Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of virtual reality technology, and in particular to a social interaction platform for the elderly based on virtual reality. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of the aging process of the global population, the social needs and mental health problems of the elderly are becoming increasingly prominent. Traditional social methods are limited by factors such as geographical location, physical function and shrinking social circles, and it is difficult to meet the growing social interaction needs of the elderly. The development of virtual reality technology has provided a new social channel for the elderly. With the help of immersive virtual environments, the elderly can break through the limitations of time and space, interact with family, friends and new partners, enrich their social life, and improve their quality of life and happiness. However, how to make full use of virtual reality technology to create a social interaction platform that meets the needs of the elderly is still a problem that needs to be solved. Most of the existing virtual reality social platforms are designed for young users and lack attention to the special needs of elderly users, especially in terms of personalized services, emotional care and health considerations.

[0003] The current virtual reality social platform has the following shortcomings in meeting the special needs of the elderly. First, it lacks personalized user management functions and cannot provide customized services based on the interests, social habits and health conditions of elderly users, resulting in a poor user experience. Second, the creation and interaction methods of virtual scenes are single, which cannot allow elderly users to fully participate and immerse themselves in them. Third, the existing platform lacks the ability to adapt to the multi-dimensional social ecology and cannot intelligently identify users' social circles, interest preferences and emotional states, resulting in inaccurate recommended social activities and friends. In addition, there is a lack of context-driven social games, and the game content cannot be dynamically adjusted according to the user's current context, which reduces the user's sense of participation and satisfaction.

[0004] In view of the above deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a social interaction platform for the elderly based on virtual reality, aiming to promote the social participation of the elderly group, improve their mental health level, and make up for the deficiencies of the prior art in personalized services, emotional care and interactive richness.

[0117]

[0118] Where W(c) is the weight ratio of activity category c in the current recommendation strategy, c ′ is any activity category in the activity category set C, C is the set of all recommended activity categories, P(u,c ′ ,t) is the interest intensity or preference of user u for category c′ at time t. The higher the preference value, the greater the user’s interest in the category at that time point;

[0119] Recommended content update: Dynamically update recommended content based on the ranking results of weight W(c). The higher the weight W(c) of activity category c, the more likely it is to recommend activities of this category to users, thereby adapting to changes in user interests in real time;

[0120] Through the above content, a weighted analysis of the user's participation activities, evaluations and browsing history is performed, and the preference value is dynamically adjusted in combination with the time decay factor, thereby achieving real-time tracking and updating of user interests. It can accurately identify the changing trends of user interests and dynamically adjust the weight and sorting of recommended content, thereby ensuring that the recommendation results always meet the user's current interests. This personalized and dynamic recommendation mechanism not only enhances the user's sense of participation and satisfaction, but also makes the recommendations of the social platform more targeted and flexible, providing users with an interactive experience that is more in line with their needs.

[0142] Among them, α and β are the weight coefficients of behavioral data and physiological data;

[0143] Through the above content, it is possible to accurately capture the user's emotional fluctuations, combine natural language processing and physiological signal processing technology, quantify the user's emotional score. Through these emotional data, the platform can dynamically adjust social suggestions and activity content to ensure that the recommended interactions meet the user's current emotional needs. This personalized emotion monitoring and real-time adjustment mechanism not only improves the user's experience satisfaction, but also strengthens the user's emotional support, helping elderly users maintain a positive mental state and social vitality.

[0144] The context-driven social game units include:

[0145] Context recognition: Real-time analysis of the user's current context information, including emotional state, location (such as at home or outdoors), time, and social activity, and combined with the user's social ecological map to generate a context description of the user;

[0146] Dynamic game adjustment: Based on the user context description provided by context recognition, the game rules, difficulty, interaction methods and goals are adjusted to suit the user's current context;

[0147] Through the above content, the gaming experience can be flexibly adapted according to the user's current situation (such as emotional state, location, time and social activity), providing users with personalized social interaction options, so that users can obtain the social gaming experience that best suits their needs in different situations. Whether it is a relaxing leisure moment or an active social occasion, they can enjoy a gaming mode that fits the situation. This not only enhances the fun and sense of participation in the game, but also enhances the depth of interaction between users and others, making elderly users more willing to participate in social activities, thereby enhancing the overall attractiveness of the platform and user satisfaction.

[0148] Context recognition includes:

[0149] Emotional state analysis: obtain the user's current comprehensive emotional state score E(u) in real time;
