AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Conventional methods of displaying speech bubbles above non-player objects in games fail to effectively attract user attention, necessitating a more engaging approach.
Method used
An information processing program that transforms non-player objects into shapes like characters or symbols based on proximity and orientation to the player object, accompanied by message display and gradual deformation, using voxel data for shape interpolation.
Benefits of technology
Enhances user attention by intuitively conveying directions and information through shape transformation and messaging, reducing data storage needs and maintaining natural object appearance.

Abstract
To attract more attention of a user to a non-player object.SOLUTION: An information processing system arranges a player object and a non-player object in a virtual space. The information processing system moves the player object in the virtual space on the basis of a user input. The non-player object is deformed from a first shape to a second shape simulating a character or a sign according to conditions including a condition that the player object is positioned within a range near the non-player object, and / or a condition that the player object is facing the non-player object.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 16
