9 is a diagram illustrating provision and acquisition of items in virtual reality according to an exemplary embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 9, an item obtainable by a player may be provided in virtual reality.

For example, in the case of an FPS game, items such as HP, ammunition, and weapons may be provided, and such items may be provided in a region within a virtual reality so that the player can acquire them.

In the case of a conventional virtual reality game, an item was provided, but only at a predetermined item providing location.

In addition, when a limited space is provided in a game using virtual reality, players may be concentrated in one place.

In this case, a collision may occur due to movement or play between players, and the collision may increase the risk of an accident.

Thus, it may be necessary to disperse the players so that they are not as dense as possible.

In order to disperse such players, there may be a method of guiding movement by providing an arrow or the like, but this is a matter that can be ignored by the player, and there is a limitation in that it cannot be moved if the player does not voluntarily participate.

However, in the case of items necessary for play, the player needs them, and the player may need to acquire these items for smoother play.

Therefore, when an item is provided in virtual reality, the player can move to a location where the item is provided to acquire the item, and accordingly, the players can be distributed.

In addition, items provided in the virtual reality may include common items that can be acquired and/or used by all players and exclusive items that can be used only by the corresponding player.

In the case of a dedicated item, only the corresponding player can be obtained, or even if all players can obtain it, the item can be used only by the corresponding player.

If these exclusive items are distributed and provided, the player can move to acquire the item, thereby inducing the distribution of the player.

As an example, when the first player's exclusive item is provided to the left from the location where the player is concentrated, and the second player's exclusive item is provided on the right side from the location where the player is concentrated, the first player can obtain the exclusive item. By moving to the left and the second player to the right to obtain a dedicated item, the first player and the second player can be induced to be dispersed from each other.

In virtual reality, the player's item acquisition may be acquired through occupation, touch, or the like.

For example, when a virtual character corresponding to a player in virtual reality moves to a location where an item is provided and occupies a location where the item is provided, the virtual character may acquire the item.

Referring to FIG. 9, when the player is located in the first position (X,Y,Z), in virtual reality, the virtual character may be located in the first position (X,Y,Z) in virtual reality. Also, the item may be located in the second position (X, Y, Z) in virtual reality.

When the player moves from the first position to the second position (X, Y, Z), the virtual character may move from the virtual reality to the second position (X, Y, Z).

When the location of the virtual character is within a predetermined distance from the location where the item is provided, the auxiliary computing device 300 may set the virtual character to obtain the item.

As another example, when a virtual character corresponding to a player touches an item in virtual reality, the virtual character may acquire the item.

When the distance between the virtual character and the item is separated by more than the distance at which the virtual character can touch the item, the player may move and move the virtual character to the distance at which the item can be touched, and obtain the item by touching the item.

When at least a part of the rendered appearance of the virtual character is within a predetermined distance from the rendered appearance of the item, the auxiliary computing device 300 may set the virtual character to acquire the item.

For example, a distance between one of the coordinates of the rendered image constituting the appearance of a virtual character, such as hands, feet, and head, and one of the coordinates of the rendered image constituting the appearance of the item, is predetermined. If it is within the distance, it can be set as the virtual character acquired the item.

Alternatively, the auxiliary computing device 300 may determine that the virtual character has acquired the item when the representative position of the body part of the virtual character is within a predetermined distance from the representative position of the item.

For example, when the representative position of the virtual character's hand is within a predetermined distance from the representative position of the item, it may be determined that the virtual character has acquired the item.

When a virtual character touches an item to obtain an item, the image of the virtual object, the setting of the virtual character, and the quantity of items owned by the virtual character may be changed according to the acquired item.

As an example, when the item is a weapon, the auxiliary computing device 300 may change the weapon used by the virtual character into an acquired weapon, and may change the image of the weapon provided in virtual reality into an acquired image and control it to output. .

In addition, when a weapon is acquired, the auxiliary computing device 300 may change settings for an image output when using a weapon and a damage inflicted to a victim when a weapon is attacked to a setting corresponding to the acquired item.

More specifically, for example, if the current weapon is a rifle and the acquired item is a laser gun, for example, the auxiliary computing device 300 may change the image of the weapon possessed by the virtual character from the image of the rifle to the image of the laser gun. It is possible to change the setting for the dame applied to the victim during the event from the setting for the rifle to the setting for the laser gun.

As another example, when the item is a physical strength recovery item, the auxiliary computing device 300 may set the HP of the virtual character by adding an HP value assigned to the item from the current HP of the virtual character.

As another example, when the item is a consumable item such as an ammunition or a grenade, the auxiliary computing device 300 may add and set the quantity of the corresponding item by the quantity given to the item in the virtual character.

As another example, when the item is a buff item, the auxiliary computing device 300 may set a corresponding buff to a virtual character.

In addition, the first player may be an arbitrary player among a plurality of players, and the second player may be an arbitrary player among other players other than the first player among the plurality of players.

For example, when the coordinate information of the first player is (1,1,1) and the coordinate information of the second player is (5,1,1), the distance between the first player and the second player may be calculated as 4.

When the calculated distance between players is within a predetermined distance, the auxiliary computing device 300 may determine that the players are concentrated.

For example, as shown in FIG. 13, a predetermined area in which the player is located in the virtual reality may be set as the dense area.

Referring back to FIG. 16, in the case of NPC attacks and debuffs, an event may be provided for one point, but in some cases, an event may be provided in a wide area.

As an example, a predetermined radius around a specific location may be set as the event area. Also, when an event occurs, the auxiliary computing device 300 may apply the event to a virtual character located in the event area.

For example, when the event is an attack by an NPC, the auxiliary computing device 300 may deduct a predetermined value from the HP of the virtual character located in the event area.

As another example, in case of an event debuff, the auxiliary computing device 300 may apply the corresponding debuff to a virtual character located in the event area.

For example, when the debuff is damage reduction, the auxiliary computing device 300 may apply the damage of the virtual character located in the event area by subtracting the damage of the virtual character by a value set in the corresponding debuff.

Alternatively, when the first player is in the first position, the second player is in the second position, and the third player is in the third position, the auxiliary computing device 300 is the center point of the first position, the second position, and the third position. It can be controlled to generate an attack event.

Accordingly, the first player, the second player, and the third player can move dispersively from the dense location to avoid the attack event.

In the above, the configuration and features of the present invention have been described based on the embodiments according to the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various changes or modifications can be made within the spirit and scope of the present invention. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and therefore, such changes or modifications are found to belong to the appended claims.
