Application: Display control device, display control method, and recording medium (Patent ID: US20240212304A1)
The patent filed by Sony Group Corp. describes a display control device that can place virtual objects in an augmented reality space based on real objects captured in images. The device includes a display controller that moves the virtual object within the augmented reality space in response to user operations. The system can adjust the size and position of the virtual object based on changes in distance and user interactions, such as tapping or holding the object.
The information processing system outlined in the patent includes circuitry to acquire images of real spaces, display virtual objects in response to user operations, and adjust the size and position of the virtual objects accordingly. The system can also change the attitude of the virtual object based on the attitude of the information processing system itself. Additionally, the system can detect user gestures like tapping or holding the virtual object between two operating objects, such as fingers, and provide feedback to the user when the size of the virtual object reaches a limit on enlargement or reduction.
