Microsoft's new VR patent approved: can map user body movements to improve immersive experience

IT House News on October 19th, according to a list published by the United States Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO), Microsoft recently obtained a technology patent that can dynamically map the user’s body and joint movements in the virtual world , thereby further improving the immersive experience.

If this Microsoft technology can be applied to head-mounted displays, users can create ultra-realistic virtual selves, which can improve the immersive experience in different scenarios such as social networking and games.

IT House, based on the patent description, briefly summarizes the working principle of the patent as follows:

• Receive data about the location of different body parts of human users through sensors.
• Set relevant rules to connect the virtual model and the headset wearer (mapping constraints).

• Simultaneously estimate the pose of the model and target using position data and mapping constraints.
• The technology also uses machines trained to optimize poses using positioning data with the correct model representation labels.
• Finally, it displays the target representation and its pose as a virtual representation of the human user.
