Detailed Description
To make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Before explaining the embodiments of the present invention in detail, an application scenario of the embodiments of the present invention will be described. As VR technology evolves, more and more applications start to support VR modes. When a user operates an interface in an application in a VR mode, the user may need to switch to a non-VR mode for inconvenient operation, or to switch from the non-VR mode to the VR mode for better experience, in which case, the terminal often needs to switch between the VR mode and the non-VR mode according to the switching operation of the user.
In the related art, when the terminal switches between the VR mode and the non-VR mode, when a switching instruction is detected, the currently displayed interface may be switched to a designated interface for display, and then, the terminal needs to display corresponding content according to a selection operation of a user. That is, if the interface currently displayed by the terminal is not an interface of an application in the VR mode, when the terminal detects a switching instruction, the terminal switches to a designated interface in the VR mode, and the designated interface is not an interface of the application in the VR mode. Based on the above description, in the related art, when the terminal switches between the VR mode and the non-VR mode, because the terminal needs to switch to the designated interface first, the interface before switching cannot be continued to be displayed, which causes discontinuous display of the interface, and after the terminal is switched to the designated interface, the interface information displayed before switching is lost, which brings great inconvenience to the user.
In order to solve the above problem, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for switching between a VR mode and a non-VR mode, where in the method, a terminal may obtain an interface identifier of a currently displayed interface when detecting a switching instruction, and then, the terminal may obtain, according to the interface identifier, a target interface identifier from a stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier, and perform mode switching according to the target interface identifier. Therefore, after the VR mode and the non-VR mode are switched, the terminal can continue to display the interface displayed before switching, the problem that interface information is lost before switching due to the fact that a user jumps to a designated page during mode switching in the related art is solved, and the continuity of the display interface is guaranteed.
Fig. 1 is a system architecture diagram of a method for switching between a VR mode and a non-VR mode according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in fig. 1, the system includes a terminal 101, a VR device 102, and a server 103. The terminal 101 is connected to the VR device 102, and the server 103 is connected to the terminal 101. The user may interact with the terminal 101 through the VR device 102, and after receiving the behavior parameter generated by the user operation and sent by the VR device 102, the terminal 101 may respond based on the behavior parameter. In addition, when detecting the switching instruction, the terminal 101 may obtain an interface identifier of the currently displayed interface, and obtain a target interface identifier from the stored corresponding relationship according to the interface identifier. After the target interface identifier is obtained, the terminal 101 may obtain a corresponding interface and content from the server 103 according to the target interface identifier to display.
The terminal 101 may be a mobile terminal such as a smart phone or a smart tablet, or may be a terminal such as a desktop computer or a laptop computer. VR device 102 is a device that can implement VR functionality, such as VR helmets, VR glasses, etc. The server 103 may be a single server or a server cluster.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating a method of switching between a VR mode and a non-VR mode, as shown in fig. 2, for use in a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment, and includes the following steps.
In step 201, when a switching instruction is detected, an interface identifier of a currently displayed interface is acquired.
In step 202, based on the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface, a target interface identifier is obtained from the stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier.
In step 203, mode switching is performed based on the target interface identification.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal may obtain the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface when detecting the switching instruction, and then, the terminal may obtain the target interface identifier from the stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier according to the interface identifier, and perform mode switching according to the target interface identifier. Therefore, after the VR mode and the non-VR mode are switched, the terminal can continue to display the interface displayed before switching, the problem that interface information is lost before switching due to the fact that a user jumps to a designated page during mode switching in the related art is solved, and the continuity of the display interface is guaranteed.
Optionally, before obtaining the target interface identifier from the stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier based on the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface, the method further includes:
acquiring interface identifications of a plurality of VR interfaces in a VR mode and interface identifications of a plurality of non-VR interfaces corresponding to the plurality of VR interfaces in a non-VR mode;
and storing the interface identifications of the multiple VR interfaces and the interface identifications of the multiple non-VR interfaces in a one-to-one correspondence manner to obtain the corresponding relation between the VR interface identifications and the non-VR interface identifications.
Optionally, the mode switching is performed based on the target interface identifier, including:
when the target interface identification is the interface identification in the non-VR mode, acquiring a non-VR interface corresponding to the target interface identification;
acquiring content displayed in a VR interface corresponding to an application to which a non-VR interface belongs;
and displaying the acquired content on a non-VR interface.
Optionally, the mode switching is performed based on the target interface identifier, including:
when the target interface identification is the interface identification in the VR mode, acquiring a VR interface corresponding to the target interface identification;
acquiring content displayed in a corresponding non-VR interface by an application to which the VR interface belongs;
and displaying the acquired content on a VR interface.
All the above optional technical solutions can be combined arbitrarily to form optional embodiments of the present disclosure, and the embodiments of the present disclosure are not described in detail again.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of switching between a VR mode and a non-VR mode, which is used in a terminal according to an exemplary embodiment and includes the steps of:
in step 301, interface identifiers of multiple VR interfaces in a VR mode and interface identifiers of multiple non-VR interfaces corresponding to the multiple VR interfaces in a non-VR mode are obtained.
In general, an application running on a terminal may include a plurality of interfaces, where each interface of the plurality of interfaces may correspond to a corresponding interface identifier. When the application supports the VR mode, a plurality of interfaces displayed by the application in the VR mode may be referred to as VR interfaces, a plurality of interfaces displayed in the non-VR mode may be referred to as non-VR interfaces, and the non-VR interfaces may have corresponding non-VR interface identifiers, and the VR interfaces may also have corresponding VR interface identifiers.
When detecting that the application supports the VR mode, the terminal may obtain, from application data of the application, a plurality of VR interface identifiers of the application in the VR mode and interface identifiers of a plurality of non-VR interfaces corresponding to the plurality of VR interfaces in the non-VR mode. Of course, the terminal may also obtain interface identifiers of multiple VR interfaces and interface identifiers of non-VR interfaces of the application from the server corresponding to the application according to the application identifier of the application.
It should be noted that the interface identifier may be a character that can uniquely identify the interface, such as a name of the interface, for example, the interface identifier of the VR interface may be formed by splicing the name of the interface and the VR character, and the interface identifier of the non-VR interface may be formed by splicing the name of the interface and the 2D character.
Further, in order to reduce system resources required to be occupied when the correspondence is stored subsequently, for an application supporting the VR mode, the terminal may only obtain a VR application identifier of the application in the VR mode and a corresponding non-VR application identifier in the non-VR mode.
In step 302, the interface identifiers of the multiple VR interfaces and the interface identifiers of the multiple non-VR interfaces are stored in a one-to-one correspondence manner, so as to obtain a correspondence relationship between the VR interface identifiers and the non-VR interface identifiers.
After the terminal obtains the interface identifiers of the multiple VR interfaces and the interface identifiers of the multiple non-VR interfaces of the application, the terminal can store the interface identifiers of the multiple VR interfaces and the interface identifiers of the multiple non-VR interfaces of the application in a one-to-one correspondence manner, so that the corresponding relationship between the VR interface identifiers and the non-VR interface identifiers is obtained.
The terminal may directly store the corresponding relationship in the application data of the application, and of course, the terminal may store a plurality of corresponding relationships of a plurality of applications supporting the VR mode in a unified manner. When the unified storage is performed, in order to quickly and conveniently acquire the desired interface identifier from the corresponding relationship in the following process, the terminal may correspondingly store the application identifier of each application and the corresponding relationship.
Further, when the terminal acquires the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier applied in the VR mode, the terminal may store the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier in a one-to-one correspondence manner, so as to obtain a correspondence relationship between the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier.
Through steps 301 and 302, the terminal may obtain a corresponding relationship between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier, and then, when the terminal starts the application, the terminal may switch the application between the VR mode and the non-VR mode in the following manner.
In step 303, when a switching instruction is detected, an interface identifier of a currently displayed interface is acquired.
For an application supporting the VR mode, after the terminal starts the application, the terminal may detect in real time whether a switching instruction triggered by a switching operation of a user is received. When the terminal detects the switching instruction, the terminal can acquire the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface. The switching operation of the user may be to disconnect the VR device from the terminal, or to remove the bound VR headset and the mobile terminal.
In addition, the terminal may obtain the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface from the interface data of the currently displayed interface. Of course, if the correspondence between the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier is obtained through steps 301 and 302, in this step, the terminal may also obtain the application identifier of the application in the current mode.
For example, assuming that the terminal starts an application supporting the VR mode in the 2D mode as a social application and the currently displayed interface is a friend chat interface, after the terminal starts the social application, whether a switching instruction is received may be detected in real time, and after receiving the switching instruction, the terminal may obtain an interface identifier of the chat interface of the social application in the 2D mode from interface data of the chat interface. Of course, the terminal may also directly obtain the application identifier of the social application in the 2D mode.
Further, after the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface is acquired, the terminal may further store the display content or the display progress in the currently displayed interface, so that when the mode is switched subsequently, the terminal may continue to display in the switched mode according to the stored display content or the display progress.
In step 304, based on the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface, a target interface identifier is obtained from the stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier.
After the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface is obtained, the terminal can obtain the target interface identifier from the stored corresponding relationship between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier. And the target interface identification is the interface identification corresponding to the interface identification of the currently displayed interface. And if the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface is the VR interface identifier in the VR mode, the target interface identifier is the non-VR interface identifier corresponding to the VR interface identifier of the currently displayed interface. And if the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface is the non-VR interface identifier in the non-VR mode, the target interface identifier is the VR interface identifier corresponding to the non-VR interface identifier of the currently displayed interface.
It should be noted that, based on the foregoing description, the correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier may be stored in application data of the application, or may be stored in a unified manner. Therefore, if the corresponding relationship between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier is stored in the application data of the application, the terminal may obtain the target interface identifier from the application data of the application to which the currently displayed interface belongs according to the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface. If the corresponding relation between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier is uniformly stored, the terminal can acquire the application identifier of the application to which the currently displayed interface belongs, and then acquire the target interface identifier from the stored corresponding relation according to the application identifier and the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface.
Further, if the terminal stores the corresponding relationship between the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier of the application, the terminal may obtain the corresponding target application identifier from the stored corresponding relationship between the VR application identifier and the non-VR application identifier of the application through the application identifier of the application to which the currently displayed interface belongs, which is obtained in step 303.
In step 305, a mode switch is made based on the target interface identification.
After the target interface identifier is acquired, the terminal can switch between the VR mode and the non-VR mode based on the target interface identifier. Since the target interface identifier may be an interface identifier in the VR mode or an interface identifier in the non-VR mode, that is, it is currently possible to switch from the non-VR mode to the VR mode or switch from the VR mode to the non-VR mode, the terminal may complete mode switching in the following two ways.
The first mode is as follows: when the target interface identifier is an interface identifier in a non-VR mode, the terminal may obtain a non-VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier, and then, the terminal may obtain content displayed in the VR interface corresponding to an application to which the non-VR interface belongs, and display the obtained content in the non-VR interface.
If the target interface identifier is an interface identifier in the non-VR mode, that is, the current switching is from the VR mode to the non-VR mode, at this time, the terminal may obtain, according to the obtained interface identifier in the non-VR mode, a non-VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier from the stored application data. Certainly, in order to save system resources, the terminal may not store corresponding application data, and in this case, the terminal may obtain the non-VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier from the server corresponding to the application to which the target interface identifier belongs.
After the terminal acquires the non-VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier, because the interface is acquired only and the content displayed in the interface is not acquired, in order that the terminal can continue to display the content displayed before switching after switching to the non-VR mode, the terminal can acquire the content currently displayed in the corresponding VR interface from the application to which the non-VR interface belongs, or the terminal can record the display progress of the content currently displayed in the corresponding VR interface. After the content displayed in the corresponding VR interface or the display progress is acquired, the terminal may display the acquired content in the non-VR interface, or the terminal may acquire the corresponding content from the server of the application according to the display progress to display the content in the acquired non-VR interface, so as to complete switching from the VR mode to the non-VR mode.
For example, assuming that the currently displayed interface is a chat interface of a social application, and a user inputs a reply message through the terminal on the chat interface, but the reply message is not sent, at this time, if the terminal receives a switching instruction, the terminal may store the display content in the currently displayed interface in application data of the social application, further, the terminal may store the reply message as a draft, and then, the terminal may obtain a target interface identifier, that is, an interface identifier of a chat interface of the social application in a non-VR mode, according to the interface identifier corresponding to the chat interface of the social application in the VR mode. After the target interface identifier is obtained, the terminal can obtain the chat interface of the social application in the non-VR mode according to the target interface identifier, and obtain the recently stored display content and draft from the application data of the social application. Then, the terminal may display the acquired display content and the draft in a chat interface of the social application in the non-VR mode, so as to complete switching from the VR mode to the non-VR mode.
For another example, if the currently displayed interface is a playing interface of a video application, after the switching instruction is detected, the terminal may store related information such as a playing progress in the currently played interface, and then, when the terminal acquires the target interface identifier, the terminal may acquire the playing interface of the video application in the non-VR mode, and acquire, according to the stored related information such as the playing progress, the playing content in the non-VR mode corresponding to the playing progress from the server corresponding to the video application, so as to continue playing in the playing interface in the non-VR mode.
Further, based on the foregoing description, if the obtained target application identifier is not the target interface identifier, the terminal may start the application in the non-VR mode according to the target application identifier, and then the terminal may obtain the latest display content of the application in the VR mode, and continue to display in the application in the non-VR mode according to the obtained display content.
The second mode is as follows: when the target interface identifier is an interface identifier in the VR mode, the terminal may obtain a VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier, and then, the terminal may obtain content displayed in a corresponding non-VR interface by an application to which the VR interface belongs, and display the obtained content in the VR interface.
If the target interface identifier is an interface identifier in the VR mode, that is, the current switching is from the non-VR mode to the VR mode, at this time, the terminal may obtain, according to the obtained interface identifier in the VR mode, a VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier from the stored application data. Or, if the terminal does not store the corresponding application data, the terminal may also obtain the VR interface corresponding to the target interface identifier from the server corresponding to the application to which the target interface identifier belongs.
After the VR interface is obtained, because the interface is obtained only and the content displayed in the interface is not obtained, the terminal may further obtain the display content currently displayed in the corresponding non-VR interface from the application to which the VR interface belongs, or the terminal may record the display progress of the content currently displayed in the corresponding non-VR interface. After the content displayed in the corresponding non-VR interface or the display progress is acquired, the terminal may display the acquired content in the VR interface, or the terminal may acquire the corresponding content from the server of the application according to the display progress to display the content in the acquired VR interface, so as to complete switching from the non-VR mode to the VR mode.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal may obtain the interface identifier of the currently displayed interface when detecting the switching instruction, and then, the terminal may obtain the target interface identifier from the stored correspondence between the VR interface identifier and the non-VR interface identifier according to the interface identifier, and perform mode switching according to the target interface identifier. Therefore, after the VR mode and the non-VR mode are switched, the terminal can continue to display the interface displayed before switching, the problem that interface information is lost before switching due to the fact that a user jumps to a designated page during mode switching in the related art is solved, and the continuity of the display interface is guaranteed.
