Avatar Region Mapping for Mobile 3D Model Conversion
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The conversion of 3D model data for avatars from design-dedicated tools to mobile devices often results in errors due to format incompatibility, requiring designers to modify or regenerate the data, increasing time and cost.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a processor and memory that obtains character and asset data for avatars, generates region information to identify relationships between avatar regions and accessories or costumes, and stores this information to prevent overlapping errors, allowing for efficient rendering on mobile devices.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If 3D model data is converted from design-dedicated tool format to mobile device format, then the avatar can be implemented on mobile devices, but errors occur during conversion requiring designers to modify or regenerate the data
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an intermediary conversion process that includes format conversion module, verification module, and error handling mechanisms. The verification module acts as a mediator between the design tool format and mobile device format, checking for errors and generating additional information needed for proper rendering on mobile devices without requiring designers to manually modify the data.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent performs preliminary actions by converting and verifying the 3D model data format before final implementation on mobile devices. The system proactively identifies and handles potential errors during the conversion process, generating necessary additional information in advance, thereby preventing conversion failures and reducing the need for redesign.
2Reliability
If designers manually modify or regenerate 3D model data to fix conversion errors, then conversion accuracy improves, but time and cost increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements self-service through automated verification and error handling mechanisms. The system automatically detects conversion errors, generates additional necessary information, and adapts the data for mobile device rendering without requiring manual designer intervention. This self-correcting process maintains high conversion accuracy while significantly reducing the time and cost associated with manual modifications.
3Ease of operation
If 3D model data is converted to mobile device format, then avatar can be rendered on mobile devices, but file format incompatibility causes errors
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by systematically transforming the 3D model data from design tool format to mobile device format through automated conversion processes. The system modifies various parameters including file structure, data representation, and rendering instructions to ensure compatibility with mobile devices while managing conversion complexity through standardized procedures and verification mechanisms.
Data Source
AI summary
In one embodiment, an electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device includes a processor and a memory. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to obtain character data indicating an appearance of an avatar, to obtain asset data indicating a costume or an accessory of the avatar, to generate region information indicating a relationship between a plurality of regions of the appearance of the avatar and a location of the costume or the accessory, and to store the asset data and the region information in the memory.
