The present application discloses a method for operating a component, an electronic device, a storage medium and a program product, relating to the field of artificial intelligence technology, such as, the computer vision technology, the image processing technology and the augmented reality technology, the method includes: in response to a drawing operation on an operable component in a three-dimensional virtual space, displaying a drawn two-dimensional pattern on the operable component; in response to a model generating operation on the operable component, processing the two-dimensional pattern to generate a three-dimensional model; and displaying the three-dimensional model in the three-dimensional virtual space. In the solution provided by the present disclosure, an operable component which may be applied in a virtual space is provided, and a user may draw a pattern in the operable component, thus enabling a system to generate a three-dimensional model corresponding to the pattern.

When a first user interface is chosen according to a choice instruction based on an operation input, a two-dimensional user interface object indicating an arrangement range of decorative items is displayed, and decorative items are disposed at locations in the range designated according to an operation input. When a second user interface is chosen, a three-dimensional user interface object indicating an arrangement range of decorative items is displayed, and decorative items are disposed at locations in the range designated according to an operation input. Types and arrangement of the decorative items on the two-dimensional object, or types and arrangement of the decorative items on the three-dimensional object, are stored into a storage medium according to a determination instruction based on an operation input.

An entertainment system includes: a robot device capable of acting in an autonomous action mode in a real world; a server device configured to cause a virtual robot associated with the robot device to act in a virtual world; and a terminal device capable of displaying an image of the virtual world in which the virtual robot acts. The server device provides the image of the virtual world to the terminal device. The server device transmits a request from the virtual robot to the robot device. When the robot device acquires the request from the virtual robot, the robot device acts in a collaboration action mode in which collaboration is made with the virtual robot.

A server device that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a memory and a processor. The processor can identify first and second players present at first and second physical locations, to identify first and second boundary and topographical information of the first and second physical locations, to map the first and second boundary and topographical information of the first and second physical locations to a virtual gaming space, to capture first and second position and orientation information for the first and second players, to map the first and second position and orientation information to the virtual gaming space, to generate first and second virtual players corresponding to the first and second players, and to transmit to first goggles information representative of the second virtual player for display superimposed onto a transparent viewing apparatus for viewing of the virtual gaming space. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
