a method of presenting a scene is performed at a device including a display, one or more processors, and non-transitory memory. The method includes displaying, on the display, a virtual character in association with a physical environment at a character location in a three-dimensional coordinate system of the physical environment. The method includes determining, for an object, an object location in the three-dimensional coordinate system of the physical environment. The method includes displaying, on the display, the virtual character at the character location performing a gesture based on the object location.
