[0022] The following section provides a detailed description of various example implementations of this scheme, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Example Environment

[0024] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an example environment 100 in which embodiments of the present disclosure can be implemented is shown. For example... Figure 1 As shown, example environment 100 may include electronic device 110.

[0025] In this example environment 100, electronic device 110 may run an application 120 that supports user interface interaction. Application 120 may be any suitable type of application for user interface interaction, and examples may include, but are not limited to, video applications, social applications, or other suitable applications. User 140 may interact with application 120 via electronic device 110 and / or its attached devices.

[0026] exist Figure 1 In environment 100, if application 120 is active, electronic device 110 can use application 120 to present interface 150 for supporting interface interaction.

[0027] In some embodiments, electronic device 110 communicates with server 130 to provide services to application 120. Electronic device 110 can be any type of mobile terminal, fixed terminal, or portable terminal, including mobile phones, desktop computers, laptop computers, notebook computers, netbook computers, tablet computers, media computers, multimedia tablets, handheld computers, portable gaming terminals, VR / AR devices, personal communication system (PCS) devices, personal navigation devices, personal digital assistants (PDAs), audio / video players, digital cameras / camcorders, positioning devices, television receivers, radio receivers, e-book devices, gaming devices, or any combination thereof, including accessories and peripherals of these devices or any combination thereof. In some embodiments, electronic device 110 can also support any type of user-facing interface (such as "wearable" circuitry).

[0028] Server 130 can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communication, middleware services, domain name services, security services, content delivery networks, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms. Server 130 may include, for example, computing systems / servers such as mainframes, edge computing nodes, computing devices in a cloud environment, etc. Server 130 can provide backend services for applications 120 that support virtual scenarios in electronic devices 110.

[0029] A communication connection can be established between server 130 and electronic device 110. This communication connection can be established via wired or wireless means. The communication connection may include, but is not limited to, Bluetooth, mobile network, Universal Serial Bus (USB), and Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) connections; the embodiments of this disclosure are not limited in this respect. In the embodiments of this disclosure, server 130 and electronic device 110 can achieve signaling interaction through the communication connection between them.

[0030] It should be understood that the structure and function of the various elements in environment 100 are described for illustrative purposes only and do not imply any limitation on the scope of this disclosure.

[0031] The following description will continue with reference to the accompanying drawings, which will provide some exemplary embodiments of this disclosure.

[0032] Example Interaction

[0033] The following will be combined with the appendix Figures 2A to 2F To describe an example interaction process according to an embodiment of this disclosure. Figures 2A to 2F Example interfaces 200A to 200F according to some embodiments of the present disclosure are shown. Interfaces 200A to 200F can be derived from, for example... Figure 1 The electronic device 110 shown is provided.

[0034] like Figure 2A As shown, interface 200A can be an interface associated with a target object (e.g., user X). For example, interface 200A can be the target object's personal homepage.

[0035] In some embodiments, it can be determined whether the target object is configured with a corresponding virtual object. For example, the target object can enable or disable the corresponding virtual object through configuration operations. In some scenarios, the virtual object may also be referred to as a "clone".

[0036] like Figure 2A As shown, if it is determined that the target object is configured with a corresponding virtual object, the electronic device 110 can provide an access point in the interface 200A for association with the virtual object.

[0037] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may associate identification information (e.g., image identifier or text identifier) ​​of the target object to provide an indication element 205 corresponding to the access point. For example, the electronic device 110 may display an indication element 205 around the avatar of the target object to indicate that the target object is configured with a virtual object, and the user can enter an interactive interface with the virtual object through the indication element 205.

[0038] As an example, after receiving a selection for indicator element 205, electronic device 110 can display as follows: Figure 2B The interface shown is 200B. Interface 200B can correspond to the interaction interface between the current user and the virtual object.

[0039] In some embodiments, interface 200B may support multimodal interaction between the current user and the virtual object. Such multimodal interaction may include a variety of interactions such as text interaction, voice interaction, video interaction, and image interaction.

[0040] As an example, users can input text, audio, video, and image content using the input controls provided in interface 200B, and can receive responses from virtual objects. These responses can also include text, audio, video, images, links, and so on.

[0041] In some embodiments, interface 200B may provide an interaction container 215 (also referred to as an interaction space) for supporting multimodal interaction between the current user and virtual objects. In some embodiments, the participants in the interaction container may include only the current user and the virtual objects. In this way, embodiments of this disclosure can provide the current user with a one-to-one space for multimodal interaction with virtual objects.

[0042] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also receive preset operations from the user on interface 200B and may switch to display interface 200C. Interface 200B is also referred to as the first interactive interface, and interface 200C is also referred to as the second interactive interface.

[0043] like Figure 2C As shown, interface 200C can be a second interactive interface with a second virtual object, wherein the second virtual object corresponds to another object different from the target object (e.g., user Y). For example, electronic device 110 can switch to displaying an interactive interface with other virtual objects based on a swipe operation received by the user in a predetermined direction in interface 200B.

[0044] Based on this approach, the embodiments of this disclosure can further facilitate users to switch to interacting with different virtual objects, thereby improving interaction efficiency.

[0045] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also provide access to the virtual object in other suitable ways. (Continue to refer to...) Figure 2A In the case where interface 200A is the personal homepage of the target object, electronic device 110 can also present visual elements associated with the virtual object in the background area 210 of the personal homepage, so that the background area corresponds to the access entry.

[0046] As an example, such as Figure 2A As shown, the electronic device 110 can display the visual image of a virtual object and / or corresponding text information (e.g., a personal introduction) in the background area 210. The electronic device 110 can, for example, present such a display based on user interaction with the background area 210. Figure 2B The interface 200B shown is designed to support multimodal interaction between the current user and virtual objects.

[0047] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also provide access points in other interfaces associated with the target object.

[0048] Figure 2D An example interface 200D according to some embodiments of this disclosure is shown. Interface 200 may, for example, correspond to a viewing interface of work 235 of a target object (e.g., user X).

[0049] Similar to Figure 2A The electronic device 110 may, for example, associate the indicator element 240 with the identification information (e.g., avatar) of the target object. The indicator element 240 may indicate that the target object is configured with a corresponding virtual object. Furthermore, the user may, for example, access an interactive interface 200B with the virtual object by clicking the indicator element 240.

[0050] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 uses, for example, an indicator element associated with identification information to characterize whether the target object is in a live streaming state. As an example, in response to the target object being in a live streaming state, the electronic device 110 can modify the indicator element associated with the virtual object (also referred to as a first indicator element, such as indicator element 205 or indicator element 240) to a second indicator element. Unlike the first indicator element, the second indicator element corresponds, for example, to a second access point of the target object's live streaming interface.

[0051] Taking the display elements around the avatar of a target object as an example, if the target object is in a live broadcast state, the electronic device 110 can display the first style of display elements. Conversely, if the target object is not in a live broadcast state and a corresponding virtual object is configured, the electronic device 110 can display the second style of display elements.

[0052] In some embodiments, indicator element 205 or indicator element 240 may have a dynamic display style. For example, indicator element 205 or indicator element 240 may have a breathing light style.

[0053] In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also associate a text identifier (e.g., username) of the target object to present an instruction element 245 corresponding to the access point.

[0054] Figure 2E An example interface 200E according to some embodiments of this disclosure is shown. For example... Figure 2E As shown, interface 200E may correspond to the viewing interface of work 250 of the target object (e.g., user X).

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2E As shown, the electronic device 110 can also display an interface 200E associated with the target object. For example, the electronic device 110 can also present an indicator element 255 corresponding to the access point in the work playback area of ​​the interface 200E. As yet another example, the electronic device 110 can also associate the indicator element (not shown) with the identification information (e.g., work name) of the work corresponding to the interface (e.g., interface 200E).

[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2F As shown, the electronic device 110 can also display an interface 200F associated with the target object. Interface 200F may correspond to a viewing interface for media content 260. This target media content 260 may, for example, correspond to preview content of a virtual object associated with the target object (e.g., user X).

[0057] For example, electronic device 110 may display the visual image, text information, audio information, etc. of virtual objects on interface 200F. Furthermore, electronic device 110 may provide indicator elements 265 corresponding to the access point on interface 200F.

[0058] In some embodiments, the target interface for providing access can be an interface for presenting target media content in a media content stream. As an example, the media content played in interfaces 200D, 200E, and 200F can originate from a media content stream.

[0059] In some scenarios, a media content stream can also be referred to as a feed. For example, a media content stream might include multiple media items recommended to the current user. Furthermore, the media content displayed in the stream can change accordingly based on switching actions.

[0060] For example, interfaces 200D, 200E, and / or 200F can also switch to another media content in the media content stream based on a switching operation for the media content stream (e.g., a swipe up or a swipe down operation).

[0061] In some embodiments, the target media content provided in the media content stream may include media works associated with a target object. For example, interface 200D may correspond to media works published by the target object. As another example, media works associated with the target object may also include media works that the target object has favorited or liked.

[0062] In some embodiments, the target media content provided in the media content stream may include preview content associated with a live event of the target object. For example, the media content stream may present preview content of the target object's live stream. Accordingly, the electronic device 110 may also be associated with the preview content to provide access to the virtual object.

[0063] In some embodiments, the target media content provided in the media content stream may include preview content associated with a virtual object. For example, as referenced Figure 2F The media content 260 discussed here can provide preview content associated with the virtual object, examples of which may include, but are not limited to, the visual image of the virtual object, text information, audio information, etc.

[0064] Furthermore, it should be understood that virtual objects can be based on any appropriate technology to support multimodal interaction with the current user, and this disclosure is not intended to limit the driving technology of virtual objects.

[0065] Based on the interaction process discussed above, embodiments of this disclosure can provide an interaction entry point with the virtual object in the interface associated with the target object, depending on whether the target object is configured with a corresponding virtual object. In this way, embodiments of this disclosure can facilitate other users to perceive that the target object is configured with a virtual object, and can more conveniently initiate multimodal interactions with the virtual object.
