3D Application Virtual Screen for Immersive Live Content
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing 3D application systems face complexity in video switching and poor visual effects when displaying additional content alongside interactive applications, as they often require users to open a small window for secondary content, disrupting the immersive experience.
Innovation Solution
A content presenting method that allows user equipment to start a 3D application, receive a content source address from a 3D application server, obtain and render audio and video data from a content providing server, and display video content on a virtual screen within the 3D application, eliminating the need for a separate window and enhancing visual quality.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a small window is opened in the corner for viewing other content, then users can view additional content while using the 3D interactive application, but the visual effect is very poor due to planarized presentation
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from planar 2D display in a small window to 3D spatial display by rendering video content on a virtual screen within the 3D application environment. This dimensional change allows the video content to be presented in three-dimensional space, significantly improving visual effects while maintaining the ability to view additional content simultaneously.
2Adaptability or versatility
If video switching is performed to display another application or video, then users can view different content, but the operations become very complex
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges the video playback function with the 3D interactive application by integrating a virtual screen directly into the application environment. Users can switch between viewing the 3D application and video content through a unified interface without needing to manually switch between separate applications or windows, thereby reducing operational complexity while maintaining content versatility.
3Device complexity
If a small window is used for presenting additional content, then the interface remains simple, but the immersive experience is disrupted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the planar small window with a virtual screen rendered in three-dimensional space within the 3D application. This maintains interface simplicity while significantly enhancing the immersive experience, as the video content is displayed in the same spatial environment as the 3D application rather than in a separate 2D window that breaks immersion.

AI summary
A content presenting method includes: starting a 3D application, in response to an instruction, a 3D application presenting a simulated object of an end user and a virtual screen for displaying live content in a virtual environment; receiving a content source address of the live content that is provided by another user equipment on an anchor to a content providing server, and that is currently broadcasted on the content providing server; obtaining audio data and video data of the live content from the content providing server, based on the content source address; rendering the audio data and the video data to obtain video content and audio content; playing the audio content in the 3D application; obtaining content of interaction between the anchor of the video content displayed using the virtual screen and the simulated object; and displaying the video content and the content of interaction on the virtual screen.
