Problems solved by technology

If the user does not use redirection, there is no way to determine the user's current orientation, so there is no way to ensure that the user sees a specific object
If the user uses the redirect function, the user cannot see the specific object because the specific object is not in the direction of true north
[0004] In addition, the existing VR application SDK usually realizes the user's control orientation change through the active movement of the user's head. If the user wants to complete operations such as turning around in virtual reality, it must be realized through head movement control.
This control method not only makes the user tired of operation, but also difficult to realize in places where it is inconvenient to rotate, such as sofas and beds.

Abstract

The invention provides a virtual reality-based user orientation control method and apparatus. The method comprises the steps of establishing a virtual object with a root node; setting a first orientation of the virtual object based on the root node; and controlling a second orientation of a user according to the first orientation of the virtual object. According to the user orientation control method provided by the invention, an initial orientation and a reset orientation of the user in virtual reality and a condition orientation of the user in a preset scene can be freely defined; the user can adjust the orientation through a handheld device; and the user experience of the virtual reality is optimized.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of virtual reality, in particular, to a method and device for controlling user orientation in a virtual reality environment. Background technique [0002] VR (Virtual Reality, Virtual Reality) is a technology that comprehensively utilizes computer graphics systems and various interface devices such as reality and control to provide immersive sensations in an interactive three-dimensional environment generated on a computer. It uses computer to generate a simulated environment, and uses the interactive three-dimensional dynamic scene and the system simulation of entity behavior to immerse users into the environment by using multi-source information fusion. [0003] The existing VR application SDK (Software Development Kit, software development kit) usually has a redirection function that uses a magnetometer to locate the user's orientation as true north when the VR peripheral positioning error occurs...
