Systems and methods for guiding actors using a motion capture reference system
The specification discloses methods and systems for enabling users to configure one or more actuators in data communication with a user's computing device and positioned on a prop to generate and deliver feedback to a motion capture actor engaged with the prop. At least one graphical interface in the computing device is configured to enable the user to configure occurrence of at least one event during a scene, associate a time and duration of occurrence to the at least one event within an overall duration of the scene, select the prop, assign the at least one event and the associated time and duration of occurrence to at least one actuator on the prop, configure at least one parameter for the feedback, and activate the at least one actuator to generate and deliver the feedback to the actor in response to an occurrence of the at least one event.
Methods, Apparatuses, Devices And Storage Media For Controlling Game States
A method, an apparatus, a devices and a storage medium for controlling game states is provided in the disclosure, wherein the method includes: obtaining a video stream of a game area; performing a detection on the video stream to determine a number of game items and identification information of each of the game items in the game area; in a case that the number of the game items in the game area reaches a first predetermined value, generating a game result according to the number of the game items, the identification information of each of the game items, and a preset game result generation condition; and in response to that the game result is generated, switching the game to a result processing state.
METHOD FOR BROADCASTING GAMEPLAY AND METHOD FOR JOINING GAME
A method of broadcasting a game includes the following steps. During a game process, a server receives videos and audios that are obtained by a plurality of first computers and generates a first video file. The first video file is sent to a second computer. The second computer displays a first video file through a monitor, wherein a screen of the first video file does not include contents of concealed hand tiles of the player. A method for joining a game includes the following steps. The server receives a starting command from a starting computer to open a new game, wherein the starting command includes at least one bidding condition of the new game. The server receives a bidding command of a participating computer, and then determines that bidding price of the bidding command is complied with the bidding condition, the participating computer could be joined into the new game.
Streaming mixed-reality environments between multiple devices
An immersive content presentation system can capture the motion or position of a performer in a real-world environment. A game engine can be modified to receive the position or motion of the performer and identify predetermined gestures or positions that can be used to trigger actions in a 3-D virtual environment, such as generating a digital effect, transitioning virtual assets through an animation graph, adding new objects, and so forth. The use of the 3-D environment can be rendered and composited views can be generated. Information for constructing the composited views can be streamed to numerous display devices in many different physical locations using a customized communication protocol. Multiple real-world performers can interact with virtual objects through the game engine in a shared mixed-reality experience.
Systems and methods for augmented reality
An augmented reality viewer includes components, assemblies, and executable logic to provide a user with the perception of rich augmented reality experiences, including aspects of the aquatic world.
Scanning of 3D objects with a second screen device for insertion into a virtual environment
A method for inserting a virtual object into a virtual environment is provided, including: generating a scan of a real world object; processing the scan to identify a type of the real world object; based on the identified type of the real world object, generating a virtual object that resembles the real world object; based on the identified type of the real world object, assigning a functionality to the virtual object, the functionality defining an action capable of being performed by the virtual object in a virtual environment; deploying the virtual object in the virtual environment.
TARGET OBJECT CONTROLLING METHOD, APPARATUS, ELECTRONIC DEVICE, AND STORAGE MEDIUM
A target object controlling method, apparatus (2), electronic device, and storage medium. The method includes in response to a movement control operation triggered for a target object in a real scene image, determining a control direction corresponding to the movement control operation (101); obtaining a photographing direction of the real scene image (102); and controlling the target object to move in the real scene image according to the control direction and the photographing direction (103). The target object controlling method can effectively solve the problem in the prior art that when the photographing direction of the real scene image changes, a direction deviation occurs in controlling the target object to move in the real scene image, and can also effectively improve the operation performance of the target object in the real scene image, bringing a better manipulation experience for a user.
Collaborative augmented reality
Augmented reality presentations are provided at respective electronic devices. A first electronic device receives information relating to modification made to an augmented reality presentation at a second electronic device, and the first electronic device modifies the first augmented reality presentation in response to the information.

Method of creating a virtual game environment and interactive game system employing the method
The invention relates to a method of creating a virtual game environment. The method comprises: selecting one or more physical objects according to pre-determined physical properties; providing a physical model of the game environment/scene using the selected physical objects; scanning the physical model to obtain a digital three dimensional representation of the physical model including information on the pre-determined physical properties; converting the digital three-dimensional representation of the physical model into a virtual toy construction model made up of virtual toy construction elements; and defining game-controlling elements in the virtual toy construction model using information on the pre-determined physical properties, thereby creating the virtual game environment/scene. The invention further relates to an interactive game system including an implementation of the method.
