Panoramic Image Virtual Object Interaction System
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional panoramic image display technologies lack interactivity and entertainment value, limiting user engagement by only allowing panoramic image viewing without immersive experiences.
Innovation Solution
A panoramic image display program that sets virtual objects at specific locations on a map, allowing users to interact by changing their line-of-sight direction and location, with features like suggestion objects and bonus processes to enhance engagement.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If conventional panoramic image display techniques are used, then panoramic images can be viewed, but interactivity and entertainment value are limited
Solution Approach 1:
Virtual objects are predetermined and set in advance at specific locations on the map before the user begins exploring. This preliminary placement of objects and their associated information processes creates ready-to-trigger interactive experiences without requiring complex real-time generation or configuration during user interaction.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically detects when a user has found a virtual object and autonomously executes the predetermined information process without requiring manual intervention or complex configuration. The panoramic image display device itself manages the interaction flow, object detection, and information delivery, making the system self-sufficient in providing entertainment value.
2Adaptability or versatility
If virtual objects are set for panoramic images at multiple locations, then user engagement increases, but information processing requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system divides the panoramic environment into multiple discrete locations on a map, each with its own virtual objects and predetermined information processes. This segmentation allows the information processing load to be distributed across multiple independent location-object pairs rather than requiring simultaneous processing of all elements, making the system scalable and manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
Each location on the map has its own specific virtual objects and predetermined information processes tailored to that location. This local quality approach ensures that information processing is context-specific and only triggered when relevant, reducing overall processing load while maintaining high user engagement through location-specific interactions.
3Adaptability or versatility
If users must change line-of-sight direction to discover objects, then entertainment value increases, but user effort increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system provides immediate feedback when a user's line-of-sight direction aligns with a virtual object's position by executing predetermined information processes. This feedback mechanism confirms successful object discovery and guides future exploration behavior, making the increased user effort worthwhile through engaging interactions and information delivery.

AI summary
An example of an information processing system displays, on a display device, a plurality of panoramic images associated with locations on a map. Here, a predetermined virtual object is set for at least one of the plurality of panoramic images. an information processing system 1 determines one of the locations on the map as a current location based on a user operation. Where the virtual object is set for a panoramic image associated with the current location, the virtual object is placed at a predetermined position of the panoramic image. The information processing system 1 displays, on the display device, an image of a partial area of the panoramic image associated with the current location. A predetermined information process is performed in response to satisfaction of a predetermined condition regarding the virtual object while the panoramic image for which the virtual object is set is displayed.
