SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LANGUAGE SKILL DEVELOPMENT USING A VIRTUAL REALITY ENVIRONMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240296748 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LANGUAGE SKILL DEVELOPMENT USING A VIRTUAL REALITY ENVIRONMENT
The patent application describes systems and methods for bidirectional communication in a virtual reality environment.
- Generating a virtual reality environment for a first user
- Receiving a station selection user input to select a first language learning station
- Providing a first avatar in the first language learning station in response to the user input
- Receiving communication from the first user in a target spoken language
- Providing the communication to a first artificial intelligence model
- Receiving a response from the AI model in the target spoken language
- Outputting the response via the first avatar
- Providing language assistance corresponding to the response in the natural spoken language of the first user
Potential Applications: - Language learning and practice in a virtual reality setting - Cross-cultural communication and interaction - Virtual reality-based customer service training
Problems Solved: - Facilitating language learning through immersive experiences - Enhancing communication skills in a virtual environment - Providing personalized language assistance
Benefits: - Improved language learning outcomes - Enhanced user engagement and interaction - Real-time feedback and support in language practice
Commercial Applications: - Virtual reality language learning platforms - Customer service training simulations - Cross-cultural communication tools
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this technology improve language learning outcomes compared to traditional methods? 2. What are the potential limitations of using virtual reality for language practice and communication?
Original Abstract Submitted
systems and methods for bidirectional communication in a virtual reality environment are disclosed. the systems and methods include: generating the virtual reality environment for a first user; receiving a station selection user input to select a first language learning station; in response to the station selection user input, providing, via a graphic in the virtual reality environment, a first avatar in the first language learning station; receiving a communication from the first user in a target spoken language; providing the communication to a first artificial intelligence model; receiving, from the first artificial intelligence model, a response to the communication in the target spoken language; outputting, via the first avatar, the response in the target spoken language; and providing, via the graphic in the virtual reality environment, language assistance corresponding to the response in a natural spoken language of the first user.
