[0023] First, provide the term explanations involved in the present application: WebSocket: It is a network transmission protocol, located in the application layer of the OSI model, and can achieve full-duplex communication on a single TCP connection.

[0024] WebGL (Web Graphics Library): The Web Graphics Library is a JavaScript API used to render interactive 2D and 3D graphics on web pages.

[0025] Secondly, to facilitate the understanding of the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application by those skilled in the art, the related technologies are described below: Currently, the giving of virtual gifts on live streaming platforms is usually done by a single user selecting virtual gifts provided by the live streaming platform for giving, and the form of gift interaction is relatively single, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0026] Therefore, the embodiments of the present application provide a technical solution for synthesizing gifts in a live broadcast room. In this technical solution, gifts in the live broadcast room are synthesized through multiple people providing gift materials for collaborative giving, which can enrich the form of gift interaction in the live broadcast room, provide users in the live broadcast room with more diverse gift choices, increase the fun of users giving gifts, and thus improve the user experience. See the following text for details.

[0027] Finally, for the convenience of understanding, an exemplary operating environment is provided below.

[0028] As Figure 1 shown, the environmental schematic diagram includes a service platform 2, a network 4, and a client 6, where: The service platform 2 can be composed of a single or multiple computing devices. The multiple computing devices can include virtualized computing instances. The virtualized computing instances can include virtual machines, such as emulations of computer systems, operating systems, servers, etc. The computing devices can load virtual machines based on virtual images and / or other data that define specific software (e.g., operating systems, dedicated applications, servers) for emulation. As the demand for different types of processing services changes, different virtual machines can be loaded and / or terminated on one or more computing devices. A hypervisor can be implemented to manage the use of different virtual machines on the same computing device.

[0029] The service platform 2 can be configured to communicate with the client 6, etc. through the network 4. The network 4 includes various network devices, such as routers, switches, multiplexers, hubs, modems, bridges, repeaters, firewalls, proxy devices, and / or the like. The network 4 can include physical links, such as coaxial cable links, twisted pair cable links, fiber optic links and their combinations, etc., or wireless links, such as cellular links, satellite links, Wi-Fi links, etc.

[0030] The service platform 2 can provide services such as storage, reading, writing, querying, deleting, etc., such as providing services for the client to watch the live broadcast room and give virtual gifts.

[0031] The client 6 can be an electronic device running an operating system such as Windows, Android™, or iOS, such as a smart phone, a tablet device, a laptop computer, a virtual reality device, a gaming device, a set-top box, an in-vehicle terminal, or a smart TV. Based on the above operating systems, various applications can be run, such as an application for running a live broadcast room.

[0032] The client 6 can provide / configure a user access page for manipulating the service platform 2 or uploading an object, etc.

[0033] It should be noted that the above devices are exemplary, and in different scenarios or according to different requirements, the number and types of devices can be adjusted.

[0034] The technical solutions of the present application will be introduced below through multiple embodiments. It should be noted that these embodiments can be implemented in various different forms and should not be construed as being limited only to the embodiments described herein.

[0035] Embodiment 1 Figure 2 A flowchart of a live broadcast room gift synthesis method according to Embodiment 1 of the present application is schematically shown. It should be noted that the execution subject of the live broadcast room gift synthesis method in the embodiments of the present application can be a service platform.

[0036] As Figure 2 shown, the live broadcast room gift synthesis method can include steps S200 to S206, where: Step S200, in response to a first instruction for live broadcast room gift collaboration, create a collaboration session for gift collaboration and add the first account corresponding to the first instruction to the collaboration session.

[0037] Step S202, in response to a plurality of second instructions for joining the collaboration session, add a plurality of second accounts corresponding to the second instructions to the collaboration session.

[0038] Step S204, receive a first gift material uploaded by a first client corresponding to the first account, and receive a second gift material uploaded by a second client corresponding to the second account.

[0039] Step S206, synthesize a virtual gift based on the first gift material and the second gift material.

[0040] The method for synthesizing live - broadcast gifts provided in this embodiment creates a collaboration session for gift collaboration by responding to a first instruction for live - broadcast gift collaboration, and adds the first account corresponding to the first instruction to the collaboration session; in response to a number of second instructions for joining the collaboration session, adds a number of second accounts corresponding to the second instructions to the collaboration session; receives the first gift material uploaded by the first client corresponding to the first account, and receives the second gift material uploaded by the second client corresponding to the second account, and synthesizes a virtual gift based on the first gift material and the second gift material. It is possible to synthesize virtual gifts through the collaboration of multiple users in the live - broadcast room, enabling users in the live - broadcast room to give more diverse gifts, enriching the form of gift interaction in the live - broadcast room, enhancing the fun of users giving gifts, and thus improving the user experience.

[0041] The following combines Figure 2 , elaborates in detail on each step in steps S200 - S206 and other optional steps.

[0042] Step S200 , in response to a first instruction for live - broadcast gift collaboration, creates a collaboration session for gift collaboration, and adds the first account corresponding to the first instruction to the collaboration session.

[0043] Specifically, the live - broadcast room can provide a control corresponding to the first instruction. When a user in the live - broadcast room clicks the corresponding control, it is determined that the first instruction is received. For example, the live - broadcast room can present a control for gift collaboration in the relevant area for gift giving. After a user in the live - broadcast room clicks this control, it is determined that the first instruction is received. Of course, the first instruction can also be in other forms, such as a preset operation trajectory (such as drawing a circle), etc., which is not specifically limited here. When the first instruction is received, the service platform can create a collaboration session for gift collaboration and add the first account corresponding to the first instruction to the collaboration session. In practical applications, the service platform can create a collaboration session by creating a new room for gift collaboration. For each newly created room for gift collaboration, a unique room ID can be generated for identification.

[0044] In an alternative embodiment, the collaboration session can be established through WebSocket, which is convenient for real - time communication, so that all users who join the collaboration session can see the operations and status of other participants in real time, and realize real - time synchronization of multiple collaborative operations.

[0045] Step S202 , in response to a number of second instructions for joining the collaboration session, adds a number of second accounts corresponding to the second instructions to the collaboration session.

[0046] After creating a collaborative session, the collaborative session (such as a collaborative room) can be broadcast in the live streaming room, and other users in the live streaming room can receive the broadcast and join the collaborative session according to the received broadcast. For example, after creating a collaborative session, the service platform can display a notification like "User A is creating a collaborative gift, click to join!" in the live streaming room. After other users receive the notification, they can click the notification to join. In this case, the click of the user on the notification can be used to determine the receipt of the second instruction. Of course, the second instruction can also be in other forms. Some exemplary solutions are provided below: In an alternative embodiment, such as Figure 3 shown, the method for synthesizing gifts in the live streaming room according to the embodiments of the present application may further include: Step S600: Generate an invitation link based on the collaborative session. The invitation link is used to generate a second instruction when a click is received.

[0047] Step S602: Display the invitation link in the live streaming room or send the invitation link to the target account based on the sending instruction of the invitation link.

[0048] Specifically, after generating the collaborative session, the service platform can generate an invitation link according to the ID and related information of the collaborative session, and then display the generated invitation link in the live streaming room so that other users in the live streaming room can join the collaborative session by clicking, or the generated invitation link can be displayed in a predetermined area of the collaborative session, and then the user of the first account can send the invitation link to the second account; the service platform then sends the invitation link to the second account according to the sending instruction of the invitation link. Among them, when the generated invitation link is displayed in the live streaming room, the invitation link can be sent in the form of a bullet screen, and other users in the live streaming room can join by clicking on the corresponding bullet screen. Optionally, a control similar to "send invitation" can also be displayed in a predetermined area of the collaborative session interface. After the user clicks the control, the service platform generates an invitation link according to the related information of the collaborative session, and after the user selects the second account, the service platform sends the generated invitation link to the second account.

[0049] In this embodiment, by generating an invitation link based on the collaborative session, the invitation link is used to generate a second instruction when a click is received, and the invitation link is displayed in the live streaming room or sent to the second account based on the sending instruction of the invitation link, other users can be enabled to join the collaborative session through the invitation link, thereby facilitating multi-person collaboration to synthesize gifts in the live streaming room.

[0050] Step S204 , receive the first gift material uploaded by the first client corresponding to the first account, and receive the second gift material uploaded by the second client corresponding to the second account.

[0051] The specific material forms of the first gift material and the second gift material may be the same or different.

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the first gift material and the second gift material may include, but are not limited to, audio, video, special effects, models, images, and text. Among them, the audio may be voice, for example, the video may be a GIF animation, and the models may include 2D models and 3D models. After receiving the first gift material or the second gift material, the format of the gift material can be converted as necessary according to a predetermined rule to make the gift material meet the needs of gift synthesis; for example, an audio-video tool (such as ffmpeg) can be used to convert the audio in wav format to MP3 format; the gift can also be parsed to implement a preview function. For example, a 3D model can provide real-time rendering preview through a model loading library (such as webGL). For a GIG animation or other videos, preview rendering can be performed by automatically detecting information such as frame rate and duration.

[0053] In practical applications, after receiving the first gift material and the second gift material, the service platform can store the second gift material in a certain location and generate a unique URL (Uniform Resource Locator) for each gift material, so as to facilitate subsequent acquisition of the corresponding gift material according to the URL when needed. Optionally, after receiving the second gift material uploaded by the second client, the service platform can store the second gift material together with the first gift material in the CDN node close to the first account, so as to facilitate obtaining the second gift material from the CDN node nearby when performing gift synthesis.

[0054] Step S206 , synthesize a virtual gift based on the first gift material and the second gift material.

[0055] Specifically, the service platform can provide an editing operation interface for gift synthesis in the collaboration session interface, enabling the users corresponding to the first account and / or the second account to perform synthesis operations on the editing operation interface, and finally synthesize a virtual gift. The following provides some exemplary solutions: In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, step S206 may include: Step S300, create a timeline for gift synthesis.

[0056] Step S302, in response to an instruction to join the timeline, add the first gift material and the second gift material to the timeline to specify the start playback time and end playback time of the first gift material and the second gift material in the timeline.

[0057] Step S304: In response to an instruction for timeline adjustment, adjust the positions of the first gift material and the second gift material in the timeline to adjust the start playback time and the end playback time of the first gift material and the second gift material.

[0058] Among them, the timeline for gift synthesis can be a timeline with a duration within a certain threshold, for example, a timeline within 5 seconds, so that the synthesized gift meets the requirements for display in the live broadcast room. The specific duration can be configured by the users of the collaborative session or can be the default duration.

[0059] Specifically, the service platform can determine the duration of the timeline according to the operations of the users in the collaborative session, and then create a timeline for gift synthesis; or, the service platform can create a timeline for gift synthesis according to the default duration in the interface of the collaborative session. Then, the users of the collaborative session can add the first gift material and the second gift material to a certain position in the timeline according to actual needs, thereby generating an instruction to add to the timeline; after receiving the instruction to add to the timeline, the service platform adds the first gift material and the second gift material to the timeline according to the timeline positions corresponding to the instruction, so as to specify the start playback time and the end playback time of the first gift material and the second gift material in the timeline. For example, as Figure 5 shown, the start playback time of the gift material of voice can be set to 1.5 seconds, and the end playback time can be set to 3.5 seconds; the start playback time of the gift material of gift animation can be set to 1.5 seconds, and the end playback time can be set to 5 seconds. During the synthesis process, if the users of the collaborative session are not satisfied with the position arrangement of the gift materials in the timeline, the position can be adjusted. For example, the position of a certain gift material in the timeline can be dragged for adjustment. After receiving the instruction for timeline adjustment, the service platform adjusts the positions of the first gift material and / or the second gift material in the timeline to adjust the start playback time and the end playback time of the first gift material and / or the second gift material.

[0060] In this embodiment, by creating a timeline for gift synthesis, in response to the instruction to add to the timeline, the first gift material and the second gift material are added to the timeline to specify the start playback time of the first gift material and the second gift material in the timeline; in response to the instruction for timeline adjustment, the positions of the first gift material and / or the second gift material in the timeline are adjusted to adjust the start playback time of the first gift material and / or the second gift material. The various gift materials can be effectively arranged and managed through the timeline, improving the coherence and coordination of the synthesized gift, thereby improving the quality of the synthesized gift.

[0061] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 6 shown, the method for synthesizing gifts in the live broadcast room according to the embodiment of the present application may further include: Step S400, in response to a third instruction for material synchronization, obtain two or more target gift materials corresponding to the third instruction, where the target gift materials are any of the first gift material and the second gift material.

[0062] Step S402, set the start playback time of the target gift materials on the timeline at the same time point.

[0063] Specifically, an operation interface for selecting the first gift material and the second gift material can be provided, so that the user can select any two or more gift materials on this operation interface; and, similar controls such as "synchronization" can be provided on this operation interface, so that the user can click on this control, and when the user clicks on this control, it is determined that the third instruction is received; when it is determined that the third instruction is received, obtain the target gift materials selected by the user, and set the start playback time of these target gift materials to the same time point on the timeline. Among them, the same time point can be configured by the user, or based on the position of a certain target gift material on the timeline, synchronize other target gift materials to the reference position. Of course, in practical applications, other methods or interfaces can also be used to achieve a similar effect, which is not specifically limited here.

[0064] In this embodiment, by responding to the third instruction for material synchronization, obtaining two or more target gift materials corresponding to the third instruction, where the target gift materials are any of the first gift material and the second gift material, and setting the start playback time of the target gift materials on the timeline at the same time point, the effect of synchronous playback of several gift materials (such as the effect of simultaneous appearance of voice, text, and animation) can be achieved during the gift synthesis process, improving the diversification of gift synthesis.

[0065] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, the method for synthesizing live broadcast gifts in the embodiments of the present application may further include: Step S500, when a virtual gift is played in the live broadcast room, generate collaborator information based on the first account and the second account.

[0066] Step S502, display the collaborator information in a preset manner.

[0067] Among them, the preset manner may be to display it in the form of bullet comments. For example, if the collaborator information is users A, B, C, and D, then information similar to "the gift is jointly presented by users A, B, C, and D" can be displayed in the form of scrolling bullet comments. Or, the preset manner may be a special effect manner. For example, when the synthesized virtual gift is played, the IDs of each collaborator can appear dynamically near the playback position. Of course, the preset manner may also be other forms, which are not specifically limited here.

[0068] Specifically, after synthesizing a virtual gift, the user can send the virtual gift to the live broadcast room; when the virtual gift is played in the live broadcast room, the service platform can obtain the first account and the second account, and generate collaborator information based on the first account and the second account. The collaborator information may include information such as the user nickname, user avatar, user ID, etc., and the specific content included can be set according to actual needs. After generating the collaborator information, the collaborator information is displayed according to a preset method, so that the audience in the live broadcast room can know which contributors the synthesized virtual gift has.

[0069] In actual applications, the given virtual gifts can be stored in the records of the first account and the second account, and the user can replay them at any time; optionally, the live broadcast room host background can also record them and replay them as needed, or the live broadcast room host can select them and then display the selected gifts.

[0070] In this embodiment, by generating collaborator information based on the first account and the second account when the virtual gift is played in the live broadcast room, and displaying the collaborator information in a preset manner, the users in the live broadcast room can understand the contributors of the currently played virtual gift, thereby improving the enthusiasm of the collaborators of the synthesized gift and enhancing the user experience of the collaborators.
