Description

How to Operate Virtual Space Same as Participants and the Environment {The Real Cyber Space}

In or out of the virtual space, the individual or multiple users enter the virtual space at the same time as their own appearance or set by themselves, subject to the application of the laws of physics and chemistry on the earth. Tried to develop a real-time virtual space realization method that achieves a certain goal as if it is felt on earth.

The present invention is a real-time motion simulation technology using the Internet to represent and adjust the three-dimensional appearance of the plurality of participants moving in real time in the virtual space.

In the related art, it was not possible to realize one's appearance in a virtual space in real time. In order to realize one's own image in real time, a series of images must be sent on a TV monitor, and the movement of objects in a virtual space is a vector movement of a specific object input three-dimensionally in advance, and thus it is not possible to connect the virtual space and the subject of the real world. In order for several people to exchange opinions or act over the Internet at the same time, they must select one of several pre-input objects to see and see the participant's face as a movement.

The present invention is to solve the real-time representation method of the three-dimensional image for the real-time motion simulation using the Internet to represent and adjust the appearance of the plurality of participants moving in real time in the virtual space in three dimensions.

1 is a system diagram in accordance with the present invention.

The present invention wants to sing in the square where tens of thousands are gathered, but it is difficult to go far from where it is currently located and the venue, or when it is invited to play on a stage where hundreds of thousands of people are gathered, On the huge virtual stage, people with the same look and voice as the real people gathered at the performance hall, and the crowd applauded, and all the people who participated in the actor's play appear in real-time on the stage in three dimensions as if they were real. This article describes how to build a virtual space where the voice of the voice appears in real time and is no different from a real theater. In addition, in the present invention, if you do not want to be a star in reality, you are not given a chance of a star, a team is formed with a close friend or an unknown third party, a band is formed, or a game is played. Not everyone who participates in the joint action of the group can meet in the current cyberspace where they are at their current location, but can see and hear each other in three dimensions and do what they want.

According to the present invention, a plurality of participants having a single purpose are gathered in one cyber space in the same actual form as they are, and in this space, they can perform any action as in society. Participants who agree with each other gather in cyberspace, discuss each other's roles while looking at each other's faces, and output each participant's appearance in cyberspace so that they can perform their duties. For this purpose, only the entire body of the person who should be completed except for the background input part except for the special part such as the body or the musical instrument that needs to move in the cyber space is printed in the cyber space by three-dimensional modeling in real time. In space, she works in the form of a complete three-dimensional image. In addition, in the cyber space, not only people or things that exist exist in the cyber space, but also virtual characters of any form such as people or animals designed in advance in order to perform specific goals such as Internet games, etc. Coexist with existing people to achieve certain goals.

Any participant in this real-time cyberspace will be able to appear in person, appear in a third party different from himself, use his own voice, or use his voice or modulate his own voice. If you do not want to appear in person, you can attend the cyber space as a spectator. Particularly, in cyber theaters where singers sing themselves, modulate the songs of other singers into their own voices, or modulate them into specific animal voices so that they sing along a predetermined rhythm, the participants do not need to sing at all. You can play your own songs by listening to other participants.

In addition, by replacing the characters in the movie such as the main character with a modeled object in a predetermined movie or game such as a music video or a screen, he becomes a hero without leading the movie and leads the story or game in the movie. You can be the hero.

In order to realize this, in the present invention, the two screens overlap in the weather forecast program of the TV, but in reality, only the body of the participant is left while following the contours of the participant's surroundings such as images of a plurality of participants as if a person is seen in a background The rest is made by using image processing techniques, such as erasing, to make millions of people identical to real people in virtual space.

The stage has gravity, wind power, temperature, strength of materials, elasticity, etc. that simulates the phenomenon of the earth, but the objects living in it make the body of the present world the same as real-time action in real time in three dimensions. But you will experience living in virtual reality.

The main character in the virtual reality is subject to concrete control of the objects in the virtual reality. For example, if you are walking together, if you meet a narrow road, you will bump into each other. If you do not yield to one side, you will no longer be able to walk. If you step on a mud pit, you will fall into it. If you don't, you can't proceed anymore.

As described above, the outline of the virtual reality intended by the present invention has been described. The following is an example that can be applied using the aforementioned method in detail.

1. Setting of Background

Background Setting: The preset background of any form of artificial, natural or imaginary is the physical and chemical world that gives the same or random characteristics to the earth as light, gravity, wind power, temperature, smell, material properties and intensity. "Stage".

2. Realization of Existing Persons in the Background

Real-time changing participant's appearance: Three-dimensional participant's analysis by real-time analysis of only participant's own image except background from image inputted on camera reflecting real person or target (hereinafter referred to as "participant") who wants to participate in virtual world The contours are interpreted and a model (hereinafter referred to as "Sprite"), which is the same image as the actual participant on the computer, is made to be an object having fast dynamic characteristics against a background moving at a relatively slow speed. A microphone along with the camera sends the participant's speech to the real-time virtual world so that the participant's real voice is heard on the virtual stage in real time. Participants can feel everything of other participants by receiving a system that can express and transmit human senses and send it to the virtual stage in addition to voice and appearance. An object in which the real-time participant's appearance, voice, and five senses appear on the virtual stage is called a "real-time sprite."

In the present invention, the sprite refers to an object in a virtual reality having the same shape, voice, and five senses as the participant, or a participant who is different from the participant, but randomly selected by the participant to participate.

Model the participants in the same way with the participant's photo: Front, side, back view of the participant who can draw the contour of the three-dimensional model in the program without transmitting his figure in front of the camera like a live broadcast of the participant's picture. If there is a recording tape that can be analyzed and reproduced, sprites are created from them, and the three-dimensional model data created here are involved in the virtual world to move, so that the actual appearance of the person moving and the behavior of the participants in the virtual world do not match. You can act on your own or with other participants on the stage. In the present invention, an object in which a participant with a fixed shape, voice pattern, and five senses appears on the virtual stage without transmitting the real-time view of the participant to the virtual world is called a "fixed sprite".

Virtual faces selected or designed by participants. Characteristics: Fixed sprites that participate in this virtual background do not refer only to real-world figures with the voice and five senses of the real world, but directly express their appearance by the choice of those who want to participate as objects to be embodied in the virtual world. You can choose to participate in the virtual stage by selecting sprites with different shapes, voices, and five senses. As described above, sprites different from participants are referred to as "virtual sprites" in the present invention.

3. Sprite movement in the background

Real-time moving participant's appearance: Participant measures the distance between real-time and real-time cameras and tracks the participant's movement at every moment moving in front of the characteristic transmission device that can express the image. Real-time modeling of three-dimensional contours (such as a wire frame) representing only the body of the game appears in real time in a preset "virtual stage" like a virtual game background. In this way, all the movements of the participants appear in the virtual stage in real time is called "real time movement".

Real-time movement with a small number of characteristic sensors attached to the joints of the participants.The necessary sensors are attached to the representative places that can express the participants 'behaviors, such as the joints of participants, without transmitting the contours according to all the participants' behaviors in real time. The participant moves. The sprites on the virtual stage will behave identically to the participants' behavior by transmitting the position sensor's position change in real time to move the joint of the predetermined sprite. As described above, only a part of the participant's movement is actually displayed on the virtual stage, and the part without the sensor is automatically output by the computer analysis.

Movement by Joystick, etc .: Synchronize the movement of the sprite with the joystick so that the participant does not move but only the sprite. As described above, the movement of the participant and the sprite is not linked at all, and only depends on the joystick, etc., is called "keyboard movement".

4. Voice of participants

The participant transmits real-time voice in front of the microphone so that the voice of the sprite is output in the same way as the participant's voice. The above method is called "real time voice".

The participant's voice is modulated in a direction desired by the participant, and the participant's speaking or singing voice is modulated and output in real time. Voice modulated in this manner is referred to as "modulated voice".

It receives a certain amount of voice from the participants, analyzes it, classifies it into voice elements, and outputs the necessary words or songs as electronic voices according to a predetermined program. In this way, the voice produced by the program is called a "program voice".

5. Send the five senses of participants

The five senses that can be felt by others participating in the virtual stage transmit the five sense sensors from the participant's place and output them to the sprite in real time, modulate them or output them according to a pre-programmed program.

6. Five senses of other participants

On the virtual stage, all physical and chemical characteristics of the earth are simulated and appear the same as the real world, so the five senses transmitted from other participants to the virtual world are felt in real time through the five sense sensors attached to the joints or skin of the participants.

At this time, the voice, the five senses, and the physical and chemical characteristics, which are the natural phenomena that occur simultaneously with the movement of the "participant", are processed in a computerized manner and operate in the "virtual stage" which is a predetermined physical and chemical system. For example, if a real person knocks on a desk on a "virtual stage," the desk is destroyed if the strength of the desk is not designed to beat the power of the knocking hand.

7. Scope of application

Remote Meetings-People from different locations come into a certain virtual meeting table and sit at a designated table where their appearances are relayed in real time. At this time, the background of the conference table is a virtual space, and the appearances and voices of the participants appearing on the three-dimensional screen reproduce the real-time situation of the real person.

Theater performance-The size and stage of the theater is a fictional space, and the singers, performers and spectators involved in the performance are real-time situations of real people. However, if the audience does not want to display the moving figure in the real-time virtual space, the user may have his or her predetermined three-dimensional model or virtual character set by the user participate in the virtual theater.

In the virtual theater, if a participant is confident in the song, the participant should sing in real-time voice, and if it is not confident, modulate the voice to the song of another singer as his own voice, or use the program voice in accordance with a predetermined rhythm. Sing

Even if you're playing drums or guitars, you can send the actual voice you play or play a song programmed for the instrument, such as a program voice, and you act in tune with the song.

Game-The stage or scenario of a game proceeds according to a preset plan. Objects and sprites participating in the game represent the actual appearance and movement of participants in the real world, or participate in a virtual form preset by the user's wishes to discuss, decide, and team with people who are simultaneously participating in different places. Enjoy.

Your movements and movements move in real-time virtual backgrounds in the setting of artificial structures such as large theaters, artificial, natural and imaginary worlds such as the grand nature of the Grand Canyon or the imaginary universe. The movement in the virtual world is the same or the same as you, but the movement is not your own movement but moves along the keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc. of the computer or appears in the virtual world. It has these specified characteristics, so it has a real-time motion that is identical to its own movement, or forms a virtual stage that is different in appearance and dependent on joysticks that are different from itself.

It is a virtual world where you can experience the same place, opinion, and specific purpose together without limiting the distance of the ground, but by being able to move and talk in the same way in real time.

Rally-A real place in a virtual place, such as a conversation between the president and the nation, and a church meeting, allows a talking crowd to come together, and a person on the stage can speak or play.

Market-Form a market in the three-dimensional cyber space, send the items that each person wants to sell, and then buy, see, feel and bargain in cyber space.

Theater, film-Participants gather on a stage and act directly. In this case, if the script is decided in advance, the programmed story can be shared with other participants.

The present invention analyzes the video and audio data of a specific star to match the video and audio of a specific star in a video (movie, animation), accurately analyzes and combines the video and data of the specific star. Monitor the situation appropriately and realize it virtually as if you were directing yourself and various objects appeared on the stage in the virtual space (3D) to produce the actions and voices that you want by using the controller. It is possible to realize the dream through the video media virtually to people who dream of a star by realizing the graphic to have a realistic feeling.

The present invention allows the user to become the main character of a specific cyber space and pursue everything he wants with everyone in the world.
