Mobile Terminal Scanning Object for Game Target Identification

The patent introduces a scanning object as an intermediary tool between the user and the game interface. This scanning object visually highlights target objects (enemies, items, monsters) in the game world, mediating the user's search and selection process. The scanning object acts as a visual guide that reduces the complexity of operating interactive applications on mobile terminals by automatically directing user attention to relevant targets.

The patent utilizes visual changes (color and appearance changes) of the scanning object to indicate different states and target types. The scanning object changes its visual properties to highlight different game elements, providing precise visual feedback to the user. This enables accurate target identification and selection without requiring complex touch operations, thereby improving operation accuracy while maintaining device simplicity.

The patent implements preliminary action by automatically performing the target search and identification function through the scanning object. Instead of requiring users to manually search and locate targets in the game world, the scanning object proactively highlights relevant targets in advance. This preliminary visual identification reduces the time users need to spend on target acquisition and allows them to focus on strategic decision-making, thereby reducing user time consumption while maintaining full application functionality.
