Abstract

Disclosed are a virtual world processing device and method. By way of example, data collected from the real world is converted to binary form data which is then transmitted, or is converted to XML data, or the converted XML data is further converted to binary form data which is then transmitted, thereby allowing the data transmission rate to be increased and a low bandwidth to be used, and, in the case of a data-receiving adaptation RV engine, the complexity of the adaptation RV engine can be reduced as there is no need to include an XML parser.

TECHNICAL FIELD

Example embodiments relate to a method and apparatus for processing a virtual world, and more particularly to, a method and apparatus for applying information of a real world to a virtual world.

BACKGROUND ART

Currently, an interest in experience-type games has been increasing. Microsoft Corporation introduced “Project Natal” at the “E3 2009” Press Conference. “Project Natal” may provide a user body motion capturing function, a face recognition function, and a voice recognition function by combining Microsoft's Xbox 360 game console with a separate sensor device consisting of a depth/color camera and a microphone array, thereby enabling a user to interact with a virtual world without a dedicated controller. Also, Sony Corporation introduced “Wand” which is an experience-type game motion controller. The “Wand” enables interaction with a virtual world through input of a motion trajectory of a controller by applying, to the PlayStation 3 game console, a location/direction sensing technology obtained by combining a color camera, a marker, and an ultrasonic sensor.
The interaction between a real world and a virtual world has two directions. In one direction, data information obtained by a sensor in the real world may be reflected to the virtual world. In the other direction, data information obtained from the virtual world may be reflected to the real world using an actuator. Embodiments suggest a control system, control method, and commanding structure for applying data obtained through a sensor in the real world to the virtual world, to achieve the interaction between the real world and the virtual world.

Referring to FIG. 13, the syntax 500 of the sensor capability base type may include a diagram 510, attributes 520, and a source 530.
The diagram 510 may include a diagram of the sensor capability base type.
The attributes 520 may include sensor capability base attributes and any attributes.
The source 530 may be a program representing the sensor capability base type using an extensible markup language (XML). However, the source 530 shown in FIG. 13 is suggested by way of example but not limiting.
FIG. 14 illustrates syntax 600 of sensor capability base attributes according to example embodiments.
Referring to FIG. 14, the syntax 600 of the sensor capability base attributes may include a diagram 610, attributes 620, and a source 630.
The diagram 610 may include a diagram of the sensor capability base attributes.
The attributes 620 may include a unit 601, a maximum value 602, a minimum value 603, an offset 604, a number of levels 605, a sensitivity 606, a signal to noise ratio (SNR) 607, and an accuracy 608.
The unit 601 is a unit of values measured by a sensor. Depending on embodiments, for example, when the sensor is a thermometer, the unit 601 may be Celsius (° C.) and Fahrenheit (° F.). When the sensor is a speed sensor, the unit 601 may be kilometers per hour (km/h) and meters per second (m/s).
The maximum value 602 and the minimum value 603 denote a maximum value and a minimum value measurable by the sensor, respectively. Depending on embodiments, for example, when the sensor is a thermometer, the maximum value 602 may be 50° C. and the minimum value 603 may be 0° C. Even in the same type of sensor, for example, the thermometer, the maximum value 602 and the minimum value 603 may be varied according to use and function of the sensor.
The offset 604 denotes an offset value added to a value measured by the sensor to obtain an absolute value. Depending on embodiments, for example, presuming that the sensor is a speed sensor and a user or an object of a real world stays still, when a value other than zero is measured as speed, the sensor may determine the offset 604 to a value making the speed zero. For example, when −1 km/h is measured as speed of a vehicle of the real world, the offset 604 may be 1 km/h.
The number of levels 605 denotes a number of values measurable by the sensor. Depending on embodiments, for example, presuming that the sensor is a thermometer and the maximum value and the minimum value are 50° C. and 0° C., respectively, when the number of levels 605 is 5, the sensor may measure five values, that is, 10° C., 20° C., 30° C., 40° C., and 50° C. Even when temperature of the real world is 27° C., not only when 20° C., the temperature may be measured as 20° C. through round-down. Alternative, in this case, the temperature may be measured as 30° C. through roundup.
The sensitivity 606 denotes a minimum input value required for the sensor to measure an output value. Depending on embodiments, for example, when the sensor is a thermometer and the sensitivity 606 is 1° C., the sensor may not measure a temperature change less than 1° C. but measure only the temperature change of at least 1° C.
The SNR 607 denotes a relative degree of a signal measured by the sensor with respect to a noise. Depending on embodiments, presuming that the sensor is a microphone to measure and a vocal sound of the user of the real world is to be measured, when an ambient noise is large, the SNR 607 of the sensor may be relatively small.
The accuracy 608 denotes an error of the sensor. Depending on embodiments, when the sensor is a microphone, the accuracy 608 may be a measurement error caused by variation of a propagation speed of a sound according to temperature, humidity, and the like. Alternatively, the accuracy 608 may be determined through a statistical error of the values already measured by the sensor.
Depending on embodiments, the attributes 620 may further include a position. The position denotes a position of the sensor. When the sensor is a thermometer, the position of the sensor may be an armpit of the user of the real world. The position may include longitude and latitude, and height and direction from a ground surface.
The unit 601, the maximum value 602, the minimum value 603, the offset 604, the number of levels 605, the sensitivity 606, the SNR 607, the accuracy 608, and the position, as the sensor capability base attributes, may be rearranged as shown in Table 3.

Referring to FIG. 10 again, the processing unit 320 may determine a first value received from the sensor based on the sensor capability, and transmit a second value corresponding to the first value to the virtual world.
Depending on embodiments, the processing unit 320 may transmit the second value to the virtual world when the first value received from the sensor is less than or equal to a maximum value measurable by the sensor and greater than or equal to a minimum value measurable by the sensor.
Depending on embodiments, when the first value received from the sensor is greater than the maximum value, the processing unit 320 may consider the first value as the maximum value and transmit the second value to the virtual world. Also, when the first value is less than the minimum value, the processing unit 320 may consider the first value as the minimum value and transmit the second value to the virtual world.
The virtual world processing apparatus 300 may further include a second storage unit (not shown) configured to store a sensor adaptation preference for manipulation of the first value received from the sensor. The processing unit 320 may generate a third value from the first value based on the sensor capability, and generate the second value from the third value based on the sensor adaptation preference.

Source 38-2 and Source 38-3 may include a binary encoding syntax the sensed information of the position sensor, the number of bits occupied by attributes of the binary encoding syntax, and a mnemonic of the attributes.
For example, the binary encoding syntax corresponding to the sensed information of the position sensor may include a priority denoting a priority of the position sensor. Here, the number of bits occupied by the priority may be 8 bits. A priority mnemonic may be uimsbf which stands for ‘unsigned integer most significant bit first.’
Depending on embodiments, the mnemonic may further include bslbf which stands for ‘bit string left bit first’ and Unicode transformation format-8 (UTF-8) which stands for a variable length letter encoding method for Unicode. UTF-8 may use 1 to 4 bytes to express one Unicode letter.
Table 1-0 shows a mnemonic of data.

TABLE 1-0

bslbf	Bit string, left bit first, where “left” is the order in which bits are written
	in ISO/IEC 15938-3. Bit strings are generally written as a string of 1s
	and 0s within single quote marks, e.g. ‘1000 0001’. Blanks within a
	bit string are for ease of reading and have no significance. For
	convenience, large strings are occasionally written in hexadecimal, in
	which case conversion to a binary in the conventional manner will yield
	the value of the bit string. Thus, the left-most hexadecimal digit is first
	and in each hexadecimal digit the most significant of the four digits is
	first.
UTF-8	Binary string encoding defined in ISO 10646/IETF RFC 2279.
vluimsbf5	Variable length unsigned integer most significant bit first
	representation consisting of two parts. The first part defines the
	number n of 4-bit bit fields used for the value representation, encoded
	by a sequence of n-1 “1” bits, followed by a “0” bit signaling its end.
	The second part contains the value of the integer encoded using the
	number of bit fields specified in the first part.
uimsbf	Unsigned integer, most significant bit first.
fsbf	Float (32 bit), sign bit first. The semantics of the bits within a float are
	specified in the IEEE Standard for Binary Floating Point Arithmetic
	(ANSI/IEEE Std 754-1985).

	groupID attribute.
groupID	Identifier for a group multi-sensor structure to which
	this acceleration sensor belongs.
priority	Describes a priority for sensed information with
	respect to other sensed information sharing the
	same point in time when the sensed information
	becomes adapted. A value of zero indicates the
	highest priority and larger values indicate lower
	priorities. The default value of the priority is zero.
	If there is more than one sensed information with
	the same priority, the order of process can be
	determined by the Adaptation engine itself.
activate	Describes whether the sensor is activated. A
	value of “1” means the sensor is activated and “0”
	means the sensor is deactivated.
acceleration	Describes the sensed value of the acceleration
	sensor in 3D with respect to the default unit if the
	unit is not defined. Otherwise, use the unit type
	defined in the sensor capability.
unit	Specifies the unit of the sensed value, if a unit other
	than the default unit is used, as a reference to a
	classification scheme term provided by UnitCS
	defined in xxx of ISO/IEC 23005-6 and use the
	binary representation defined above.

A light sensor type is a tool for describing sensed information related to the light sensor.
The light sensor type may include attributes such as a timestamp, a life span, a value, and a color.
The timestamp denotes information on a sensing time of the light sensor.
The life span denotes information on a valid period of a command of the light sensor. For example, the life span may be a second unit.
The value denotes information on a light sensor value expressed by a unit of light intensity, for example, LUX.
The color denotes a color that may be provided by the light sensor. For example, the color may be an RGB color value.
Source 41-2 denotes a binary representation syntax corresponding to the sensed information related to the light sensor according to the example embodiments.

FIG. 19 is a flowchart illustrating a virtual world processing method according to example embodiments.
Referring to FIG. 19, the virtual world processing method may store a sensor capability related to capability of a sensor in operation 1110.
In operation 1120, a first value received from the sensor may be determined based on the sensor capability and a second value corresponding to the first value may be transmitted to the virtual world.
Depending on embodiments, the sensor capability may include a maximum value and a minimum value measurable by the sensor. When the first value is less than or equal to the maximum value and greater than or equal to the minimum value, the virtual world processing method may transmit the second value corresponding to the first value to the virtual world.
Depending on embodiments, the sensor capability may include a unit of the first value measured by the sensor. In addition, the sensor capability may include an offset value added to the first value measured by the sensor to obtain an absolute value. The sensor capability may further include a number of values measurable by the sensor. The sensor capability may further include a minimum input value required for the sensor to measure an output value. The sensor capability may further include an SNR of the sensor. The sensor capability may further include an error of the sensor. Additionally, the sensor capability may further include a position of the sensor.
The virtual world processing method may further include an operation (not shown) of storing a sensor adaptation preference for manipulation of the first value received from the sensor. The operation of transmitting the first value may include generating a third value from the first value based on the sensor capability and generating the second value from the third value based on the sensor adaptation preference.
Depending on embodiments, the sensor adaptation preference may include information on a method of applying the sensor adaptation preference to the first value. The sensor adaptation preference may further include information on whether to activate the sensor in the virtual world. The sensor adaptation preference may further include a unit of the second value used in the virtual world. The sensor adaptation preference may further include a maximum value and a minimum value of the second value used in the virtual world. In addition, the sensor adaptation preference may further include a number of the second values used in the virtual world.
FIG. 20 illustrates a flowchart of a virtual world processing method according to other example embodiments.
Referring to FIG. 20, the virtual world processing method may perform initial setting to be input with information of a real world from a sensor in operation 1210. Depending on embodiments, the initial setting may be an operation of activating the sensor.
The virtual world processing method may store a sensor capability as information on capability of the sensor and a sensor adaptation preference as information for manipulation of a value received from the sensor, in operation 1220.
The virtual world processing method may measure information on a motion, state, intention, shape, and the like of a user of the real world through eth sensor, in operation 1230. When the sensor is incapable of measuring the information, operation 1230 may be repeated until the information is measured.
When the information is measured through the sensor, preprocessing with respect to the information may be performed in operation 1240.
Also, the virtual world processing method may control the sensor using sensed information which is a command for controlling the sensor in operation 1250.
An adaptation RV may determine a first value received from the sensor based on the sensor capability and transmit a second value corresponding to the first value to a virtual world, in operation 1260. Depending on embodiments, a third value may be generated from the first value based on the sensor capability, the second value may be generated from the third value based on the sensor adaptation preference, and the second value may be transmitted to the virtual world.
FIG. 21 illustrates an operation of using a virtual world processing apparatus according to example embodiments.

The RV engine 1320 may convert the VWI 1303 by applying information on the arm opening motion, the still standing state, the positions of hands and feet, the open angle of a hand, and the like, using the CI 1302.
The RV engine 1320 may transmit information 1306 on the converted VWI to the virtual world. The information 1306 on the converted VWI may include position information of arms and legs of an avatar of the virtual world, expressed by X_virtual, Y_virtual, and Z_virtualdenoting values on the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis and θ_Xvirtual, θ_Yvirtual, and θ_Zvirtualdenoting angles with respect to the x-axis, y-axis, and z-axis. In addition, the information 1306 may include information on a size of the object of the virtual world, expressed by a scale(s,d,h)_virtualdenoting a width value, a height value, and a depth value of the object.
Depending on embodiments, in a virtual world 1330 of before transmission of the information 1306, the avatar is holding the object. In a virtual world 1340 of after transmission of the information 1306, since the arm opening motion, the still standing state, the positions of hands and feet, the open angle of a hand, and the like are reflected, the avatar of the virtual world may scale up the object.
That is, when the user 1310 of the real world makes a motion of holding and enlarging the object, the CI 1302 related to the arm opening motion, the still standing state, the positions of hands and feet, the open angle of a hand, and the like may be generated through the sensor 1301. Also, the RV engine 1320 may convert the CI 1302 related to the user 1310 of the virtual world, which is data measured in the real world, to the information applicable to the virtual world. The converted information may be applied to a structure of information related to the avatar and the object of the virtual world. Therefore, the motion of holding and enlarging the object may be reflected to the avatar, and the object may be enlarged.
