Hereinafter, a moving picture distribution system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the moving image distribution system 1 includes a client device 10, a server 20, and a studio unit 30. The client device 10, the server 20, and the studio unit 30 are connected to each other via the network 11 so that they can communicate with each other. The network 11 includes various networks such as a local area network and the Internet.

  In the moving image distribution system 1, the distributor creates a moving image using the studio unit 30. The animation includes animation of a character object based on the movement of the actor. The character object is an individual such as a virtual person. The created moving image is distributed from the server 20 to the client device 10 used by the viewing user. The distributor may be an actor, an operator of the studio unit 30, or any other person.

The outline of the studio unit 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The studio unit 30 includes a tracking system 31, a controller 40, a main display 41, a sub display 43 (display device), a microphone 44 (see FIG. 3), and a supporter computer 45.

  The tracking system 31 acquires information related to the movement of the actor A. The actor A is, for example, a human performing a performance, an animal, or a moving object. The actor A may be, for example, a robot that can move independently. There may be a plurality of actors in the studio room R.

  The tracking system 31 detects at least one of the direction and the position of the actor A. The tracking system 31 can detect the facial expression of the actor A, the position of the virtual camera set in the virtual space, and the like. For example, the tracking system 31 includes an external sensor 32, a mounting sensor 33, and a position specifying device 35. These are methods of tracking the mounting sensor 33 using an external sensor, and detect at least one of the orientation and position of the mounting sensor 33 mounted by the actor A.

  The mounting sensor 33 is mounted on the actor A. There may be a plurality of attachment sensors 33 attached to the actor A. For example, the mounting sensor 33 is mounted on the left wrist, the right wrist, the left instep, the right instep, the waist, and the top of the actor A.

For example, the viewpoint position sensor 36 may be supported by a stand, or may be supported by a gimbal or a stabilizer. The gimbal may be configured in a shape that can be gripped by an actor or other person. By supporting the viewpoint position sensor 36 with a gimbal or a stabilizer, camera shake can be suppressed.

  The camera 37 is arranged so as to be able to capture the face of the actor A. For example, the camera 37 is attached to the head, neck, or the like of the actor A, or is disposed in front of the actor A. The camera 37 continuously captures the actor A's face, acquires imaging data of the actor A's face, and transmits the imaging data to the server 20. The camera 37 may be a 3D camera that can detect the depth of a human face.

  The microphone 44 is arranged at a position where the sound emitted by the actor A can be collected. For example, the microphone 44 is attached to the head, neck, etc. of the actor A, or is disposed in front of the actor A. The microphone 44 transmits a signal corresponding to the sound to the server 20.

  The controller 40 is operated by the actor A. The controller 40 outputs a control signal corresponding to the operation of the actor A to the server 20. Moreover, the controller 40 may incorporate a sensor for autonomously specifying at least one of the direction and the position. For example, the controller 40 may include at least one of a multi-axis acceleration sensor, a gyroscope, and a geomagnetic sensor. The controller 40 may be configured to detect at least one of the direction and the position in cooperation with the external sensor 32 in addition to or instead of the above configuration.

The main display 41 and the sub display 43 are arranged at positions that can be viewed by the actor A.

  The supporter computer 45 is a computer used by an operator (referred to as “supporter” in this specification) next to the studio room. For example, since the room in which the supporter computer 45 is installed and the studio room R are separated by a glass window, the supporter using the supporter computer 45 can visually recognize the actor A. In the illustrated embodiment, the supporter B1 and the supporter B2 are present in the room. The supporter computer 45 outputs various types of information to the sub display 43 according to the operation of the supporter. In the present specification, when it is not necessary to distinguish between the supporter B1 and the supporter B2, the supporter B1 and the supporter B2 may be collectively referred to as “supporter”. The components and functions of the studio unit 30 shown in FIG. 2 are exemplary. The studio unit 30 applicable to the present invention may include various components not shown. For example, the studio unit 30 may include a projector. The projector can project a moving image distributed to the client device 10 or other client devices on a screen.

  The server 20 will be described with reference to FIG. The server 20 is configured to distribute a moving image including an animation of a character object based on an actor's motion to a viewing user. The character object included in this moving image may be motion controlled in the virtual space. The server 20 includes a computer processor 21, a communication I / F 22, and a storage 23 (storage medium).

  The computer processor 21 is an arithmetic unit that loads an operating system and various programs for realizing various functions from the storage 23 or other storages into a memory and executes instructions included in the loaded program. The computer processor 21 is, for example, a CPU, MPU, DSP, GPU, various arithmetic devices other than these, or a combination thereof. The computer processor 21 may realize at least a part of processing executed by itself by a circuit such as an ASIC, a PLD, an FPGA, or an MCU. In FIG. 3, the computer processor 21 is illustrated as a single component, but the computer processor 21 may be a collection of a plurality of physically separate computer processors. In this specification, the program described as being executed by the computer processor 21 or the instructions included in the program may be executed by a single computer processor or distributedly executed by a plurality of computer processors. Also good. Further, a program executed by the computer processor 21 or an instruction included in the program may be executed by a plurality of virtual computer processors.

  The computer processor 21 executes a computer-readable instruction included in the distribution program stored in the storage 23 or other storage, thereby the motion data processing unit 21A, the moving image generating unit 21B, the moving image distributing unit 21C, the user request It functions as a processing unit 21D, an object processing unit 21E, a user information management unit 21F, and a purchase processing unit 21G. At least a part of the functions realized by the computer processor 21 may be realized by a computer processor other than the computer processor 21 of the moving image distribution system 1. At least a part of the functions realized by the computer processor 21 may be realized by a computer processor included in a computer included in the studio unit 30, for example.

  The motion data processing unit 21A generates body motion data based on the tracking information detected by each of the mounting sensors 33 mounted on the actor. The body motion data is a digital representation of at least one of the position and orientation of each part of the actor's body in time series. The body motion data is generated as needed over time. For example, the body motion data may be generated every predetermined sampling interval.

  Further, the motion data processing unit 21A generates face motion data that is a time-series digital representation of the actor's face movement based on the shooting data of the camera 37 of the studio unit 30. The face motion data is generated as needed over time. For example, the face motion data may be generated every predetermined sampling interval.

  The moving image generation unit 21 </ b> B applies the body motion data and the face motion data generated by the motion data processing unit 21 </ b> A to predetermined model data included in the model data 23 </ b> A stored in the storage 23. Accordingly, the moving image generation unit 21B is configured to generate an animation of a character object that moves in the virtual space and changes its facial expression.

Furthermore, the moving image generation unit 21B constructs a virtual space using the object data 23B stored in the storage 23, and generates a moving image including an image of the virtual space and an animation of the character object corresponding to the actor A. The moving image generation unit 21B can set the position of the viewpoint position sensor 36 as the position of the virtual camera that is the viewpoint of the moving image. The position of the actor A relative to the position of the virtual camera is set as the position of the character object in the virtual space. Therefore, when the actor A changes the position or orientation of the viewpoint position sensor 36 to an arbitrary position or orientation, the character object is viewed from the left side, the video viewed from the right side, the video viewed from the top, and the like. Can produce video. Further, the moving image generation unit 21B may change the setting information (focus, angle of view, etc.) of the virtual camera based on the position of the virtual camera.

  The moving image distribution unit 21C transmits a distribution moving image list to the client device 10 and distributes the moving image generated by the moving image generation unit 21B. The moving image distribution unit 21C may distribute a moving image shot in the studio room R in real time, or may distribute a previously recorded moving image according to a distribution schedule or the like. The moving image distribution unit 21C may be configured to be able to distribute a plurality of moving images in the same time zone. For example, the moving image distribution unit 21C performs the same distribution start time (for example, “20:00”) on the distribution video of “Character X” played by “Actor A1” and the distribution video of “Character Y” played by “Actor A2”. ), Or may be distributed with overlapping distribution time zones. In response to a list display request from the client device 10, the moving image distribution unit 21 </ b> C transmits a list of distribution moving images that can be distributed to the client device 10. When receiving the moving image distribution request from the client device 10, the moving image distribution unit 21 </ b> C transmits the selected moving image to the client device 10 based on the moving image distribution request.

  The user request processing unit 21D receives an object display request and a message display request from the client device 10 of the viewing user, and performs processing according to the display request. The viewing user can transmit an object display request to the server 20 by operating his / her client device 10. The object includes a gift object provided from the viewer to the content. The gift object is an object that becomes a digital gift from a viewing user to an actor or the like. The gift object may be one that can be acquired or displayed without paying the consideration, or may be one that requires consideration for the acquisition or display request. Moreover, after displaying according to a display request | requirement, you may pay consideration. When the user pays for the acquisition or display request of the gift object from the viewing user, a part thereof is associated with the distributor, and the remaining part is associated with the operator who provides the moving image distribution platform. The gift object may be continuously displayed in the virtual space, or may be a temporary effect in the virtual space. The gift object display request may include the user ID of the viewing user and identification information (object ID) of the object that is the target of the display request.

  On the other hand, when the user request processing unit 21D determines that the object for which the display request has been made requires an actor or supporter, the user request processing unit 21D displays the gift object for which the display request has been made on the sub-display 43. When the actor or supporter gives a display instruction to the gift object for which a display request has been made, the object for which the display request has been made is displayed.

  In addition, the user request processing unit 21D performs processing for displaying a message received from the client device 10 on a moving image. In addition to the content of the message, the message includes identification information (user ID or terminal ID) of the viewing user and posting date / time.

  When receiving the message, the user request processing unit 21D determines whether or not the message can be displayed. When the user request processing unit 21D determines that the received message can be displayed, the user request processing unit 21D displays the message in a predetermined area of the moving image via the moving image generating unit 21B. Further, the user request processing unit 21 </ b> D displays a message and message attribute information on the sub-display 43.

Further, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object (growth object) other than the character object when the change condition is satisfied. The specific object is an object that changes the display mode a plurality of times. The specific object may be an object that changes its display mode along the life cycle, such as an object that imitates a living organism such as a plant or an animal. Alternatively, the specific object may be an object that imitates something other than a living thing. For example, each time a change condition is satisfied, a specific object that imitates a plant changes to a state of “seed”, “bud”, “flower”, “fruit”, or “wither”.

  The specific object may be given from the studio operator at a predetermined timing. Alternatively, the specific object may be given as a gift from the viewing user to the character. Alternatively, the specific object may be given to the distributor by an actor participating in an event executed in the moving image. In a mode in which the viewing user gives a specific object to the distributor as a gift to the character, the viewing user can be involved in the content of the moving image. For this reason, the viewing user is motivated to purchase the specific object.

  The object processing unit 21E analyzes the contents of each message transmitted from the viewing user. The storage 23 stores a dictionary in which a plurality of words / phrases are registered, and the object processing unit 21E extracts words / phrases included in the message and collates the words / phrases with the dictionary. Attributes are given to the words stored in the dictionary. For example, an attribute such as “positive (first attribute)” is given to positive words such as “like” and “cute”. An attribute such as “negative (second attribute)” is assigned to a negative word such as “Kirai” or “pain”. The object processing unit 21E searches the dictionary and identifies the attribute of the phrase that matches the extracted phrase, thereby determining the attribute to which each of the messages transmitted within the predetermined period belongs. The determination method of the message attribute may be performed by a method other than this, for example, based on a predetermined symbol included in the message.

  When the object processing unit 21E determines the attribute of the message, the object processing unit 21E updates the counter set for each attribute and calculates the number of messages of each attribute. In addition to the number of messages, the number of words having the first attribute and the number of words having the second attribute included in the message may be counted. Or even if it is a phrase which belongs to the same attribute, you may weight according to a phrase. For example, “1 point” for “cute” and “2 points” for “like” may be accumulated. There may also be a message that does not belong to any attribute.

  The purchase processing unit 21G receives a request for displaying a purchase medium such as a gift object related to the distribution video from the client device 10 by the operation of the viewing user. After receiving the purchase medium display request, the purchase processing unit 21 </ b> G transmits the purchase medium information to the client device 10. The purchase medium information may include the type of purchase medium, the image of the purchase medium, the price, and various types of information necessary for purchase. The viewing user confirms information on the purchase medium displayed on the client device 10 and selects an arbitrary purchase medium. When the purchase medium is selected by the viewing user, the client device 10 transmits a purchase request for the purchase medium to the server 20. The purchase processing unit 21G performs a settlement process based on the purchase request. When this settlement processing is completed, the purchased purchase medium is stored in the server 20 as being held by the viewing user. In addition to the gift object, the purchase medium may be an object other than a gift object related to viewing of a moving image, or viewing conditions such as a moving image quality, a two-dimensional image, or a three-dimensional image. The purchase medium may be a moving image itself. Sales of gift objects and other media that can be purchased are distributed to distributors. At this time, a part of the sales may be distributed to the manager of the studio unit 30.

  The communication I / F 22 is implemented as hardware, firmware, communication software such as a TCP / IP driver, or a combination thereof. The server 20 can send and receive data to and from other devices via the communication I / F 22.

  The storage 23 is a storage device accessed by the computer processor 21. The storage 23 is, for example, a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a semiconductor memory, or various other storage devices that can store data. Various programs can be stored in the storage 23. At least a part of the program and various data that can be stored in the storage 23 may be stored in a storage physically separate from the server 20.

  The storage 23 stores model data 23A, object data 23B, content management data 23C, a holding list 23D, a gift list 23E, and a posting message 23F. The storage 23 may store a moving image being distributed by the moving image distribution system 1 or a moving image already distributed.

The storage 13 is various storage devices such as a magnetic disk, like the storage 23 of the server 20. The storage 13 stores an application program for viewing a moving image distributed from the server 20. The input I / F 14 is an arbitrary input interface that accepts input from a viewing user such as a touch panel. Similar to the communication I / F 22, the communication I / F 15 is various drivers, software, or a combination thereof for performing communication with other devices. The display 16 is, for example, an organic EL display integrated with a touch panel, a liquid crystal display, or any display device capable of displaying an image other than these.

  The client device 10 activates a viewing application program (also referred to as a native program) installed in the client device 10 by accepting a viewing user's operation via the input I / F 14. The viewing application only needs to be at least viewable, and may have other functions. The computer processor 12 executes a readable instruction included in the viewing application program, and acquires a list of distribution videos from the server 20. The client device 10 displays the transmitted list on the display. The viewing user selects one from the moving images displayed in the list. When the client device 10 receives the selection operation of the viewing user, the client device 10 transmits a moving image distribution request for requesting distribution of the selected moving image to the server 20. Alternatively, the client device 10 starts the web browser stored in the storage 13 by accessing the server 20 and displays the web page described in a markup language such as HTML or XML on the display 16. It may be configured. A list of videos is displayed on the web page. Alternatively, the client device 10 may display the moving image list by using both the viewing program and the web browser (in-app browser) stored in the storage 13 of the client device 10.

  When the client device 10 receives the moving image data from the server 20, the client device 10 displays the moving image on the display 16 based on the received data. The viewing user can input a message regarding the distributed moving image via the input I / F 14 of the client device 10 and post the message to the server 20. The message posted from each viewing user may be displayed superimposed on the moving image. Thereby, the exchange between the actor and the viewing user and the exchange between the viewing users are achieved.

Next, various data stored in the storage 23 of the server 20 will be described. The model data 23A is model data for generating animation of a character. The model data 23A may be 3D model data for generating a 3D animation, or may be 2D model data for generating 2D model data. The model data 23A includes, for example, rig data indicating the character's skeleton (sometimes referred to as “skeleton data”) and surface data indicating the shape and texture of the character's surface. The model data 23A can include a plurality of different model data. The plurality of model data may have different rig data, or may have the same rig data. The plurality of model data may have surface data different from each other, or may have the same surface data. In the illustrated embodiment, the model data 23A includes at least two types of model data different from each other in order to generate a character object corresponding to the actor. The moving image data distributed to the client device 10 may be 2D moving image data or 3D moving image data. For example, the server 20 may generate three-dimensional moving image data based on an actor's operation, convert this to two-dimensional moving image data, and distribute it to the client device 10.

  The object data 23B includes asset data for constructing a virtual space that constitutes a moving image. The object data 23B is data for drawing the background of the virtual space constituting the moving image, data for drawing various objects displayed in the moving image, and for drawing various objects displayed in other moving images. Contains data. The object data 23B may include object position information indicating the position of the object in the virtual space. The object data 23B may include data (component) for causing the object to physically move. This data may include data for setting whether or not to collide with other objects, and data such as a friction coefficient and a restitution coefficient. For example, in the case where setting data for causing an object to collide with another object is included, it is determined that the object has collided when the positional relationship with the other object to be collided satisfies a predetermined positional relationship. Either rebound or one of them bounces back. On the other hand, when setting data that does not cause an object to collide with another object is included, even if the positional relationship with another object satisfies a predetermined positional relationship, the object does not collide with another object.

  In addition to the above, the object data 23 </ b> B may include a gift object that is displayed on a moving image based on a display request from a viewing user of the client device 10. The gift object can include an effect object, a decoration object, and a normal object. An upper limit may be set for the number of objects that can be purchased or the purchase price of an object.

  The effect object is an object that affects the impression of the entire viewing screen of the distribution video, for example, an object that imitates confetti, an object that imitates fireworks, and the like. An object that imitates a confetti may be displayed on the entire viewing screen, thereby changing the impression of the entire viewing screen before and after display. For example, the effect object may be represented by a particle system that represents an event composed of moving particles. In the particle system, a display time may be set for each particle. The effect object may be a static object or a dynamic object. Although the effect object may be displayed so as to overlap the character object, the effect object is different from the decoration object in that it is not displayed in association with a specific part of the character object.

The decoration object is an object displayed on the display screen in association with a specific part of the character object. The decoration object displayed on the display screen in association with the specific part of the character object is displayed on the display screen so as to be in contact with the specific part of the character object. The decoration object displayed on the display screen in association with a specific part of the character object is displayed on the display screen so as to cover a part or all of the specific part of the character object.

  The decoration object is an object that can be attached to, for example, accessories (headbands, necklaces, earrings, etc.), clothes (T-shirts, etc.), costumes, and other character objects attached to the character object. The object data 23B corresponding to the decoration object may include mounting position information indicating which part of the character object the decoration object is associated with. The mounting position information of a certain decorative object can indicate to which part of the character object the decorative object is mounted. For example, when the decoration object is “nekomimi”, the attachment position information of the decoration object may indicate that the decoration object is attached to the “head” of the character object. When the decoration object is a “ring”, the attachment position information of the decoration object may indicate that the decoration object is attached to the “finger” of the character object.

  The decoration object is attached to the character object by being added to the list stored in the storage 23 or other storage by the server 20 and then being selected by an actor or a supporter. The viewing user feels familiarity with the character object by having the decorated gift object transmitted by the viewing user attached to the character object. On the other hand, even if the viewing user makes a display request for a decoration object, the decoration object is not attached to the character object unless selected by an actor or a supporter. When an actor selects a decoration object, the actor confirms a list displayed on the sub-display 43 and uses a pointing device such as the controller 40 or selects a decoration object by an instruction to the supporter. Further, the supporter confirms a list displayed on the supporter computer 45 and selects a decoration object using the input interface 50.

  The normal object is a gift object other than a decoration object arranged as an object in the virtual space, for example, an object simulating a stuffed animal or a bouquet. The normal object may be displayed so as to overlap with the character object, but is different from the decoration object in that it is not displayed in association with a specific part of the character object. A normal object may be different in that a normal object can change its position by an actor, whereas an effect object cannot change its position by an actor. The normal object and the effect object may have different display times.

  A display time corresponding to the type of each gift object may be set. In one aspect, the display time of the decoration object may be set longer than the display time of the effect object or the display time of the normal object. For example, the display time of the decoration object may be set to 60 seconds, the display time of the effect object may be set to 5 seconds, and the display time of the normal object may be set to 10 seconds.

As shown in FIG. 5, the object data 23B includes drawing data of a specific object. The specific object may be different from the background. For example, the specific object is associated with a plurality of pieces of drawing data 25A, 25B, 25C, 25D... For drawing the specific object for one piece of identification information (object ID). Each drawing data is associated with information indicating the stage of change (for example, “1” to “5”). The drawing data 25A of “1” is used for the specific object at the initial stage, and the drawing data 25B of “2” is used as the specific object at the next stage when the change condition is satisfied. An example of the change pattern of the display mode of the specific object is to display in accordance with a series of orders based on drawing data associated with information indicating the stage of change. Also,
As another example of the change pattern of the display mode of the specific object, the drawing pattern branches at one change stage, and any drawing data is used at the branch point. For example, the information indicating the change stage of the drawing data is “1”, “2A”, “2B”..., And the drawing data of “2A” and the drawing of “2B” are changed at the change stage of “2”. One of the data is selected. When a display mode branches, you may follow the pattern of each display mode, and may return to the same display mode. The specific object may be drawn on a transparent or opaque background curtain object, or may be drawn between the background and the character object, and the drawing position is not particularly limited.

  As shown in FIG. 6A, the content management data 23C is data in which at least one of content viewing status and distribution status is stored for each content of the character object. There are content that is distributed over a plurality of times and content that ends in one delivery time. For example, “distributor A” distributes “content P” whose main character is “character P” multiple times.

  Further, another “distributor B” distributes “content Q” whose main character is “character Q” over a plurality of times. The content does not necessarily include animations of different characters. For example, different contents may be configured for moving images of the same character object.

  The content management data 23C includes at least one of the number of viewing users, the number of posted messages, the viewing time, and the number of distributions. The number of viewing users is the largest number of viewing users among the number of viewing users accumulated from the first distribution time to the most recent distribution time, the number of viewing users of the most recent distribution time, and the most recent distribution time from the first distribution time. The number of viewing users for the distribution time, the number of viewing users with the smallest number of viewing users among the most recent distribution times from the first distribution time, the average number of viewing users from the first distribution time to the most recent distribution time, and the like. The number of message posts is the number of messages posted by accumulating the number of messages posted from the first delivery time to the most recent delivery time, the number of message posts in the latest delivery time, the number of message posts in the delivery time with the most message posts The number of message postings in the delivery time with the least number of message postings, the average number of message postings from the first delivery time to the latest delivery time, and the like. The viewing time is the viewing time obtained by accumulating the viewing time of each viewing user from the first delivery time to the latest delivery time, the viewing time of the viewing user of the latest delivery time, and the like.

  As shown in FIG. 6B, the possession list 23D is a list of objects possessed by the viewing user. The possession list 23 </ b> D may include identification information (object ID) of the possessed object in association with the user ID. The object held by the viewing user may be different for each content, and the object held by the viewing user may be common between different contents, or may include both of them. When the object is different for each content, the viewing user possession list 23D stores object identification information for each content. The possession list 23D is continuously stored over a plurality of moving image distributions. Alternatively, the possession list 23D may be newly generated or reset every time content for one time is distributed.

As shown in FIG. 6C, the gift list 23E is a list of gift objects associated with the content. The gift list 23E is preferably generated or reset every time a moving image is distributed. When the viewing user transmits a request for displaying a gift object to the moving image, information regarding the gift object is added to the gift list 23E. The gift list 23E includes content identification information, identification information (user ID) of a viewing user as a transmission source of a gift object, identification information (object ID) of a gift object, and types of gift objects (decoration object, effect object, normal object).
, Posting date and time, and selection status of the gift object. The selection state of the gift object indicates whether or not the decoration object is selected by the actor or the supporter when the gift object is the decoration object. In the selection state, data indicating “selected” is stored when a decorative object is selected, and data indicating “unselected” is stored when a decorative object is not selected. When the gift object is not a decoration object, data other than “not selected” or “not selected” and “selected” is stored.

  As illustrated in FIG. 6D, the posted message 23 </ b> F may include information related to a message posted to the moving image by the viewing user. The posted message 23F may include, for each content, the viewing user identification information (user ID), the content of the message, and the posting date and time when the message is posted. The posted message 23F may be newly generated or reset every time content for one time is distributed. The posted message 23F may include which attribute the message belongs to, such as “first attribute”. If it does not belong to any attribute, the attribute data is not stored.

  As shown in FIG. 6E, the distributor data 23G includes information regarding the distributor. Distributor data 23G may include distributor identification information (distributor ID), content identification information, and distributor level. Further, the distributor data 23G may include the number of content viewing users and the number of times content is distributed. The level of the distributor is determined by the number of content viewing users, the number of content distributions, the number of content favorites registered, and the like. For example, the level of the distributor may increase as the number of viewing users increases. Alternatively, the level of the distributor may increase as the number of distributions increases.

Next, a screen displayed on the client device 10 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 7, a moving image viewing screen 105 is displayed on the display 16 of the client device 10 based on the moving image data transmitted from the server 20. On the video viewing screen 105, a virtual space with the viewpoint position sensor 36 as the camera viewpoint and a character object 110 reflecting the actions of the actor are displayed. In addition, on the video viewing screen 105, gift selection units 112 and 113 and a post selection unit 114 are displayed. The gift selection unit 112 is an operation unit for displaying a gift object held by the viewing user on a moving image. When the gift selection unit 112 is selected, a list of gift objects held by the viewing user is displayed based on the holding list 23D. When the viewing user selects a gift object from the list, the client device 10 transmits a gift object display request. The gift selection unit 113 is an operation unit for making a display request for a predetermined object such as a “heart” object. The gift selection unit 113 may make a display request for gift objects that are not included in the possession list 23D. The posting selection unit 114 is an operation unit for displaying a message input by the viewing user on a moving image during a period in which a message can be posted. When the post selection unit 114 is selected, a message input field is displayed, and the user inputs a message in the message input field.

  When the server 20 receives a message from the client device 10 within a postable period, the server 20 transmits moving image data including the message to all the client devices 10 connected to the server 20. The client device 10 that has received the moving image data displays a message 130 in the moving image viewing screen 105. The message 130 displays the posted viewing user identification information and the message content.

The messages 130 are arranged in a predetermined area of the moving image viewing screen 105 in the order of posted date and time. When the server 20 receives a new message, the message 130 displayed at the top is moved down, and the new message is displayed at the top. A message that has reached the bottom of the message display area moves further downward and is not displayed when a new message is added to the top. Alternatively, the message display area may be capable of displaying only one message.

  In addition, when the server 20 receives a gift object display request from the client device 10 within a period during which a gift object display request can be accepted, the server 20 displays the gift object at a timing according to the type of the gift object. To do. The gift object is a normal object or an effect object. The gift object is a decoration object (for example, “nekomimi”) displayed in association with a predetermined part (the top of the head) of the character object 110.

  In addition, a specific object is displayed on the moving image as a gift object or other object. The specific object 120 </ b> A may be requested to be displayed when the viewing user operates the gift selection unit 112. Alternatively, the specific object 120A may be displayed in a moving image by an operation of the controller 40 or the like by an actor or an operation of the supporter computer 45 by a supporter.

  The specific object 120A may be arranged at a predetermined position. Alternatively, the specific object 120A may be arranged so that an actor or a supporter can be arranged at an arbitrary position in the virtual space. The specific object 120A may be arranged at any position in the virtual space as well as the landing of the character object 110 in the virtual space. The specific object 120A may be set as an object that can collide with another object displayed in the virtual space, or may be set as an object that does not collide. Furthermore, the specific object 120A may be set to avoid a collision with a predetermined object. For example, when a plurality of specific objects 120A are arranged in the virtual space, it is not necessary to generate an action associated with a collision (contact) between the specific objects 120A. Further, when the specific object 120A collides with an object other than the other specific object, the first action is generated, and when the specific object 120A collides with another specific object, the second action different from the first action is performed. It may be generated.

  As shown in FIG. 8, when the change condition is satisfied, the specific object 120A changes its display mode to become the specific object 120B. The illustrated content is for distributing a moving image to a client device over a plurality of distribution times. The moving image displays a specific object in the “seed” display form shown in FIG. 7 and the display of “bud”. The moving image displaying the specific object of the form is distributed in different distribution times.

  The change condition is stored in the storage 23. The change condition may be set for each specific object 120A, or may be set for each drawing data of the same specific object 120A. An example of the change condition relates to a moving image distribution status. For example, a predetermined period has elapsed since the placement of the specific object 120A was started, or a predetermined number of distributions has been reached. Or, a predetermined period has elapsed since the last growth, or a predetermined number of distributions has been reached. Specifically, when “24 hours” elapses after the specific object 120A is arranged in the virtual space, the specific object 120A can be changed from the “seed” display mode to the display mode in which “buds” appear. Alternatively, the specific object 120A can be changed from the “seed” display mode to the display mode in which “buds” appear in a distribution cycle after a predetermined number of times starting from the distribution cycle in which the specific object 120A is arranged in the virtual space. . When a moving image is generated in accordance with a distributor's instruction in a state where the specific object is changeable, the specific object 120A changes to a specific object 120B at the next stage.

The change condition may be other than the moving image distribution status. For example, it may be a condition regarding the activity or viewing status of the viewing user. The condition regarding the viewing condition of the moving image is, for example, that the total number of viewing users who have viewed the content from the first time has reached a predetermined number, or the viewing user who registered the content in a predetermined category such as “Like”. The number of people has reached the specified number, the total viewing time of all viewing users from the first time has reached the specified time, the message from the first time to the most recent distribution time or the content at the predetermined distribution time The cumulative number of messages reached the predetermined number, the cumulative number of gift objects requested to be displayed reached the predetermined number, the number of simultaneous viewing users and the number of visits reached the predetermined value, etc. is there. Specifically, when the number of viewing users accumulated from the first time reaches “100”, the specific object may be changed from the “seed” state to the “bud” state. The change condition may be a condition other than these conditions.

  As the moving image progresses in this way, the display mode of the specific object changes, so that the viewing user views the moving image with an interest in the change of the specific object. Thereby, the number of viewing users and the like can be increased. In particular, when the display mode of a specific object changes over a plurality of distribution times, the number of repeaters increases, so the number of viewing times, viewing time, etc. can be increased.

  The change in the display mode of the specific object 120A may be branched depending on the activity of the viewing user or the distribution status of the moving image. The activity of the viewing user is a message posting by the viewing user, a request for displaying a gift object, and the like. If the change condition does not overlap, the activity of the viewing user may be the content viewing status (number of viewing users, viewing time, etc.).

  With reference to FIG. 9, the case where a display mode is branched according to the posting of the message by the viewing user will be described. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 analyzes the message 130 and determines whether the content of the message belongs to the first attribute or the second attribute. Further, the number of messages 130 belonging to the first attribute and the number of messages 130 belonging to the second attribute are calculated and compared. Then, the display mode of the specific object 120A is changed according to the attribute having the larger number of messages.

  FIG. 9A shows the moving image viewing screen 105 when there are many messages belonging to the first attribute “positive”. For example, the specific object 120C is “cactus” in which “heart” flowers bloom.

  FIG. 9B shows the moving image viewing screen 105 when there are many messages belonging to the second attribute “negative”. For example, the specific object 120D is “cactus” in which “thorn” is elongated.

  In this way, since the activity of the viewing user can be reflected in the display mode of the specific object, the viewing user can actively participate in the content. Thereby, since the communication between a distributor and a viewing user can be made smooth, the new viewing user or repeater of the said content can be increased. In addition, for example, the viewing user expects himself / herself by informing the viewing user in advance what kind of display mode the specific object will change when there are many messages of each attribute. In order to change the specific object in the display mode, messages are more actively posted. Moreover, since the distributor can talk about the growth of the specific object, the distributor can be supported by changing the display mode of the specific object.

Next, with reference to FIG. 10, a state in which the change in the display mode of the specific object has progressed in stages will be described. In the illustrated embodiment, the specific object is changed to the “fruit” display mode. That is, the specific object 120E has a display mode including the deliverable 120F. The video distribution system 1 may treat the deliverable 120F as an electronic data medium that can be used in the same content or on a platform for distributing the content. At this time, the viewing user or the distributor performs acquisition, possession, use, management, exchange, composition, strengthening, sale, disposal, gifting, or the like through the operation of the client device 10 or the supporter computer 45. The deliverable 120F may be usable as a gift object for the moving image in which the deliverable 120F is generated or other moving images. The deliverable 120F is, for example, an item having a high value such as rarity or an item with a distributor's name.

  A case where the deliverable 120F of the specific object 120E is given to the viewing user will be described. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 performs the assignment of the deliverable 120F, for example, at a harvest event in the moving image. The object processing unit 21E specifies a viewing user who is viewing the harvest event. Further, data related to the deliverable 120F is added to the specified viewing user possession list 23D to associate the deliverable 120F with the viewing user. Data (component) for causing physical behavior may be set in the deliverable 120F. Then, at the harvest event, a process for causing the deliverable 120F to perform a physical behavior may be performed and associated with the viewing user or the like. For example, when the product 120F is harvested, the product 120F may be moved downward in the vertical direction in the virtual space as if gravity is acting on the product 120F. Alternatively, when it is determined that the position relationship between the character object and the product 120F satisfies a predetermined relationship by performing a collision determination of the hand of the character object and the product 120F and the like, the character object has the product 120F. It may be displayed. Furthermore, the character object may arrange the deliverable 120F at a predetermined position.

  Further, for example, a new specific object (product) such as “seed” may be generated from the specific object at the final stage such as “fruit”. A new “species” specific object may be used in the same content or in other content. Alternatively, a new specific object such as a “seed” may be configured to be exchanged, sold, or gifted on a platform for distributing content. In this way, by giving a new specific object that can be used by the viewing user to the viewing user, it is possible to increase the merit of giving the specific object to the viewing user.

  Further, when the change condition is satisfied in the specific object having the display form of “fruit”, the specific object may be hidden. Or you may make it non-display through the following display modes, such as "wither."

A processing procedure for changing the display mode of the specific object will be described with reference to FIG.
The user request processing unit 21D of the server 20 receives the message transmitted from the viewing user's client device 10 (step S10). The user request processing unit 21D displays the received message on a moving image.

  Further, the object processing unit 21E of the server 20 analyzes the content of the message (step S11). Then, the attribute of the message to be analyzed is determined (step S12). For example, a positive message such as “cute” is determined to belong to “positive (first attribute)”. A negative message such as “Kirai” is determined to belong to “Negative (second attribute)”.

Further, the object processing unit 21E updates the counter for each attribute (step S13).
). For example, when the object processing unit 21E determines that the determination target message belongs to the first attribute, the object processing unit 21E increments a counter belonging to the first attribute.

  Further, the object processing unit 21E determines whether or not the change condition for the specific object is satisfied (step S14). The change condition may be that the value of the counter is equal to or greater than a threshold value in addition to the change condition described above.

  When the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is satisfied (step S14: YES), the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object (step S15). Specifically, the object processing unit 21E reads the object data 23B and changes the display mode of the specific object being displayed to the display mode of the next stage. On the other hand, when the object processing unit 21E determines that it is not the growth timing (step S14: NO), the process returns to step S10 and repeats the above-described processing.

As described above, according to the embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) In the moving image distributed to the client device, the display mode of the specific object changes according to the activity of the viewing user. That is, the viewing user can actively participate in the content. As a result, the number of content viewing users, the number of viewing times, or the viewing time can be increased.

  (2) The display mode of the specific object changes according to the message posted to the moving image. Accordingly, the viewing user can be motivated to post the message, so that the viewing user actively participates in the content.

  (3) When the specific object reaches the “fruit” display mode, the product 120F displayed on the specific object is associated with the viewing user. Thereby, it is possible to give the viewing user a motivation to perform an activity that changes the display mode of the specific object to “fruit”.

  (4) When the specific object is a gift object requested to be displayed by the viewing user, the viewing user can be actively involved in the content of the moving image. For this reason, provision of the gift object from a viewing user can be made active.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the moving image distribution system will be described. In the second embodiment, the process of branching the display mode of the specific object is different from the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

In the present embodiment, the display mode of the specific object is branched according to the gift object requested to be displayed by the viewing user.
As shown in FIG. 12, on the moving image viewing screen 105, a gift object requested by the viewing user to be displayed is displayed together with the specific object 130B. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 changes the display mode of the specific object according to the type or attribute of the largest number of gift objects among all the gift objects displayed in the display request or the gift objects. . For example, the object processing unit 21E compares the number of “star” gift objects G1 with the number of “heart” gift objects G2, which are gift objects for which display requests have been made within a predetermined period. The predetermined period may be a period from the start of content distribution, may be a predetermined distribution time, or may be a predetermined time zone set for a predetermined distribution time.

  As illustrated in FIG. 13A, when the number of “heart” gift object display requests is greater than the number of other gift object display requests, the specific object 130 </ b> C has a display mode in which flowers bloom.

  As illustrated in FIG. 13B, when the number of “star” gift object display requests is greater than the number of other gift object display requests, the specific object 130 </ b> D has a flower different from the flower that blooms when there are many “hearts”. The display mode is in bloom.

  With reference to FIG. 14, the process of branching the display mode of the specific object according to the type of the gift object will be described. When the client device 10 receives a display request input operation by the viewing user, the client device 10 transmits the display request to the server 20. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 updates the counter for each gift object when a counter is set for the gift object requested to be displayed (step S30).

  The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 determines whether or not the change condition for the specific object is satisfied (step S31). The change condition may be that the value of the counter is equal to or greater than a threshold value in addition to the change condition described above. If the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is not satisfied (step S31: NO), the process returns to step S30.

  On the other hand, when the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is satisfied (step S31: YES), the object processing unit 21E determines the gift object for which the most display requests are made based on the value of the counter (step S32). For example, the object processing unit 21E determines that there are the most “gift” gift objects among the gift objects. Then, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object according to the gift object for which display requests are most frequently made (step S33). For example, when the largest number of display requests are made for the “heart” gift object, the specific object has a display mode in which flowers bloom.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to at least a part of the effects described in the above embodiments.
(5) Since the display mode of the specific object changes according to the gift object with the highest number of display requests, it is possible to give the viewer a motivation to change the display mode of the specific object. Thereby, the viewing user can actively participate in the content.

(Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the moving image distribution system will be described. In the third embodiment, the process for changing the display mode of the specific object is different from that in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.

In the present embodiment, the display mode of the specific object is changed according to the distribution status of the distributor's video.
As illustrated in FIG. 15A, the specific object 140 is an object for supporting the distributor, and is an object that provides the distributor with advice on moving image distribution. In the illustrated embodiment, the specific object 140 is a specific object imitating a tree 140B having a display medium 140A (hanging shaft, board) on which advice to the distributor is displayed. The display medium 140A describes the theme of the conversation recommended by the management (for example, “Let's introduce yourself”, “Let's ask everyone”), the contents of the performance, and the like.

The object processing unit 21E refers to the distributor data 23G, and acquires advice from the storage 23 according to the level of the distributor and the distribution status of the moving image. Then, the advice is displayed on the display medium 140A. The specific object 150 in the illustrated embodiment is an object on which advice is posted when the level is relatively low.

  When the actor uses the advice described on the display medium 140A, the actor advances the distribution of the moving image according to the advice. For example, introduce yourself or ask questions to viewers. The object processing unit 21E may display the display medium 140A for a predetermined time and then delete it.

  As illustrated in FIG. 15B, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object 150 when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the advice described on the display medium 140A is changed to the content according to the level of the distributor.

  A processing procedure for changing the display mode of the specific object according to the level of the distributor will be described with reference to FIG. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 acquires the level of the distributor (step S40). The timing for acquiring the level may be when the video distribution is started or when the video distribution is completed. Based on the acquired level, the object processing unit 21E determines whether a change condition regarding the level is satisfied (step S41). The change condition in this case is that the level has increased by one step, that the level has reached a predetermined level, that a predetermined time or a predetermined number of distributions has elapsed since the level has changed, and the like. Alternatively, the change condition may be a condition related to the number of viewing users, a condition related to an actor's action or utterance, or any of the conditions described in the above embodiments. .

  If the object processing unit 21E determines that the acquired level does not satisfy the change condition (step S41: NO), the process returns to step S40. When the object processing unit 21E determines that the acquired level satisfies the change condition (step S41: YES), the support information for supporting the distributor is displayed (step S42). For example, the display medium 140A of the specific object 150 is changed. If support information is displayed, it will return to step S40 and will repeat the above-mentioned process.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to at least a part of the effects described in the above embodiments.
(7) Display the display medium 140A in which advice to the distributor is described as the specific object. Accordingly, even a distributor who has just started distributing moving images may perform acting or the like according to the advice, so that the barrier to continuing the distribution and distribution of moving images can be reduced. Further, even a distributor who distributes a large number of times of moving images, the distribution contents are likely to be duplicated as the distribution times are repeated, so that moving images having new contents can be distributed by incorporating the advice into the moving images.

Each said embodiment can be changed and implemented as follows. The present embodiment and the following modifications can be implemented in combination with each other within a technically consistent range.
As shown in FIG. 17, the specific object 150 includes, as a deliverable 150A, a medium that is given to the viewing user or the distributor is unknown until a harvest event occurs (for example, a ball). Also good. When the harvest event occurs, the object processing unit 21E displays a medium given to the viewing user or the distributor. For example, an effect is performed such that an object (item, gift object, ticket, etc.) appears from the product 150A of “Kusudama”. Then, the object processing unit 21E associates the object obtained from the deliverable 150A with the viewing user who viewed the harvest event or the moving image including the harvest event, or the distributor. According to this, since at least a part of the viewing user views until the contents of the deliverable 150A become clear, the number of viewing times, viewing time, etc. can be increased.

  As shown in FIG. 18, a plurality of specific objects may be synthesized. FIG. 18A shows the specific object 160A displayed in the content distributed by “distributor A”. FIG. 18B shows the specific object 160B displayed in the content distributed by “distributor B”. Upon receiving a specific object composition instruction from the terminal used by the distributor and the terminal used by the distributor, the server 20 selects the specific object 160A of “distributor A” and the specific object 160B of “distributor B”. The specific object 160 </ b> C (FIG. 18C) is generated by combining and displayed on the moving image viewing screen 105. In addition, even if it is not a specific object of a different distributor, when there are a plurality of specific objects in the content, the distributor may combine these specific objects. According to this aspect, not only the change in the display mode of the specific object but also the viewing user can have a sense of expectation and interest in the change in the display mode due to the composition.

  In each of the above embodiments, the growth process of the specific object is branched according to the activity of the viewing user and the video distribution status of the distributor. Instead, the growth process of the specific object may be a plurality of stages that do not branch. Even in this mode, if the change condition relates to the user activity, the display mode of the specific object changes according to the activity of the viewing user, so that the viewing user can actively participate in the content. .

  -When the change condition of a specific object is satisfy | filled, the server 20 may change the display mode of a specific object according to the date information at that time. For example, when the change condition is satisfied is “April”, the display mode of the specific object is assumed to include “sakura” flowers, while the change condition is satisfied in the specific object under the same conditions. “August” may include “sunflower” flowers. The date / time information is not limited to “year / month / day” but may be “time”.

  The server 20 may acquire information regarding the external environment at that time when the change condition of the specific object is satisfied, and may change the display mode of the specific object based on the acquired information regarding the external environment. . Information regarding the external environment includes weather, temperature, position information where the client device 10 is located, and the like. The server 20 may acquire information regarding the external environment from the client device 10 or may be acquired from an external server. For example, the server 20 acquires location information from the client device 10 when the change condition is satisfied, and acquires weather corresponding to the location information from an external server. When the weather corresponding to the position information is “rain”, the server 20 displays a specific object including an umbrella or dynamically displays raindrop particles around the specific object. May be.

  In the above embodiment, the display mode of the specific object is changed according to the actor activity. Instead of or in addition to this, the display mode may be changed according to the distribution status of the moving image. For example, when the number of distributions reaches “10”, the number of flowers of the specific object is “10”, and when the number of distributions reaches “20”, the number of flowers of the specific object is “20”. Good.

-One specific object may be displayed in a moving image, and multiple may be displayed.
In the third embodiment, support information corresponding to the level of the distributor is displayed when the change condition is satisfied. As the support information, any one of a plurality of support information may be selected according to the state of the actor when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the server 20 stores a plurality of support information in the storage 23, and the object processing unit 21E acquires information regarding the state of the actor when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the object processing unit 21E acquires information related to the operation of the actor based on various parameters acquired from the mounting sensor 33, such as the movement distance of the actor from the initial position and the number of times the arm is swung. Then, the object processing unit 21E displays support information such as “Let's dance” when it is determined that the actor's movement is small based on various parameters, and when it is determined that the actor's movement is sufficiently large Display different support information or do not display support information. Alternatively, the object processing unit 21E calculates the utterance amount or the time during which no utterance is made (silenced) based on the voice of the actor input from the microphone 44. The object processing unit 21E displays support information such as “Let's sing” when it is determined that the amount of utterance of the actor is small, and another support information when it is determined that the amount of utterance of the actor is sufficiently large. Display or do not display support information.

  The specific object (growth object) may be an object other than the above embodiments. For example, an object (bonsai) that grows when the number of continuous viewing users who continuously view a video distributed in each distribution reaches a predetermined number of people (“100”, “200”) in stages. Etc.

  -In one embodiment, many infrared LED was mounted in each of the installation sensor 33 with which an actor and an actor are mounted | worn, and the light from this infrared LED was provided in the floor and wall of the studio room R The position and orientation of each mounting sensor 33 may be detected by detecting with an infrared camera. Instead of the infrared LED, a visible light LED may be used, and the position and orientation of each mounting sensor 33 may be detected by detecting light from the visible light LED with a visible light camera. As described above, each of the plurality of mounting sensors 33 mounted on the actor is provided with a light emitting unit (for example, an infrared LED or a visible light LED), and a light receiving unit (in the studio room) that receives light from the light emitting unit. For example, the position and orientation of each mounting sensor 33 may be detected by detecting with an infrared camera or a visible light camera. In one embodiment, a plurality of reflective markers can be used in place of the mounting sensor 33. The reflective marker is attached to each actor or provided as a part of clothes (suits) worn by the actor. By providing the reflective marker in the actor as described above, the actor is photographed to generate photographing data, and the photographing data is subjected to image processing, whereby the position and orientation of the reflective marker can be detected. Further, the tracking system 31 may be capable of detecting the movement of the actor using only the external sensor 32 without using the mounting sensor 33.
