20130016379 | METHOD TO TRANSFORM A VIRTUAL OBJECT INTO A REAL PHYSICAL OBJECTAANM Lou; ZheAACI MortselAACO BEAAGP Lou; Zhe Mortsel BEAANM Van Broeck; SigurdAACI ZoerselAACO BEAAGP Van Broeck; Sigurd Zoersel BEAANM Van Den Broeck; MarcAACI Sint-Katelijne-WaverAACO BEAAGP Van Den Broeck; Marc Sint-Katelijne-Waver BE - A method to create a coarse-grained real physical object (RO) from a fine-grained 3D virtual object (VO). The method comprises the steps of selecting (RTVO) the virtual object, e.g. a character, or at least elements thereof (head, chest, arms, legs) in a virtual environment (VE), creating (CRBB) a bounding box for each element wherein the element fits, creating (CRTC) a texture cloud for each bounding box by taking a 360 degree snapshot of the element as delimited by its bounding box, applying (APIS) image stitching technology on the texture cloud for obtaining a distinct texture for each bounding box, printing (PRBB) the bounding boxes with their associated texture, and stitching the bounding boxes together. The printing step may occur on a paper printer whereby a cut-and-glue real physical object (RO) can be obtained, or directly on a 3D printer. The method is possibly completed by encrypting the real object with semipedia technology, thereby bringing the real object into the virtual environment (VE) and allowing a user can to use the real object for controlling its corresponding virtual object (VO). | 01-17-2013 |
20130188862 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR CENSORING CONTENT IN IMAGES - A method for censoring content on a three-dimensional image comprises a step of identifying in said three-dimensional image a three-dimensional object to be censored, and to replace said three-dimensional object to be censored by three-dimensional replacing contents in said three dimensional image. | 07-25-2013 |
20130300731 | METHOD FOR VISUALIZING A USER OF A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT - The present invention relates to a method, a related system and a related processing device for visualizing a user of a virtual environment in the virtual environment. The method of the present invention includes the step of generating a 3-dimensional user depth representation of the user to be visualized, based on at least one generated video stream of the user. In addition a texture of the user is determined based on the at least one generated video stream of the user. A subsequent step is generating a 3-dimensional user visualization by applying said texture onto said user depth representation and parenting said 3-dimensional user visualization onto a 3-dimensional host visualization. | 11-14-2013 |
