[0030] Immersive interactive devices include virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) devices. Existing immersive experience spaces often suffer from problems such as complex device layout, limited interactive coverage, and poor audio-visual synchronization. For example, traditional projection systems require multiple devices to stitch together the image, which can easily lead to edge distortion; motion capture systems are limited by the camera's six-view perspective and have blind spots.

[0031] Based on this, this application provides an immersive interactive game experience cabin, including an outer cabin body, a host 1, projector 2 components, a motion capture mechanism, and an audio mechanism. The central area of ​​the outer cabin body is the experience area; the projector 2 components include four projectors 2; the host 1 and the four projectors 2 are all mounted on the outer wall of the top plate 3 of the outer cabin body, and the four projectors 2 project onto the three side walls 4 and the bottom plate of the outer cabin body respectively, thereby covering a 270° surround view of the experience area and achieving all-around screen immersion; the audio mechanism includes multiple speakers 5, and the speakers 5 are connected to the top plate 3 of the outer cabin body to realize... Three-dimensional sound field positioning; the motion capture mechanism includes a PoE power supply device, multiple cameras 6, and a PoE splitter matched to each camera 6; each camera 6 is connected to the PoE splitter, and the PoE splitter is connected to the PoE power supply device via a single network cable 7. The PoE power supply device is connected to the power supply and the host 1; the single network cable 7 is used to simultaneously realize power supply and data transmission. The PoE power supply method simplifies the power supply line for the motion capture camera 6, not only integrating the power cable 9 and the network cable 7, but also making the equipment installation process more convenient and reducing the use of additional power adapters, further reducing installation and maintenance costs.

[0032] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This diagram illustrates the structure of the immersive interactive game experience pod described in an embodiment of this application. Please refer to it. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This application shows a diagram illustrating the installation location of the projector 2 according to an embodiment of the present application; as shown... Figure 1 Figure 2 As shown, the immersive interactive game experience cabin includes an outer cabin body, a host 1, a projector 2 structure, a motion capture mechanism, and an audio mechanism. The central area of ​​the outer cabin body is the experience area. The projector 2 structure includes four projectors 2. The host 1 and the four projectors 2 are all located on the outer wall of the top plate 3 of the outer cabin body. The four projectors 2 project onto the three side walls 4 and the bottom plate of the outer cabin body, respectively. The audio mechanism includes multiple speakers 5, which are connected to the top plate 3 of the outer cabin body. The motion capture mechanism includes a PoE power supply device, multiple cameras 6, and a PoE splitter for each camera 6. Each camera 6 is connected to the PoE splitter, and the PoE splitter is connected to the PoE power supply device via a single network cable 7. The PoE power supply device is connected to the power source and the host 1. The single network cable 7 is used to simultaneously achieve power supply and data transmission.

[0033] The motion capture mechanism, also known as the motion capture system, is a mechanism for capturing motion.

[0034] The projector 2 can also be referred to as a projection system.

[0035] The audio mechanism can also be referred to as an audio system.

[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, the multiple cameras 6 are installed at the connection position between the top plate 3 and the side wall 4 of the outer compartment. The multiple cameras 6 are arranged in a ring array, which eliminates the blind spot of the traditional single-sided installation.

[0037] An annular wire groove channel matching the outer compartment is provided at the connection position between the top plate 3 and the side wall 4 of the outer compartment.

[0038] The network cable 7 between the POE power supply equipment and the POE splitter corresponding to the camera 6 is laid in the annular cable channel, and is respectively connected to the POE splitter corresponding to each camera 6 in the annular array.

[0039] The inner side of the side wall 4 of the outer chamber can also be referred to as the wall surface. Specifically, the camera 6 is installed at the connection between the wall surface and the top of the chamber. The camera 6 points to the center of the ground of the experience area and covers an area with a preset radius, such as an area with a radius of 3 meters, so as to achieve full coverage of the experience area inside the outer chamber.

[0040] The PoE power supply device and the PoE splitter corresponding to the camera 6 enable power supply and data transmission for the camera 6 in the motion capture system, simplifying wiring and reducing energy consumption.

[0041] The PoE (Power over Ethernet) device is used to simultaneously transmit data and power to the cameras 6 via the network cable 7. The PoE device integrates network signals and power into the network cable 7. For example, an 8-port PoE switch can simultaneously power and transmit data to 8 cameras 6.

[0042] The PoE splitter is used to separate the power and data signals in the network cable 7. When the network cable 7 is transmitted from the PoE power supply device, the PoE splitter separates the power and data signals. The power signal is output to the camera 6 through the power interface to power the camera 6. The data signal is output to the camera 6 through the interface of the network cable 7, enabling the camera 6 to perform network communication.

[0043] Camera 6 collects player motion data, transmits it to the PoE power supply device via network cable 7, and then forwards it to host 1 via network routing. Host 1 processes and analyzes the collected player motion data and adjusts the state of the game scene or character in real time to provide players with a more immersive gaming experience.

[0044] An annular cable tray channel matching the outer compartment is provided at the connection position between the top plate 3 and the side wall 4 of the outer compartment. The network cable 7 is laid in the annular cable tray channel, connecting multiple cameras 6 set at the connection position between the top plate 3 and the side wall 4. This makes the layout of the network cable 7 more neat and standardized, which not only helps to improve the aesthetics of the wiring, but also reduces signal interference and potential faults caused by the tangling and crossing of the network cable 7. In addition, it also provides a certain degree of isolation from other cables (such as power cord 9, HDMI, etc.), reduces electromagnetic crosstalk between different cables, and ensures the signal quality transmitted by the network cable 7.

[0045] In some embodiments, the motion capture mechanism has eight cameras 6, which are arranged in an equilateral octagon. The eight motion capture cameras 6 are arranged around each other and point towards the center of the entertainment area, achieving blind-spot-free motion capture and covering an area with a radius of 3 meters, thereby improving the accuracy of motion capture.

[0046] During debugging, for the motion capture system, the calibration board was used to calibrate the camera's six parameters and test the multi-target tracking accuracy.

[0047] Figure 2 Figure 2 Projector 2 Figure 2 As shown, a first installation area in a straight line and a second installation area located behind the first installation area are provided in the middle position of the top plate 3 of the outer compartment. The second installation area corresponds to the middle position of the first installation area.

[0048] The host 1 is installed in the first installation area, and a projector 2 that projects onto the base plate is installed in the middle position of the first installation area; projectors 2 that project onto the left side wall 4 and the right side wall 4 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the middle position, respectively.

[0049] The second installation area is used to install a projector 2 that projects onto the rear side wall 4.

[0050] In some embodiments, the projector 2 is fixedly connected to the top plate 3 via the projector mounting accessory 12.

[0051] In some embodiments, the host 1 is fixedly connected to the host mounting accessory 13 and the top plate 3.

[0052] A projector 2 is installed in the middle of the first installation area to project onto the base plate, ensuring a good projection effect onto the base plate. Projectors 2 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the middle position to project onto the left and right walls 4, respectively, ensuring a good projection effect onto the left and right walls 4. A projector 2 is installed in the second installation area to project onto the rear wall 4, ensuring a good projection effect onto the rear wall 4. The content projected onto each wall by the different projectors 2 can cooperate with each other to form a coherent overall image.

[0053] Specifically, during system debugging, the image edges of adjacent projectors 2 are distorted by geometric correction and brightness compensation, and an edge blending band is set to achieve seamless splicing and cover a 270° surround view.

[0054] Projector 2 and host 1 are placed together in a specific area at the top, making the wiring more centralized and orderly. It also makes it easier to lay and manage cables such as network cable 7 and power cable 9, reducing cable clutter and crossing.

[0055] The top plate 3 is provided with a power cable 9 slot and an HDMI cable 8 that match the first and second mounting areas.

[0056] Four projectors 2 are installed at the top, outputting to the left, front, and right walls and the ground respectively. Each projector weighs about 20kg and the wiring is hidden through cable trays. The power cord 9 and power socket provide power to the projectors 2. The HDMI cable 8 connects the projection equipment and the PC host 1 to transmit the image from the host 1. The power cord 9 is laid in the power cord 9 tray, and the HDMI cable 8 tray is adapted to the first and second installation areas, making the wiring more concentrated and orderly.

[0057] In some embodiments, in the immersive interactive game experience cabin, based on the host 1 and projector 2 arranged in a straight line in the first installation area, and the projector 2 in the second installation area, the power cable 9 slot extends in a cross shape, corresponding to the host 1, the three projectors 2 in the first installation area, and the HDMI cable 8 corresponding to the projector 2 in the second installation area.

[0058] The power cable 9 slot extends in a cross shape. The cross-shaped wiring method can distribute the power to the four projectors 2 and the host 1 more evenly, reducing the crossing and tangling of cables.

[0059] In some embodiments, the HDMI cable 8 is laid out based on the existing top beam structure, without the need for a separate cable tray.

[0060] The number of speakers 5 is 2, the type is full-range speakers 5, which are suspended above the wall and achieve three-dimensional sound field positioning through phase calibration.

[0061] In some embodiments, the audio mechanism further includes an adjustable angle bracket, and the speaker 5 in the audio mechanism is connected to the top plate 3 of the outer casing through the adjustable angle bracket.

[0062] By adjusting the angle of the adjustable bracket, the height of the speaker 5 is aligned with the user's line of sight in the experience area. When the speaker 5 is aligned with the line of sight, the sound is emitted from a position consistent with the visual direction, making it easier for the human ear to associate the sound with the scene or object seen, thereby achieving more accurate sound image positioning.

[0063] During the actual debugging, for the audio system, a sound pressure level meter was used to adjust the volume and phase of speaker 5 to achieve stereo balance.

[0064] Based on this, in this embodiment of the application, through the precise layout and phase calibration of the stereo ceiling speaker 5, three-dimensional sound field positioning is achieved, and the sound and picture are closely integrated, further enhancing the realism of the scene.

[0065] In some embodiments, the top plate 3 of the outer compartment is provided with a first sound-absorbing plate 10 on all four sides, and the first sound-absorbing plate 10 is laid flat.

[0066] The top plate 3 of the outer compartment is also provided with a sound-absorbing panel grid 11, which includes a plurality of second sound-absorbing panels 10 arranged at an angle.

[0067] In some embodiments, SPC panels are installed on the outer walls of the silo, gray LVT flooring is laid on the ground, and curved corner posts are installed at the corners of the silo.

[0068] The projector 2 and the main unit 1 are placed together at the top and sound-absorbing panels 10 are used for sound insulation, which reduces the noise generated during operation and its interference with the viewing environment. The sound-absorbing panel grille 11 provides ventilation and effectively dissipates heat. In some embodiments, a display screen 15 is provided on the door 14 of the outer compartment for making reservations, displaying products, and introducing functions; LED illuminated signs can also be installed on the door 14 to display products.
