Problems solved by technology

However, this simple 2D avatar model does not produce realistic video sequences
[0010] In order to create 3D avatar models, as described above, generally complex and interactive techniques are required, which are too difficult for the average user

Embodiment Construction

[0018] In the following description, for the purpose of illustration and not limitation, specific details are listed, such as specific structures, interfaces, technologies, etc., to provide a complete understanding of the present invention. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be implemented in other embodiments different from these specific details. In addition, for the sake of brevity and clarity, detailed descriptions of well-known devices, circuits, and methods are omitted to avoid unclear description of the present invention due to unnecessary details.

[0019] in figure 1 , An overall view of the mobile communication system 10 is shown. The network includes a mobile station (MS) 20, which can be connected to different base station subsystems 30. Base stations (BS) 30 are interconnected through a network 40. The network 40 may be a wide area network, such as a public telephone network / cellular switching network, or an Internet rou...

Abstract

A method and system for avatar mobile video communications are disclosed. Since the creation and realistic driving of avatars (70) may not be done fully automatically with in a mobile communication device (60) (e.g., a cellular phone), an avatar database (80) is provided along with realistic driving mechanisms. Mobile callers may select appropriate downloadable avatars for using during a mobile video communication. The avatar database is provided as a global resource for the mobile video commutation system.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile video communication. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method and system including a global avatar database for mobile video communication networks. Background technique [0002] Video communication networks have made it possible to exchange information in virtual environments. One way to achieve this is to use an avatar. Avatars allow users to communicate and interact with other users in the virtual world. [0003] The avatar can take many different shapes according to user requirements, for example, a talking head, a cartoon, an animal, or a three-dimensional image of the user. For other users in the virtual world, the avatar is a graphical representation of the user. When the user who controls the avatar logs in to or interacts with the virtual world through a personal computer or a mobile phone, for example, the avatar can be used in virtual reality. [0004] As described above, the talkin...
