Apple's New Vision Pro head display Patent approved: private conversation can be opened in Virtual Environment
CTOnews.com, Nov. 8 (Xinhua)-- according to a recent list released by the US Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO), Apple has obtained a patent for the technology related to Vision Pro headers, which allows two wearers to have a private conversation in a virtual conference call.
Apple hopes that after the Vision Pro header has entered the computer generated reality (CGR) setting / environment, it can have a private conversation. In CGR settings, such as virtual meetings, you can map the virtual digital image of each user.
According to the patent description, in order to initiate a private conversation, the HMD / Vision Pro of the first user acquires sensor data from sensors (for example, accelerometers, gyroscopes, etc.) to indicate the motion of the first user. The draft patent attached by CTOnews.com is as follows:
Then in the virtual meeting, if the user performs the action of tilting his body, it is shown in the CGR settings to have a private chat with the second user around him, and the private conversation can be realized.
The method determines whether a private conversation is to be initiated between the first user and the second user based on the sensor data, and initiates the private conversation by providing an audio signal to the second user according to the determination of initiating the private conversation.
