Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current virtual reality systems lack the ability to provide direct and natural interaction between users and virtual environments, as they rely on simple two-dimensional displays and fail to simulate realistic user experiences due to limitations in interaction and visualization.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus for creating and controlling a user-centric virtual reality interactive human body model, which involves generating a 3D default model based on user data, applying skin texture maps, and using a deformable polygon mesh structure for natural motion visualization, allowing users to interact with virtual environments in a more realistic manner.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a 3D model is created based on user data with skin texture maps and deformable polygon mesh structure, then the degree of coincidence with the user's actual body is improved, but the complexity of the system increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-collects and stores user body measurement data, skin texture maps, and anatomical information in advance. When creating a 3D model, it retrieves these pre-prepared data elements and combines them using automated algorithms, eliminating the need for complex real-time scanning and modeling procedures.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates accurate copies of the user's body by mapping their actual measurements, skin textures, and anatomical features onto a standardized 3D human model framework. This copying approach achieves high fidelity without requiring complex procedural generation or real-time scanning infrastructure.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system collects and processes multiple types of user data (body measurements, skin texture maps, hand images) to create a personalized 3D model, then the user-centric interaction is improved, but the time required for model creation increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system collects and processes user data in advance, storing body measurements, skin texture maps, and anatomical information in pre-processed formats. When model creation is needed, it retrieves these pre-prepared data elements and combines them using automated algorithms, eliminating the need for complex real-time processing.
Solution Approach 2:
The system employs automated algorithms that self-configure the 3D model by automatically matching user data to appropriate model parameters, selecting suitable skin texture maps, and adjusting anatomical features without requiring manual intervention or complex user input during the creation process.
3Device complexity
If conventional 2D display systems are used for virtual reality interaction, then the system complexity is reduced, but the ability to provide direct and natural interaction is worsened
Solution Approach 1:
The system transitions from 2D display interfaces to immersive 3D virtual environments where users interact with three-dimensional models of themselves and objects. This dimensional transformation enables natural hand-based interactions and spatial awareness, allowing users to manipulate virtual objects as if they were physically present.
Solution Approach 2:
The system replaces traditional mechanical input devices (keyboards, mice, controllers) with direct hand-based interaction in virtual space. Users can naturally grasp, manipulate, and interact with virtual objects using their actual hand movements, eliminating the need for intermediary control mechanisms.

AI summary
Provided is an apparatus and method for immediately creating and controlling a virtual reality interactive human body model for a user-centric interface. The apparatus and method can transform a whole body three-dimensional (3D) default model into a model close to the body of a user by collecting data from the user's hands, generates a user coincident 3D model by selecting a skin texture map and applying it to the transformed model, and controlling the user coincident 3D model in a deformable polygon mesh structure to naturally visualize the motion of the user coincident 3D model. The apparatus and method can make users participate in a virtual reality system conveniently and work naturally in the same manner as reality, i.e., interaction. The apparatus and method provides ordinary users with an easy access to virtual reality systems and overcomes the shortcomings of existing virtual reality systems which simply provide visual effects.
