Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing methods for mapping a mouse in a virtual reality scene are prone to recognition failures due to occlusion issues and require cumbersome positioning apparatuses, making them inconvenient and inefficient.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that determine target information of a mouse model in a virtual reality system, update this information based on real-time movement data, and map the mouse model into the virtual reality scene, eliminating the need for additional positioning devices and improving interaction efficiency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a camera is used to capture images of the mouse for recognition, then the mouse model can be determined and located, but the recognition result is easily affected when the camera or mouse is blocked, leading to recognition failure
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual copy (mouse model) of the physical mouse in the virtual reality scene. This virtual model receives movement data directly from the mouse's motion sensors and updates its position accordingly, providing a reliable representation that is not affected by camera occlusion issues
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces movement data as an intermediary between the physical mouse and the virtual reality system. Instead of relying on visual recognition that can be blocked, the system uses motion data from the mouse to directly update the virtual mouse model's position, bypassing the camera occlusion problem
2Measurement precision
If a positioning apparatus is installed on the mouse to improve positioning accuracy, then the mouse can be located in the virtual reality scene, but the installation process makes it impossible to use the mouse conveniently and quickly
Solution Approach 1:
The patent enables the mouse to serve itself by utilizing its own built-in motion sensors and movement data capabilities. The mouse automatically provides the necessary positioning information through its inherent motion tracking functions, eliminating the need for external positioning apparatus installation
Solution Approach 2:
The patent leverages the mouse's existing multi-functionality, particularly its motion sensing capabilities that are already integrated into modern mice. By utilizing these existing functions for virtual reality positioning, the system avoids adding separate positioning hardware while maintaining accurate tracking
