Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
On the first hand, in order to solve the technical problem that in the prior art, a user can only be immersed in a self film watching environment, so that the film watching experience of the user is influenced, from the viewpoint of a VR user side, the embodiment of the invention provides a method for supporting a plurality of VR users to watch films simultaneously.
It should be noted that the method for supporting multiple VR users to view videos simultaneously provided from the perspective of a VR client is applied to a target VR client, where the target VR client is any VR client playing a target movie, that is, each VR client playing the target movie can be used as a target VR client, and the method provided from the perspective of the VR client in the embodiment of the present invention is further executed. In a VR theater, there are multiple VR clients, and different VR clients may play different movies or the same movie, and any movie may be a target movie.
It is to be appreciated that the target VR client can be communicatively coupled to a server responsible for managing each VR client; a sensor can be arranged on the target VR user side and can be used for acquiring the film watching information of each VR user side currently playing the target film; of course, the target VR client may also work alone, and when the target movie starts to be played, the preset target character avatar is displayed in the target cinema scene.
As shown in fig. 1, from the perspective of a VR user, a method for supporting multiple VR users to view videos simultaneously according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:
s101, acquiring film watching information of each VR user side currently playing a target film;
in the process of playing the target movie by the target VR client, the viewing information of each VR client currently playing the target movie can be acquired, thereby facilitating the proceeding of S102. It should be noted that, there are various ways for the target VR client to obtain the viewing information. For example, the viewing information may be obtained from a server that is in communication with the target VR client and manages each VR client, or may be obtained from a sensor installed in the target VR client; the viewing information can also be preset in the target VR user side, and in the embodiment of the invention, the mode for acquiring the viewing information is not specifically limited.
Specifically, if the target VR user obtains the film watching information from the server in communication connection with the target VR user, the server may count the film watching information of each VR user playing the target movie during the process of playing the target movie by the target VR user, and then the server sends the film watching information to the target VR user playing the target movie, and after receiving the film watching information sent by the server, the target VR user executes the subsequent steps according to the film watching information; it should be noted that, since the target VR client is any VR client that plays the target movie, any VR client that plays the target movie can receive the movie watching information of each VR client that currently plays the target movie, which is sent by the server, and execute the subsequent steps according to the movie watching information.
If the target VR user side obtains the film watching information through the sensor arranged at the target VR user side, when the target VR user side starts playing the target film, the sensor arranged at the target VR user side can collect the film watching information of the VR user side playing the target film in the VR cinema, and therefore the target VR user side executes subsequent steps according to the preset film watching information.
If the viewing information is preset in the target VR client, the target VR client performs subsequent steps according to the preset viewing information when the target VR client starts playing the target movie.
For example, in a VR movie theater, three VR clients, i.e., VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3, play a target movie at the same time, and then the target VR client may be any one of VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3, a server in communication connection with the target VR client may count the viewing information of VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3, and send the counted viewing information to VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3, respectively, and after VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3 receive the viewing information sent by the server, subsequent steps are executed according to the viewing information.
It should be noted that, in a specific implementation manner, the film watching information may be the total number of VR clients, that is, how many VR clients play the target movie currently; the playing sequence can also be a sequence obtained by sequencing each VR user terminal according to the time sequence of starting playing the target movie by each VR user terminal playing the target movie at present; the target identification information of each VR client currently playing the target movie may be the IP address of each VR client, the name of each VR client, and the like.
S102, determining a target character virtual avatar to be displayed from a plurality of character virtual avatars preset in a target cinema scene according to the viewing information, wherein the target cinema scene is a cinema scene adopted by a target VR user side for playing a target movie;
after the target VR user side obtains the film watching information, the target character virtual avatar to be displayed is determined from a plurality of character virtual avatars preset in the target cinema scene according to the film watching information, namely, the target character virtual avatars are determined.
It should be noted that a manager of a VR theater may preset a plurality of theater scenes, so that a user may select a corresponding theater scene according to the playing atmosphere of a target movie and his/her preference during watching the target movie, for example, the theater scene may be of a plurality of types such as starry sky, ocean, etc., and the invention does not specifically limit the type of the theater scene; also, a plurality of character avatars are set in advance in each theater scene, that is, the character avatars are generated in advance, for example, a 3D avatar may be generated from a 2D plane photograph by using machine learning and computer vision technology through model software, thereby generating a character avatar, and the generated character avatar may be set in a target theater scene after the character avatar is generated.
Optionally, in a specific implementation manner, when the viewing information is the total number of VR clients, determining a target character avatar to be displayed from a plurality of character avatars preset in the target theater scene according to the viewing information may include:
selecting a total number of character virtual avatars at VR user sides from a plurality of character virtual avatars preset in a target cinema scene according to a preset selection rule;
and determining the selected character virtual avatar as a target character virtual avatar to be displayed.
It should be noted that the preset selection rule may be to randomly select the total number of character avatars at the VR user end from the plurality of character avatars preset in the target cinema scene, or to select the total number of character avatars at the VR user end from the plurality of character avatars preset in the target cinema scene according to a certain rule, and the preset selection rule is not specifically limited in the present invention.
Optionally, in a specific implementation manner, when the viewing information is a play sequence, determining a target character avatar to be displayed from a plurality of character avatars preset in the target theater scene according to the viewing information may include:
determining a target sequence number corresponding to each VR user side in the playing sequence;
selecting a character virtual avatar corresponding to each target sequence number from a plurality of character virtual avatars preset in a target cinema scene according to the corresponding relation between the preset sequence number and the character virtual avatar, and taking the character virtual avatar corresponding to each selected target sequence number as the character virtual avatar corresponding to each VR user side;
and determining the character virtual avatar corresponding to each VR user side as a target character virtual avatar to be displayed.
In this embodiment, a plurality of character avatars preset in the target theater have correspondence with the sequence numbers, and after the sequence numbers are determined, the corresponding character avatars can be determined, so that controllability of the character avatars to be displayed is improved, that is, which character avatars should be displayed can be controlled.
Specifically, after the play sequence is obtained, the target sequence number corresponding to each VR client in the play sequence may be determined first, and then the subsequent steps are executed based on the target sequence number. For example, there are 3 VR clients playing the target movie, which are respectively VR client 1, VR client 2, and VR client 3, and the time sequence when the three VR clients start playing the target movie is VR client 2, VR client 3, and VR client 1, so the sequence numbers of VR client 2, VR client 3, and VR client 1 are respectively 1, 2, and 3.
After the target sequence numbers corresponding to the VR user sides are determined, the character virtual avatar corresponding to the target sequence number is selected in the target cinema scene according to the corresponding relation between the preset sequence numbers and the character virtual avatar, and the target sequence numbers correspond to the VR user sides playing the target movie one by one, so that the selected character virtual avatar is the character virtual avatar corresponding to each VR user side playing the target movie at present, and the character virtual avatar corresponding to each VR user side playing the target movie at present is determined as the target character virtual avatar to be displayed.
Optionally, in a specific implementation manner, when viewing information is target identification information of each VR client, determining a target character avatar to be displayed from a plurality of character avatars preset in a target theater scene according to the viewing information, including:
selecting character virtual avatars corresponding to each target identification information from a plurality of character virtual avatars preset in a target cinema scene according to the corresponding relation between the preset identification information of a VR user side and the character virtual avatars;
and determining the selected character virtual avatar as a target character virtual avatar to be displayed.
In this specific implementation manner, the plurality of character avatars preset in the target theater scene have correspondence with the identification information of the VR user side, so that after the identification information of the VR user side is determined, the corresponding character avatars can be determined, thereby improving controllability of the character avatars to be displayed, that is, which of the character avatars to be displayed can be controlled.
Specifically, when the viewing information is the respective target identification information of each VR user side currently playing the target movie, a character avatar corresponding to the target identification information of each VR user side currently playing the target movie is selected according to the preset corresponding relationship between the identification information of the VR user side and the character avatar, and the selected character avatar is determined as the target character avatar to be displayed. For example, when the target identification information of the VR client is the IP address of the VR client, the IP address of the VR client corresponds to the character avatar one by one, and at this time, the character avatar corresponding to the IP address of each VR client currently playing the target movie is determined as the target character avatar to be displayed.
S103, displaying the target character virtual avatar in the VR scene.
After determining the target character avatar to be displayed in step 102, the target VR client displays the target character avatar to be displayed in the VR scene. Any VR user end playing the target movie is used as the target VR user end, so that any VR user watching the target movie can see the target character virtual avatar in the movie watching process, and therefore movie watching experience of the user is improved.
Compared with the prior art, through the scheme, in the virtual reality movie theater, the user can watch the target character virtual avatar in the process of watching the target movie, and the target character virtual avatar watched by the user is determined based on the film watching information of each VR user side playing the target movie at present, so that the user is not only immersed in the film watching environment of the user, and therefore the film watching experience of the user is improved.
Further, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 1, as shown in fig. 2, the method for supporting simultaneous viewing of multiple VR users provided by the embodiment of the present invention from the perspective of a VR client may further include:
and S104, when the user stops playing the target movie, sending a notification message for stopping playing the target movie to a server, so that the server counts the film watching information of each VR user end currently playing the target movie when receiving the notification message.
Because the viewing information changes when any one of the VR user terminals currently playing the target movie stops playing the target movie, the any VR user terminal currently playing the target movie sends a notification message of stopping playing the target movie to the server, which is beneficial for the server to re-count the viewing information of each VR user terminal currently playing the target movie after receiving the notification message, thereby playing a role in updating the viewing information; and the server sends the updated film watching information to each VR user end playing the target film at present, and after each VR user end playing the target film at present receives the film watching information, the target character virtual avatar to be displayed is determined in the target cinema scene according to the film watching information, so that the film watching experience of the user is further improved.
For example, four VR clients, i.e. VR client 1, VR client 2, VR client 3 and VR client 4, are currently playing the target movie, at this time, the VR client 4 stops playing the target movie, the VR client 4 sends a notification message to the server to stop playing the target movie, and after the server receives the notification message, the film watching information is counted again, that is, only the film watching information of three VR clients, namely VR client 1, VR client 2 and VR client 3, is counted, thereby achieving the purpose of updating the film watching information, and the server will send the updated film watching information to the VR client 1, VR client 2, VR client 3, when the VR client 1, VR client 2 and VR client 3 receive the updated viewing information, and respectively displaying character avatars corresponding to the updated viewing information in the cinema scenes of the character avatars.
It should be noted that, when receiving the notification message of stopping playing the target movie, the server may re-count the notification messages of the VR clients currently playing the target movie, or may directly remove the viewing information corresponding to the VR client that sent the notification message from the counted viewing information, which is both reasonable.
Compared with the prior art, through the scheme, in the virtual reality movie theater, the user can watch the target character virtual avatar in the process of watching the target movie, and the target character virtual avatar watched by the user is determined based on the film watching information of each VR user side playing the target movie at present, so that the user is not only immersed in the film watching environment of the user, and therefore the film watching experience of the user is improved. And when the target VR user end stops playing the target movie, the notification message of stopping playing the target movie is sent to the server, so that the server can update the film watching information in time, the updated film watching information is sent to each VR user end playing the target movie, and the film watching experience of the user can be further improved.
Further, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 1, as shown in fig. 3, a method for supporting simultaneous viewing of multiple VR users provided by the embodiment of the present invention from the perspective of a VR client may further include:
and S105, receiving the current playing position fed back by the server, and playing the target movie according to the current playing position fed back by the server, wherein the current playing position is a current playing position corresponding to a VR user end which starts playing the target movie at the earliest moment, and the earliest moment is the earliest moment in the moments when the target movie starts playing.
In the above embodiment, each VR user currently playing a target movie may watch the movie at the same time, so as to further improve the viewing experience of the users, the users can watch the target movie at the same time and can watch the target movie synchronously, that is, watch the movie at the same playing progress; the server can record the current playing position of the VR user end which starts playing the target movie at the earliest moment in each VR user end playing the target movie at the present time in real time, and feed the current playing position back to the target VR user end, the target VR user end plays the target movie according to the current playing position after receiving the current playing position fed back by the server, and the target VR user end is any VR user end playing the target movie at the present time, so that any VR user end playing the target movie at the present time can play the target movie according to the current playing position, and therefore all users watching the target movie can watch the target movie synchronously, and the movie watching experience of the users is further improved.
Compared with the prior art, according to the scheme, in the virtual reality movie theater, the user can watch the target character virtual avatar in the process of watching the target movie, and the target character virtual avatar watched by the user is determined based on the film watching information of each VR user side playing the target movie at present, so that the user is immersed in the film watching environment of the user, and the film watching experience of the user is improved; moreover, each VR user end playing the target movie at present plays the target movie according to the current playing position fed back by the server, so that the user can also watch the target movie synchronously, and the movie watching experience of the user is further improved.
Further, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 3, as shown in fig. 4, a method for supporting simultaneous viewing of multiple VR users provided by the embodiment of the present invention from the perspective of a VR client may further include:
s106, sending text information and/or voice information to the server, so that when the server receives the text information and/or the voice information, the received text information and/or voice information is sent to each VR user side, and then each VR user side outputs the text information and/or voice information.
After each VR user end playing the target movie synchronously views the movie, in order to enable VR users watching the target movie to communicate in a text or voice mode in the synchronous movie viewing process, the target VR user end can send text information and/or voice information which needs to be communicated by the VR users to the server, so that the server can receive the text information and/or voice information sent by the target VR user end, and the target VR user end is any VR user end currently playing the target movie, so that the server can receive the text information and/or voice information sent by any VR user end currently playing the target movie, and the server is favorable for sending the received text information and/or voice information to each VR user end currently playing the target movie.
Optionally, in a specific implementation manner, on the basis of the embodiment shown in fig. 3, after each user currently playing a target movie synchronously views the movie, the method provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include:
