[0078] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0079] To facilitate those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the following is a brief introduction to the technical terms involved in the embodiments of the present application.

[0080] The terminal device is a front-end device that runs the game software and displays the game scene screen through a graphical user interface. In the embodiment of the present application, the terminal device can be but is not limited to: a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a smart TV, etc.

[0081] The game control device is an input device for controlling virtual characters and virtual lenses in the game. In the embodiment of the present application, the game control device can be but is not limited to: a game controller, a mouse and a keyboard, etc. The game control device is provided with multiple control components, and the functions of the multiple control components can be customized according to the player's operating habits. For example, taking the game controller as an example, the player can set the right joystick as the lens control component and the left remote control as the character control component, etc.

[0082] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. mentioned in this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such terms can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments described herein can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein. In addition, the term "and / or" mentioned in this application describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B may represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0083] After introducing the technical terms involved in this application, the application scenarios and design concepts of the embodiments of this application are briefly introduced.

[0084] See Figure 1 As shown, game control devices 110 such as game controllers, mice, and keyboards, as external game devices, can establish communication connections with terminal devices 120 such as smart TVs, desktop computers, and laptops in a wired or wireless manner. After the communication connection between the game control device 110 and the terminal device 120 is established, the player can perform game operations through the game control device. For example, the player can control the position of the virtual character by manipulating the character control component on the game control device 110. For example, the player can also control the position of the virtual lens by manipulating the lens control component on the game control device 110. However, in the actual operation process, especially when controlling the virtual lens by manipulating the lens control component on the game control device 110, since the rate of controlling the virtual lens by the lens control component is relatively fixed, when encountering a crisis situation and requiring emergency and rapid control of the virtual lens, controlling the virtual lens by the lens control component will be relatively inefficient and will also reduce the player's gaming experience.

[0085] To this end, in an embodiment of the present application, in the process of executing game operations through a game control device, when it is determined that the virtual lens needs to be adjusted, a posture control operation can be performed on the game control device, so that the virtual lens can be controlled based on the somatosensory control data corresponding to the posture control operation, thereby effectively solving the problem of low control efficiency of the virtual lens due to the relatively fixed rate at which the lens control component controls the virtual lens, effectively improving the control efficiency of the virtual lens and the player's gaming experience. Moreover, in the process of executing the posture control operation on the game control device, a first trigger operation can also be performed on the lens control component, thereby effectively preventing misoperation of the virtual lens, thereby further improving the player's gaming experience.

[0086] After introducing the application scenarios and design concepts of the embodiments of the present application, the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below.

[0087] The embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a virtual lens in a game. The method for controlling a virtual lens in a game can be applied to a terminal device. The terminal device can provide a graphical user interface and be connected to a game control device. The graphical user interface at least displays a game scene image captured by a virtual lens. Figure 2 As shown, the general process of the virtual camera control method in this game is as follows:

[0088] Step 201: receiving a first lens control instruction sent by a game control device; wherein the first lens control instruction is sent by the game control device in response to a first trigger operation on a lens control component and a posture control operation on the game control device.

[0089] In actual applications, players can select a control component from various control components on the game control device as a lens control component based on their operating habits. For example, using a game controller as an example, the player can set the right joystick as the lens control component. In addition, players can also select a control component from various control components on the game control device as a mode control component based on their operating habits. The mode control component can be the same as or different from the lens control component. For example, using a game controller as an example, the player can set the right joystick as both the lens control component and the mode control component. Furthermore, players can also set the control mode of the virtual lens through the mode control component based on their operating habits. Specifically, the player can perform a first trigger operation on the mode control component, for example, the player can perform a pressing operation on the mode control component; the game control device sends a first mode control instruction to the terminal device in response to the first trigger operation on the mode control component; upon receiving the first mode control instruction sent by the game control device, the terminal device sets the current control mode of the virtual lens to the somatosensory control mode based on the first mode control instruction.

[0090] Furthermore, after the player sets the current control mode of the virtual lens to the motion control mode, if the player determines that the virtual lens needs to be adjusted during game control, in one embodiment, the player can perform a first trigger operation on the lens control component and then perform a posture control operation on the game control device. That is, the posture control operation is a continuous operation after the first trigger operation. For example, the player can perform a pressing operation on the lens control component and then perform a rotation operation on the game control device. In response to the first trigger operation on the lens control component and the posture control operation on the game control device, the game control device sends a first lens control instruction to the terminal device. The terminal device receives the first lens control instruction sent by the game control device. In another embodiment, the player can also perform a posture control operation on the game control device while performing the first trigger operation on the lens control component. That is, the posture control operation is a concurrent operation of the first trigger operation. For example, the player can perform a pressing operation on the lens control component and then perform a rotation operation on the game control device. In response to the first trigger operation on the lens control component and the posture control operation on the game control device, the game control device sends a first lens control instruction to the terminal device. The terminal device receives the first lens control instruction sent by the game control device.

[0091] Step 202: Based on the somatosensory control data corresponding to the posture control operation in the first lens control instruction, determine the posture control data of the virtual lens, and based on the posture control data of the virtual lens, control the virtual lens to adjust the posture to display the game scene image captured after the virtual lens adjusts the posture in the graphical user interface.

[0092] In a specific implementation, when the terminal device determines the posture control data of the virtual lens based on the somatosensory control data corresponding to the posture control operation in the first lens control instruction, there may be but are not limited to the following three situations:

[0093] The first case: posture control operations include movement control operations.

[0094] In this case, the terminal device can determine the position offset of the virtual lens based on the position offset of the game control device in the somatosensory control data, and determine the movement speed of the virtual lens based on the movement speed of the game control device in the somatosensory control data.

[0095] The second case: the posture control operation includes the rotation control operation.

[0096] In this case, the terminal device can determine the direction offset of the virtual lens based on the rotation offset of the game control device in the somatosensory control data, and determine the rotation speed of the virtual lens based on the rotation speed of the game control device in the somatosensory control data.

[0097] The third case: the posture control operation includes movement control operation and rotation control operation.

[0098] In this case, the terminal device can determine the position offset of the virtual lens based on the position offset of the game control device in the somatosensory control data, and determine the movement speed of the virtual lens based on the movement speed of the game control device in the somatosensory control data; and determine the direction offset of the virtual lens based on the rotation offset of the game control device in the somatosensory control data, and determine the rotation speed of the virtual lens based on the rotation speed of the game control device in the somatosensory control data.

[0099] Furthermore, after the terminal device determines the virtual lens's posture control data based on the somatosensory control data corresponding to the posture control operation in the first lens control instruction, it can control the virtual lens to adjust its posture based on the virtual lens's posture control data. Accordingly, when the terminal device controls the virtual lens to adjust its posture based on the virtual lens's posture control data, the following three situations may exist, but are not limited to:

[0100] The first case: the pose control data of the virtual lens includes position offset and movement speed.

[0101] In this case, the terminal device can control the movement of the virtual lens according to the movement speed of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data and based on the position offset of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data.

[0102] The second case: the pose control data of the virtual lens includes direction offset and rotation speed.

[0103] In this case, the terminal device may control the rotation of the virtual lens according to the rotation speed of the virtual lens in the posture control data of the virtual lens and based on the direction offset of the virtual lens in the posture control data of the virtual lens.

[0104] The third case: the posture control data of the virtual lens includes position offset and movement speed, direction offset and rotation speed.

[0105] In this case, the terminal device can control the movement of the virtual lens according to the movement speed of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data and based on the position offset of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data, and control the rotation of the virtual lens according to the rotation speed of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data and based on the direction offset of the virtual lens in the virtual lens posture control data.

[0106] Furthermore, after the terminal device controls the virtual lens to adjust its posture based on the posture control data of the virtual lens, the game scene image captured after the virtual lens adjusts its posture can be displayed in the graphical user interface.

[0107] In an embodiment of the present application, the player can effectively prevent misoperation of the virtual lens while realizing virtual lens control based on somatosensory control data by performing a first trigger operation on the lens control component and a posture control operation on the game control device. Of course, the player can also realize virtual lens control based on operation control data by performing a second trigger operation on the lens control component. Specifically, if the current control mode of the virtual lens is the somatosensory control mode, the player can first perform a second trigger operation on the mode control component. For example, the player can perform a second trigger operation such as a long press operation or a double-click operation on the mode control component; the game control device responds to the second trigger operation on the mode control component and sends a second mode control instruction to the terminal device; when the terminal device receives the second mode control instruction sent by the game control device, based on the second mode control instruction, the current control mode of the virtual lens is switched from the somatosensory control mode to the component control mode. Afterwards, the player can perform a second trigger operation on the lens control component. For example, the player can perform a second trigger operation on the lens control component, such as a long press operation, a push operation at any angle, etc.; the game control device responds to the second trigger operation on the lens control component and sends a second lens control instruction to the terminal device; when the terminal device receives the second lens control instruction sent by the game control device, it determines the posture control data of the virtual lens based on the operation control data of the lens control component in the second lens control instruction, and controls the virtual lens to adjust the posture based on the posture control data of the virtual lens, so as to display the game scene screen captured after the virtual lens adjusts the posture in the graphical user interface.

[0108] In actual applications, when the terminal device determines the position control data of the virtual lens based on the operation control data of the lens control component in the second lens control instruction, there may be but are not limited to the following three situations:

[0109] The first case: the operation control data includes the control direction and control speed of the lens control component.

[0110] In this case, the terminal device can determine the directional offset of the virtual lens based on the control direction of the lens control component in the operation control data, and adjust the rotation speed of the virtual lens according to the set multiple based on the control speed of the lens control component in the operation control data.

[0111] The second case: the operation control data includes the operation duration and operation speed of the lens control component.

[0112] In this case, the terminal device can determine the displacement offset of the virtual lens based on the operation duration of the lens control component in the operation control data, and adjust the movement speed of the virtual lens according to the set multiple based on the operation speed of the lens control component in the operation control data.

[0113] The second case: the operation control data includes the control direction, control duration and control speed of the lens control component.

[0114] In this case, the terminal device can determine the directional offset of the virtual lens based on the control direction of the lens control component in the operation control data, determine the displacement offset of the virtual lens based on the control duration of the lens control component in the operation control data, and adjust the control speed of the virtual lens according to the set multiple based on the control speed of the lens control component in the operation control data.

[0115] Furthermore, after the terminal device determines the virtual lens's pose control data based on the somatosensory control data corresponding to the pose control operation in the second lens control instruction, it can then control the virtual lens to adjust its pose based on the pose control data. The specific adjustment method is the same as described above, and any repetitions will not be repeated here.

[0116] In actual applications, a game controller is a common game control device that is equipped with multiple control components such as a cross key, a left joystick, a right joystick, and ABXY function keys. Players can control the game by manipulating the various control components on the game controller. For example, players can control the virtual camera to rotate 360 ​​degrees by pushing the right joystick on the game controller in the 360-degree direction. However, during actual operation, since the speed of controlling the virtual camera through the lens control component is relatively fixed, when encountering a crisis situation and requiring urgent and rapid control of the virtual camera, controlling the virtual camera through the lens control component is relatively inefficient and also reduces the player's gaming experience. Therefore, the virtual camera control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used to achieve efficient virtual camera control.

[0117] Next, the virtual camera control method in the game provided by the embodiment of the present application is further described in detail with the specific application scenario of "the game control device is a game controller", see Figure 3a As shown, the interactive process of the virtual camera control method in the game provided by the embodiment of the present application is as follows:

[0118] Step 301: The game controller sends a first mode control instruction to the terminal device in response to the first mode trigger operation on the right joystick. The first mode trigger operation can be as follows: Figure 3b The operation of pressing the right joystick is shown.

[0119] Step 302: When the terminal device receives the first mode control instruction sent by the game controller, the terminal device sets the current control mode of the virtual lens to the somatosensory control mode based on the first mode control instruction.
