Problems solved by technology

[0004] When interacting, the direction facing the base station is the front. However, when the motion capture device is connected to Steam VR or other VR platforms, there may be a deviation between the front direction in the virtual scene and the direction facing the base station, resulting in a difference between the real world and the virtual world. In addition, because each person's height is different, when users of different heights interact, if the height positioning of the virtual object is the same, it will also affect the user's experience and poor immersion

Embodiment 1

[0031] figure 1 It is a flow chart of the space positioning method provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to VR interaction, and the method can be executed by a space positioning device, which can be implemented by means of software and / or hardware. The method specifically includes:

[0032] S110. Receive a control signal.

[0033] Wherein, the control signal is manually triggered by pressing or inductively triggering a control button on the locator.

[0034] S120. Acquire a first height of the locator relative to the positioning base station.

[0035] Specifically, the locator may be directly placed on the ground to obtain the first height of the locator relative to the positioning base station; The first height of the base station. Usually in VR interaction, the user needs to wear a head-mounted display on the head and hold a handle in the hand, and the head-mounted display is installed with a locator in a built-in or peripheral ...

Embodiment 2

[0047] figure 2 It is a flow chart of the spatial positioning method provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is implemented on the basis of the above embodiments. The method specifically includes:

[0048] S210. Receive a control signal.

[0049] Wherein, the control signal is manually triggered by pressing or inductively triggering a control button on the locator. The control button is the same as the control button in the foregoing embodiments.

[0050] When the control key is triggered, steps S220, S230, and S240 are executed simultaneously.

[0051] S220. Set an area with the positioning base station as a vertex as a user activity area.

[0052] Since the user cannot see the surrounding environment after wearing the head-mounted display, in order to prevent the user from going out of the positioning signal coverage of the base station during the movement, the size of an active area can be determined in advance. The cone-shaped area of ​​, th...

Embodiment 3

[0063] image 3 Shown is a schematic structural diagram of the space positioning device provided by Embodiment 3 of the present invention. The specific structure of the device includes:

[0064] a receiving unit 310, configured to receive a control signal;

[0065] A height acquisition unit 320, configured to acquire a first height of the locator relative to the positioning base station and a second height of the locator relative to the positioning base station when the locator is located at the position of the user's head;

[0066] a calculation unit 330, configured to calculate the difference between the second height and the first height;

[0067] An output unit 340, configured to output the difference to a processing terminal. The processing terminal can be a computer, pad, etc.

[0068] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the calculation unit 330 calculates the difference between the acquired first height of the locator relative to the positioning base statio...

Abstract

An embodiment of the invention discloses a space orientation method, device and positioner. The space orientation method includes the steps: receiving control signals; acquiring the first height of the positioner relative to a positioning base station; acquiring the second height of the positioner positioned at the head of a user relative to the positioning base station; calculating the difference between the second height and the first height; outputting the difference to a processing terminal. By the method, the height difference basically consistent with the actual height of the user is acquired, the problem of inconsistence of a virtual object in a virtual scene and the actual visual angle is solved, deviation between a virtual world and an actual world is corrected, and user experience is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of virtual reality technology, and in particular, to a space positioning method, device, and locator. Background technique [0002] In virtual reality operation, users wear a head-mounted display to watch videos or perform interactive operations. When interacting with Steam VR or other VR platforms, a motion capture device is required to cooperate with the head-mounted display for interactive operations. [0003] The working process of the motion capture device is: place a positioning base station in the indoor space to send positioning signals, and set a spatial coordinate axis. The user holds the signal receiver in his hand, wears a head-mounted display on his head, and A locator is installed on the wearable display. The locator can be built into the head-mounted display or externally installed on the head-mounted display. The locator can not only receive the positioning signal sent by the posi...
