Solution Overview

Problem

Current technologies lack a reliable and effective solution to securely transition interaction sessions from a metaverse to a real-world environment to complete the interaction.

Innovation Solution

A system comprising a metaverse server and an entity server that generates and manages tokens to authorize interactions, allowing a user to initiate a session in a virtual environment and complete it in the real world by verifying user credentials and identities across both environments.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If interaction sessions are transitioned from metaverse to real-world environment, then interaction efficiency and user experience are improved, but system security and reliability may be compromised

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction efficiencyVSAvoidsystem security
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces token-based intermediaries (interaction tokens, completion tokens, user identity tokens) that mediate between the metaverse and real-world environments. These tokens securely carry authentication information and interaction state data, enabling reliable session transition while maintaining security through cryptographic verification mechanisms.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary authentication and session setup actions in the metaverse environment before transitioning to the real world. User credentials are verified, interaction tokens are generated and stored, and session states are pre-configured, ensuring that when the transition occurs, security and reliability are already established.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If token-based authorization system is implemented across virtual and real environments, then interaction security is enhanced, but system complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveinteraction securityVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The authorization system is segmented into distinct token types with specific functions: user identity tokens for authentication, interaction tokens for session management, and completion tokens for task verification. This segmentation allows complex security requirements to be met through modular, manageable components rather than a monolithic system.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The token-based system serves multiple functions simultaneously: authentication, authorization, state management, and security verification. A single token infrastructure supports both virtual environment interactions and real-world transitions, reducing overall system complexity despite the enhanced security capabilities.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

3Ease of operation

If seamless transition between virtual and real environments is enabled, then user experience is improved, but loss of information may occur during transition

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser experienceVSAvoidinteraction data integrity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSLoss of information

Solution Approach 1:

The system creates cryptographic copies of interaction state data and authentication information within tokens that are transferred between environments. Rather than risking information loss during transition, the complete interaction state is copied into secure token structures that can be reliably transported and reconstructed in the target environment.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #26Copying

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements feedback mechanisms where completion tokens are generated and verified to confirm successful transition and data integrity. The entity server receives and validates completion tokens, providing feedback that ensures interaction data has been successfully transferred without loss, maintaining both seamless user experience and data integrity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A system for transitioning an interaction session initiated within a metaverse to a real-world environment to complete the interaction session comprises a metaverse server in communication with an entity server. The metaverse server receives an interaction request from an avatar to initiate an interaction session with an entity within a virtual environment. The metaverse server generates an instruction token for a user instruction and a session identifier for the interaction session. The metaverse server obtains a user identity token from the entity and authorizes the avatar to interact with the entity. The metaverse server conducts the first interaction between the avatar and the entity and generates a first interaction token for the first interaction. The entity server validates the user identity token and the first interaction token from the user device in the real-world environment. The entity server conducts a second interaction with the user to complete the interaction session.
