Method and system for communicating gaze in an immersive virtual environment |
摘要 |
A method of communicating gaze. Specifically, one embodiment of the present invention discloses a method of communicating gaze in an immersive virtual environment. The method begins by representing an immersive virtual environment on a monitor that is viewable by a viewing participant. The monitor displays a plurality of objects in the virtual environment. The physical gaze of the viewing participant is tracked to determine a physical direction of the physical gaze within a physical environment including the viewing participant. Thereafter, a viewed object is determined at which the viewing participant is gazing. Then, a virtual direction is determined between the viewing participant and the viewed object in the immersive virtual environment. A model of the viewing participant is rotated based on the physical and virtual directions to render a view of the viewing participant such that the viewing participant is facing the viewed object in the immersive virtual environment.
