Hereinafter, a moving image distribution system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1, the moving image distribution system 1 includes a client device 10, a server 20, and a studio unit 30. The client device 10, the server 20, and the studio unit 30 are communicably connected to each other via a network 11. The network 11 includes various networks such as a local area network and the Internet.

In the video distribution system 1, the distributor creates a video using the studio unit 30. The animation includes animation of the character object based on the movement of the actor. The character object is an individual such as a virtual person. The created moving image is distributed from the server 20 to the client device 10 used by the viewing user. The distributor may be an actor, an operator of the studio unit 30, or another person.

An outline of the studio unit 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The studio unit 30 includes a tracking system 31, a controller 40, a main display 41, a sub display 43 (display device), a microphone 44 (see FIG. 3), and a supporter computer 45.

The tracking system 31 acquires information regarding the movement of the actor A. Actor A is, for example, a performing human, an animal, or a moving object. The actor A may be, for example, a robot capable of independent movement. The number of actors in the studio room R may be plural.

The tracking system 31 detects at least one of the orientation and the position of the actor A. In addition, the tracking system 31 can detect the facial expression of the actor A, the position of the virtual camera set in the virtual space, and the like. For example, the tracking system 31 includes an external sensor 32, a mounting sensor 33, and a position identifying device 35. These are methods of tracking the mounting sensor 33 using an external sensor, and detect at least one of the orientation and the position of the mounting sensor 33 mounted on the actor A.

The mounting sensor 33 is mounted on the actor A. A plurality of mounting sensors 33 may be mounted on the actor A. For example, the mounting sensor 33 is mounted on the left wrist, the right wrist, the left instep, the right instep, the waist and the crown of the actor A. The mounting sensor 33 may be mounted on the actor A via a mounting tool. The attachment sensor 33 can be attached to various parts of the actor A. For example, the mounting sensor 33 may be mounted on the finger of the hand and detect the movement of the finger. The number of the attachment sensors 33 attached to the actor A may be 5 or less, or 7 or more. Further, the actor A may wear clothes, equipment, or the like provided with the wearing sensor 33.

The mounting sensor 33, in cooperation with the external sensor 32, outputs information for identifying the orientation and position of itself to the position identifying device 35. One of the external sensors 32 in the outside-in system is, for example, a multi-axis laser emitter. The external sensor 32 emits pulsed laser light for synchronization. The mounting sensor 33 includes a sensor that detects laser light, and detects its own position and orientation while synchronizing with a synchronization pulse. As the mounting sensor 33, for example, Vive Tracker (registered trademark) and Vive Base Station provided by HTC Corporation (registered trademark) can be used.

For example, the mounting sensor 33 may include at least one of a multi-axis acceleration sensor, a gyro, and a geomagnetic sensor. Further, the mounting sensor 33 may use a capacitance type sensor, a strain gauge sensor, or the like. Further, the mounting sensor 33 may be one that cooperates with the external sensor 32 or one that does not cooperate with the external sensor 32. You may use. Further, the mounting sensor 33 may be one that can detect at least one of its orientation and position.

The tracking system 31 also includes a viewpoint position sensor 36 and a camera 37. The viewpoint position sensor 36 is configured so that its position can be changed by the user. The viewpoint position sensor 36 has the same configuration as the mounting sensor 33. The viewpoint position sensor 36 outputs information for specifying its own orientation and position to the position specifying device 35 via wireless communication or a communication cable. The viewpoint position sensor 36 is set as the viewpoint of the virtual camera in the virtual space. The viewpoint position sensor 36 may be supported by, for example, a stand, a gimbal, or a stabilizer. The gimbal may be configured in a shape that can be gripped by an actor or other person. By supporting the viewpoint position sensor 36 with a gimbal or a stabilizer, it becomes possible to suppress camera shake.

The camera 37 is arranged so that the face of the actor A can be imaged. For example, the camera 37 is attached to the head or neck of the actor A, or is arranged in front of the actor A. The camera 37 continuously images the face of the actor A, acquires the image pickup data of the face of the actor A, and transmits the image pickup data to the server 20. The camera 37 may be a 3D camera capable of detecting the depth of the face of a person.

The microphone 44 is arranged at a position where the sound produced by the actor A can be collected. For example, the microphone 44 is attached to the head or neck of the actor A, or is arranged in front of the actor A. The microphone 44 transmits a signal corresponding to the voice to the server 20.

The controller 40 is operated by the actor A. The controller 40 outputs a control signal according to the operation of the actor A to the server 20. Further, the controller 40 may incorporate a sensor for autonomously specifying at least one of the direction and the position. For example, the controller 40 may include at least one of a multi-axis acceleration sensor, a gyro, and a geomagnetic sensor. Further, the controller 40 may be configured to be able to detect at least one of the orientation and the position in cooperation with the external sensor 32, in addition to or instead of the above configuration.

The main display 41 is configured to display the moving image generated by the server 20. The main display 41 may be one unit or a plurality of units as illustrated. The moving image displayed on the main display 41 includes the animation of the character object.

The sub-display 43 is configured to display the information received from the server 20 or the supporter computer 45. The number of sub-displays 43 may be one or plural. The information transmitted from the server 20 or the supporter computer 45 to the main display 41 may include, for example, text information, image information, and various other information. The main display 41 and the sub display 43 are arranged at positions that can be visually recognized by the actor A.

The supporter computer 45 is a computer used by an operator (referred to as “supporter” in this specification) adjacent to the studio room. For example, the room in which the supporter computer 45 is installed and the studio room R are separated from each other by the glass window, so that the supporter using the supporter computer 45 can visually recognize the actor A. In the illustrated embodiment, the supporter B1 and the supporter B2 are present in the room. The supporter computer 45 outputs various information to the sub display 43 according to the operation of the supporter. In the present specification, the supporters B1 and B2 may be collectively referred to as “supporters” when it is not necessary to distinguish the supporters B1 and B2 from each other. The components and functions of the studio unit 30 shown in FIG. 2 are exemplary. The studio unit 30 applicable to the present invention may include various components not shown. For example, the studio unit 30 may include a projector. The projector can project a moving image delivered to the client device 10 or another client device on a screen.

The server 20 will be described with reference to FIG. The server 20 is configured to deliver a moving image including a character object animation based on the action of the actor to the viewing user. The motion of the character object included in the moving image may be controlled in the virtual space. The server 20 includes a computer processor 21, a communication I/F 22, and a storage 23 (storage medium).

The computer processor 21 is an arithmetic unit that loads an operating system and various programs that realize various functions from a storage 23 or another storage into a memory and executes an instruction included in the loaded program. The computer processor 21 is, for example, a CPU, MPU, DSP, GPU, various arithmetic devices other than these, or a combination thereof. The computer processor 21 may realize at least a part of the processing executed by itself by a circuit such as an ASIC, PLD, FPGA, MCU, or the like. Although the computer processor 21 is illustrated as a single component in FIG. 3, the computer processor 21 may be a set of a plurality of physically separate computer processors. In the present specification, the program described as being executed by the computer processor 21 or the instructions included in the program may be executed by a single computer processor, or may be executed by a plurality of computer processors in a distributed manner. Good. Further, the program executed by the computer processor 21 or the instructions included in the program may be executed by a plurality of virtual computer processors.

The computer processor 21 executes a computer-readable instruction included in a distribution program stored in the storage 23 or another storage, thereby the motion data processing unit 21A, the moving image generation unit 21B, the moving image distribution unit 21C, and the user request. It functions as a processing unit 21D, an object processing unit 21E, a user information management unit 21F, and a purchase processing unit 21G. At least a part of the functions realized by the computer processor 21 may be realized by a computer processor other than the computer processor 21 of the moving image distribution system 1. At least a part of the functions implemented by the computer processor 21 may be implemented by a computer processor included in the computer included in the studio unit 30, for example.

The motion data processing unit 21A generates body motion data based on the tracking information detected by each of the mounting sensors 33 mounted on the actor. The body motion data is a time-series digital representation of at least one of the position and orientation of each part of the body of the actor. Body motion data is generated as needed over time. For example, body motion data may be generated at predetermined sampling intervals.

In addition, the motion data processing unit 21A generates face motion data, which is a time-series digital representation of the movement of the face of the actor, based on the shooting data of the camera 37 included in the studio unit 30. Face motion data is generated as needed over time. For example, the face motion data may be generated at predetermined sampling intervals.

The moving image generation unit 21B applies the body motion data and the face motion data generated by the motion data processing unit 21A to predetermined model data included in the model data 23A stored in the storage 23. Accordingly, the moving image generation unit 21B is configured to generate an animation of a character object that moves in the virtual space and whose expression changes.

Furthermore, the moving image generation unit 21B constructs a virtual space using the object data 23B stored in the storage 23, and generates a moving image including an image of this virtual space and the animation of the character object corresponding to the actor A. The moving image generation unit 21B can set the position of the viewpoint position sensor 36 as the position of the virtual camera that is the viewpoint of the moving image. Then, the relative position of the actor A with respect to the position of the virtual camera is set as the position of the character object in the virtual space. Therefore, the actor A changes the position or orientation of the viewpoint position sensor 36 to an arbitrary position or orientation, so that the character object is rich in variations such as a moving image viewed from the left side, a moving image viewed from the right side, and a moving image viewed from above. You can generate videos. Further, the moving image generation unit 21B may change the setting information (focus, angle of view, etc.) of the virtual camera based on the position of the virtual camera.

The moving image distribution unit 21C transmits the list of distributed moving images to the client device 10 and also distributes the moving images generated by the moving image generation unit 21B. The moving image delivery unit 21C may deliver a moving image shot in the studio room R in real time, or may deliver a previously recorded moving image according to a delivery schedule or the like. The moving image distribution unit 21C may be configured to be able to distribute a plurality of moving images in the same time zone. For example, the moving image delivery unit 21C sets the same delivery start time (for example, “20:00”) for the delivery movie of “character X” played by “Actor A1” and the delivery movie of “character Y” played by “Actor A2”. ), or the delivery time period may be overlapped and delivered. The moving image distribution unit 21C transmits a list of distributable moving images to the client device 10 in response to a list display request from the client device 10. Upon receiving the moving image distribution request from the client device 10, the moving image distribution unit 21C transmits the selected moving image to the client device 10 based on the moving image distribution request.

The user request processing unit 21D receives an object display request and a message display request from the client device 10 of the viewing user, and performs processing according to the display request. The viewing user can send a display request for an object to the server 20 by operating his/her own client device 10. The objects include gift objects provided by the viewer to the content. The gift object is an object that is a digital gift from a viewing user to an actor or the like. The gift object may be one that can be requested for acquisition or display without paying the value, or may be one that requires a value for the request for acquisition or display. Alternatively, the price may be paid after the display is made in response to the display request. When a viewing user pays for a request to obtain or display a gift object, a part of the payment is associated with a distributor, and a remaining part is associated with an operator who provides a video distribution platform. The gift object may be one that is continuously displayed in the virtual space, or one that temporarily adds an effect to the virtual space. The gift object display request may include the user ID of the viewing user and the identification information (object ID) of the object of the display request.

On the other hand, when the user request processing unit 21D determines that the object for which the display request is made requires the judgment of the actor or the supporter, the user request processing unit 21D displays the gift object for which the display request is made on the sub-display 43. When the actor or supporter gives a display instruction to the gift object for which the display request has been made, the object for which the display request has been made is displayed.

The user request processing unit 21D also performs processing for displaying a message received from the client device 10 in a moving image. The message includes identification information (user ID or terminal ID) of the viewing user and posting date and time in addition to the content of the message.

Upon receiving the message, the user request processing unit 21D determines whether or not the message can be displayed. When the user request processing unit 21D determines that the received message can be displayed, the user request processing unit 21D causes the moving image generation unit 21B to display the message in a predetermined area of the moving image. Further, the user request processing unit 21D displays the message and the attribute information of the message on the sub display 43.

Further, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object (growth object) other than the character object when the change condition is satisfied. The specific object is an object whose display mode is changed a plurality of times. The specific object may be an object that imitates a living thing such as a plant or an animal, and an object whose display mode is changed along the life cycle. Alternatively, the specific object may be an object imitating something other than a living thing. The specific object imitating a plant changes to a state of “seed”, “bud”, “flower”, “fruiting”, and “withered”, for example, every time a changing condition is satisfied.

The specific object may be given by the operator of the studio at a predetermined timing. Alternatively, the specific object may be given as a gift from the viewing user to the character. Alternatively, the specific object may be given to the distributor by the actor participating in an event executed in the video. In the aspect in which the viewing user gives the distributor a specific object as a gift to the character, the viewing user can be involved in the content of the moving image. Therefore, the viewing user is more motivated to purchase the specific object.

Further, the object processing unit 21E analyzes the content of each message transmitted from the viewing user. The storage 23 stores a dictionary in which a plurality of words and phrases are registered, and the object processing unit 21E extracts the words and phrases included in the message and compares the words and phrases with the dictionary. Attributes are added to the words and phrases stored in the dictionary. For example, attributes such as "positive (first attribute)" are given to positive words such as "like" and "cute". Further, attributes such as "negative (second attribute)" are added to negative words such as "hate" and "pain". The object processing unit 21E determines the attribute to which each of the messages transmitted within the predetermined period belongs by searching the dictionary and identifying the attribute of the phrase that matches the extracted phrase. The method of determining the attribute of the message may be based on a predetermined symbol included in the message, or the like.

When determining the attribute of the message, the object processing unit 21E updates the counter set for each attribute and calculates the number of messages of each attribute. In addition to the number of messages, the number of words and phrases of the first attribute and the number of words and phrases of the second attribute included in the message may be counted. Alternatively, even words or phrases belonging to the same attribute may be weighted according to the phrases. For example, “cute” may be “1 point” and “like” may be “2 points”, and these points may be accumulated. Further, there may be a message that does not belong to any attribute.

The purchase processing unit 21G receives a display request for a purchase medium such as a gift object related to a distribution video from the client device 10 by the operation of the viewing user. After accepting the purchase medium display request, the purchase processing unit 21G transmits the purchase medium information to the client device 10. The purchase medium information may include the type of purchase medium, the image of the purchase medium, the price, and various types of information necessary for purchase. The viewing user confirms the information on the purchase medium displayed on the client device 10 and selects an arbitrary purchase medium. When the purchase user selects a purchase medium, the client device 10 transmits a purchase medium purchase request to the server 20. The purchase processing unit 21G performs payment processing based on the purchase request. When this settlement process is completed, the purchased purchase medium is stored in the server 20 as owned by the viewing user. In addition to the gift object, the purchase medium may be an object other than a gift object related to watching a moving image, a viewing condition such as a moving image quality, a two-dimensional image or a three-dimensional image. Further, the purchase medium may be the moving image itself. Sales of gift objects and other media that can be purchased are distributed to distributors. At this time, a part of the sales may be distributed to the operator of the studio unit 30.

The communication I/F 22 is implemented as hardware, firmware, communication software such as a TCP/IP driver, or a combination thereof. The server 20 can send and receive data to and from other devices via the communication I/F 22.

The storage 23 is a storage device accessed by the computer processor 21. The storage 23 is, for example, a magnetic disk, an optical disk, a semiconductor memory, or various storage devices other than the above capable of storing data. Various programs may be stored in the storage 23. At least a part of the programs and various data that can be stored in the storage 23 may be stored in a storage physically separate from the server 20.

The storage 23 stores model data 23A, object data 23B, content management data 23C, a holding list 23D, a gift list 23E, and a posting message 23F. Further, the storage 23 may store a moving image that is being distributed by the moving image distribution system 1 or a moving image that has already been distributed.

The storage 13 stores an application program for viewing the moving image distributed from the server 20. The input I/F 14 is an arbitrary input interface such as a touch panel that receives an input from a viewing user. Like the communication I/F 22, the communication I/F 15 is various drivers, software, or a combination thereof for communicating with other devices. The display 16 is, for example, an organic EL display integrated with a touch panel, a liquid crystal display, or any other display device capable of displaying an image other than these.

The client device 10 activates a viewing application program (also referred to as a native program) installed in the client device 10 by accepting a viewing user operation via the input I/F 14. The viewing application is only required to be able to be viewed, and may have other functions. The computer processor 12 executes a readable instruction included in the viewing application program to acquire the list of distributed moving images from the server 20. The client device 10 displays the transmitted list on the display. The viewing user selects one from the videos displayed in the list. When the client device 10 receives the selection operation of the viewing user, the client device 10 transmits to the server 20 a moving image distribution request requesting distribution of the selected moving image. Alternatively, the client device 10 accesses the server 20 to activate the web browser stored in the storage 13 and display the web page described in a markup language such as HTML or XML on the display 16. It may be configured. A list of videos is displayed on the web page. Alternatively, the client device 10 may display the moving image list using both the viewing program and the web browser (in-app browser) stored in the storage 13 of the client device 10.

Upon receiving the moving image data from the server 20, the client device 10 displays the moving image on the display 16 based on the received data. The viewing user can input a message regarding the distributed moving image via the input I/F 14 of the client device 10 and post this message to the server 20. The message posted by each viewing user may be displayed superimposed on the moving image. As a result, interaction between the actor and the viewing user and interaction between the viewing user can be achieved.

Next, various data stored in the storage 23 of the server 20 will be described. The model data 23A is model data for generating a character animation. The model data 23A may be three-dimensional model data for generating a three-dimensional animation, or may be two-dimensional model data for generating a two-dimensional model data. The model data 23A includes, for example, rig data indicating the skeleton of the character (sometimes called “skeleton data”) and surface data indicating the shape and texture of the surface of the character. The model data 23A can include a plurality of different model data. The plurality of model data may have different rig data or the same rig data. The plurality of model data may have surface data different from each other or may have the same surface data. In the illustrated embodiment, the model data 23A has at least two types of model data different from each other in order to generate a character object corresponding to an actor. The moving image data distributed to the client device 10 may be two-dimensional moving image data or three-dimensional moving image data. For example, the server 20 may generate three-dimensional moving image data based on the action of the actor, convert the three-dimensional moving image data into two-dimensional moving image data, and deliver the two-dimensional moving image data to the client device 10.

The object data 23B includes asset data for constructing a virtual space that constitutes a moving image. The object data 23B is data for drawing the background of the virtual space forming the moving image, data for drawing various objects displayed in the moving image, and for drawing various objects displayed in the moving image other than these. Contains data. The object data 23B may include object position information indicating the position of the object in the virtual space. The object data 23B may include data (component) for causing the object to have a physical behavior. This data may include setting data as to whether or not to collide with another object, and data such as a coefficient of friction and a coefficient of restitution. For example, when the setting data for causing an object to collide with another object is included, it is determined that a collision has occurred and the objects are collided with each other when the positional relationship with another object to be collided satisfies a predetermined positional relationship. Repulsion or bouncing one or the other. On the other hand, when the setting data that does not cause an object to collide with another object is included, the object does not collide with another object even if the positional relationship with the other object satisfies a predetermined positional relationship.

In addition to the above, the object data 23B may include a gift object displayed in a moving image based on a display request from the viewing user of the client device 10. The gift object may include an effect object, a decoration object, and a normal object. An upper limit may be set on the number of objects that can be purchased or the purchase price of the objects.

The effect object is an object that affects the impression of the entire distribution video viewing screen, and is, for example, an object imitating confetti or an object imitating fireworks. The object imitating confetti may be displayed on the entire viewing screen, and thus the impression of the entire viewing screen before and after the display can be changed. For example, the effect object may be represented by a particle system that represents an event composed of moving particles. In the particle system, the display time may be set for each particle. The effect object may be a static object or a dynamic object. The effect object may be displayed so as to overlap the character object, but is different from the decoration object in that the effect object is not displayed in association with a specific part of the character object.

The decoration object is an object displayed on the display screen in association with a specific part of the character object. The decoration object displayed on the display screen in association with the specific part of the character object is displayed on the display screen so as to be in contact with the specific part of the character object. The decoration object displayed on the display screen in association with the specific part of the character object is displayed on the display screen so as to cover a part or all of the specific part of the character object.

The decoration objects are, for example, accessories (headbands, necklaces, earrings, etc.) attached to character objects, clothes (T-shirts, etc.), costumes, and objects that can be attached to character objects other than these. The object data 23B corresponding to the decoration object may include mounting position information indicating which part of the character object the decoration object is associated with. The mounting position information of a certain decorative object can indicate to which part of the character object the decorative object is mounted. For example, when the decoration object is “nekomimi”, the mounting position information of the decoration object may indicate that the decoration object is mounted on the “head” of the character object. When the decoration object is a “ring”, the attachment position information of the decoration object may indicate that the decoration object is attached to the “finger” of the character object.

The decoration object is attached to the character object by being selected by an actor or a supporter after being added to a list stored in the storage 23 or another storage by the server 20. The viewing user feels a sense of familiarity with the character object by having the character object attach the decorative gift object transmitted by the viewing user. On the other hand, even if the viewing user makes a display request for a decoration object, the decoration object is not attached to the character object unless it is selected as an actor or a supporter. When the actor selects a decoration object, the actor confirms the list displayed on the sub-display 43 and uses the pointing device such as the controller 40 or selects the decoration object by an instruction to the supporter. In addition, the supporter confirms the list displayed on the supporter computer 45 and selects the decoration object using the input interface 50.

The normal object is a gift object other than a decoration object arranged as an object in the virtual space, and is an object imitating a stuffed animal or a bouquet, for example. The normal object may be displayed so as to overlap with the character object, but is different from the decoration object in that it is not displayed in association with a specific part of the character object. Normal objects may differ in that normal objects can change their position by an actor, whereas effect objects cannot change their position by an actor. Also, the display time may differ between the normal object and the effect object.

A display time may be set for each gift object according to its type. In one aspect, the display time of the decoration object may be set longer than the display time of the effect object or the display time of the normal object. For example, the display time of the decoration object may be set to 60 seconds, the display time of the effect object may be set to 5 seconds, and the display time of the normal object may be set to 10 seconds.

Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the object data 23B includes drawing data of the specific object. The specific object may be different from the background. For example, the specific object is associated with a plurality of drawing data 25A, 25B, 25C, 25D,... For drawing the specific object with respect to one piece of identification information (object ID). Information (for example, "1" to "5") indicating a change stage is associated with each of the drawing data. The drawing data 25A of "1" is used for the specific object in the initial stage, and when the change condition is satisfied, the drawing data 25B of "2" is used as the specific object for the next stage. An example of the change pattern of the display mode of the specific object is displayed in a series of orders based on the drawing data associated with the information indicating the change stage. Another example of the change pattern of the display mode of the specific object is that the drawing pattern is branched at one change stage and any drawing data is used at the branch point. For example, the information indicating the change stage of the drawing data is "1", "2A", "2B"... At the change stage of "2", the drawing data of "2A" and the drawing of "2B" are performed. One of the data is selected. When the display mode is branched, the pattern of each display mode may be followed or the same display mode may be returned. The specific object may be drawn on a transparent or opaque background curtain object, or may be drawn in the middle of the background and the character object, and its drawing position is not particularly limited.

As shown in FIG. 6A, the content management data 23C is data in which at least one of the viewing status and the distribution status of the content is stored for each content of the character object. Some content is distributed over a plurality of times, and some content ends after one distribution. For example, the “distributor A” distributes the “content P” whose main character is the “character P” multiple times.

Further, another "distributor B" distributes the "content Q" having the "character Q" as the hero over a plurality of times. The content does not always include animation of different characters. For example, moving images of the same character object may constitute different contents.

The content management data 23C includes at least one of the number of viewing users, the number of posted messages, the viewing time, and the number of distributions. The number of viewing users is the largest number of viewing users among the cumulative number of viewing users from the first distribution to the latest distribution, the number of viewing users in the latest distribution, and the first to latest distribution. The number of viewing users of the distribution times, the number of viewing users of the distribution times with the smallest viewing users among the distribution times of the first distribution times, the average number of viewing users from the first distribution times of the latest distribution times, and the like. The number of message posts is the cumulative number of messages posted from the first delivery to the most recent delivery, the number of message posts in the latest delivery, and the number of message posts in the delivery with the most message posts. , The number of message posts in the delivery times with the fewest message posts, the average number of message posts from the first delivery time to the latest delivery time, and the like. The viewing time is the viewing time that is the cumulative viewing time of each viewing user from the first distribution time to the latest distribution time, the viewing time of the viewing user of the latest distribution time, and the like.

As shown in FIG. 6B, the possession list 23D is a list of objects possessed by the viewing user. The possession list 23D may include identification information (object ID) of the possessed object in association with the user ID. The object owned by the viewing user may be different for each content, and the object owned by the viewing user may be common to different contents, or may include both of them. When the object is different for each content, the holding list 23D of the viewing user stores the identification information of the object for each content. The holding list 23D is continuously stored over a plurality of moving image distributions. Alternatively, the holding list 23D may be newly generated or reset each time one content is distributed.

As shown in FIG. 6C, the gift list 23E is a list of gift objects associated with the content. The gift list 23E is preferably generated or reset each time the moving image is delivered. When the viewing user sends a gift object display request to the moving image, information about the gift object is added to the gift list 23E. The gift list 23E includes content identification information, identification information (user ID) of the viewing user who is the sender of the gift object, gift object identification information (object ID), and gift object type (decoration object, effect object, normal object). , The date and time of posting, and the selection status of the gift object. The selection state of the gift object indicates whether or not the decoration object is selected by the actor or the supporter when the gift object is the decoration object. In the selected state, data indicating “selected” is stored when the decoration object is selected, and data indicating “unselected” is stored when the decoration object is not selected. If the gift object is not a decoration object, "unselected" or data other than "unselected" and "selected" is stored.

As shown in FIG. 6D, the posted message 23F may include information related to the message posted by the viewing user in the moving image. Post message 23F may include, for each content, identification information (user ID) of the viewing user, the content of the message, and the posted date and time when the message was posted. Post message 23F may be newly generated or reset each time one-time content is distributed. Further, posted message 23F may include which attribute the message belongs to, such as “first attribute”. If the attribute does not belong to any attribute, the attribute data is not stored.

As shown in FIG. 6E, the distributor data 23G includes information about the distributor. The distributor data 23G may include distributor identification information (distributor ID), content identification information, and distributor level. In addition, the distributor data 23G may include the number of viewing users of the content and the number of distributions of the content. The level of the distributor is determined by the number of viewing users of the content, the number of distributions of the content, the number of registered favorites of the content, and the like. For example, the level of the distributor may increase as the number of viewing users increases. Alternatively, the level of the distributor may increase as the number of distributions increases.

Next, the screen displayed on the client device 10 will be described.
As shown in FIG. 7, a moving image viewing screen 105 is displayed on the display 16 of the client device 10 based on the moving image data transmitted from the server 20. On the moving image viewing screen 105, a virtual space having the viewpoint position sensor 36 as a camera viewpoint and a character object 110 in which the motion of the actor is reflected are displayed. Further, gift selection units 112 and 113 and a post selection unit 114 are displayed on the moving image viewing screen 105. The gift selection unit 112 is an operation unit for displaying a gift object owned by the viewing user in a moving image. When the gift selecting unit 112 is selected, a list of gift objects held by the viewing user is displayed based on the holding list 23D. When the viewing user selects a gift object from the list, the client device 10 transmits a gift object display request. The gift selection unit 113 is an operation unit for requesting display of a predetermined object such as an object of “heart”. The gift selection unit 113 may make a display request for a gift object that is not included in the possession list 23D. The post selection unit 114 is an operation unit for displaying the message input by the viewing user on the moving image during the period in which the message can be posted. When the post selecting unit 114 is selected, a message input field is displayed, and the user inputs a message in the message input field.

When the server 20 receives the message from the client device 10 within the postable period, the server 20 transmits the moving image data including the message to all the client devices 10 connected to the server 20. The client device 10 having received the moving image data displays the message 130 on the moving image viewing screen 105. In the message 130, the identification information of the posted viewing user and the message content are displayed.

The messages 130 are arranged in the predetermined area of the moving image viewing screen 105 in the order of the posted date and time. When the server 20 receives a new message, the message 130 displayed at the top is moved downward and the new message is displayed at the top. The message reaching the bottom of the message display area moves further downward and is not displayed when a new message is added to the top. Alternatively, the message display area may be capable of displaying only one message.

Further, when the server 20 receives the gift object display request from the client device 10 within a period in which the gift object display request can be accepted, the server 20 displays the gift object at a timing corresponding to the type of the gift object. To do. The gift object is a normal object or an effect object. Further, the gift object is a decoration object (for example, “nekomimi”) displayed in association with a predetermined part (parietal region) of the character object 110.

In addition, a specific object is displayed in the moving image as a gift object or an object other than the gift object. The specific object 120A may be requested to be displayed by the viewing user operating the gift selecting unit 112. Alternatively, the specific object 120A may be displayed in a moving image by an operation of the controller 40 or the like by an actor or an operation of the supporter computer 45 by a supporter.

The specific object 120A may be arranged at a predetermined position. Alternatively, the specific object 120A may be allowed to be placed by an actor or a supporter at any position in the virtual space. The specific object 120A may be placed at any position in the virtual space as well as the landing surface of the character object 110 in the virtual space. Further, the specific object 120A may be set as an object capable of colliding with another object displayed in the virtual space, or may be set as an object which does not collide. Furthermore, the specific object 120A may be set so as to avoid a collision with a predetermined object. For example, when a plurality of specific objects 120A are arranged in the virtual space, it is not necessary to generate an action associated with collision (contact) between the specific objects 120A. When the specific object 120A collides with an object other than another specific object, the first motion is generated, and when the specific object 120A collides with another specific object, a second motion different from the first motion is performed. It may be generated.

As shown in FIG. 8, when the change condition is satisfied, the display mode of the specific object 120A changes to become the specific object 120B. Note that the illustrated content is for distributing a moving image to a client device over a plurality of distribution times, and a moving image displaying a specific object in a display mode of “seed” shown in FIG. 7 and a display of “bud” are displayed. A moving image displaying a specific object in a form is delivered at a different delivery time.

The change condition is stored in the storage 23. The change condition may be set for each specific object 120A or may be set for each drawing data of the same specific object 120A. An example of the changing condition relates to the distribution status of moving images. For example, it means that a predetermined period has passed since the placement of the specific object 120A was started, or that the predetermined number of times of distribution was reached. Alternatively, it means that a predetermined period has passed since the most recent growth, or that a predetermined number of times of distribution has been reached. Specifically, when "24 hours" have passed since the specific object 120A was placed in the virtual space, the specific object 120A can be changed from the "seed" display mode to the "bud" display mode. Alternatively, the specific object 120A can be changed from the display mode of “seed” to the display mode of “bud” in the distribution times after a predetermined number of times from the distribution times in which the specific object 120A is arranged in the virtual space. .. When a moving image is generated according to an instruction from the distributor while the specific object is changeable, the specific object 120A changes to the next specific object 120B.

The changing condition may be other than the distribution status of the moving image. For example, it may be a condition regarding the activity or viewing situation of the viewing user. The condition regarding the viewing condition of the moving image is, for example, that the total number of viewing users who viewed the content from the first time has reached a predetermined number, or that the viewing user who has registered the content in a predetermined category such as “Favorite (Like)”. The number of people has reached a predetermined number, the total viewing time, which is the cumulative viewing time of all viewing users from the first time, has reached a predetermined time, and the message to the content at the latest distribution time from the first time or the predetermined distribution time The total number of messages has reached a predetermined number, the total number of gift objects requested to be displayed has reached a predetermined number, the number of simultaneous viewing users and the number of visits have reached a predetermined value. is there. Specifically, when the total number of viewing users reaches “100” from the first time, the specific object may be changed from the “seed” state to the “bud” state. Further, the changing condition may be a condition other than these conditions.

In this way, as the moving image progresses, the display mode of the specific object changes, so that the viewing user views the moving image with an interest in the change of the specific object. As a result, the number of viewing users can be increased. In particular, when the display mode of the specific object changes over a plurality of distribution times, the number of repeaters increases, so the number of times of viewing, the time of viewing, etc. can be increased.

The change in the display mode of the specific object 120A may be branched depending on the activity of the viewing user or the distribution status of the moving image. The activity of the viewing user is posting of a message by the viewing user, a request for displaying a gift object, and the like. The activity of the viewing user may be, for example, the viewing status of the content (the number of viewing users, viewing time, etc.) unless the change condition overlaps.

With reference to FIG. 9, a case where the display mode is branched according to the posting of a message by the viewing user will be described. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 analyzes the message 130 and determines whether the content of the message belongs to the first attribute or the second attribute. Also, the number of messages 130 belonging to the first attribute and the number of messages 130 belonging to the second attribute are calculated, and they are compared. Then, the display mode of the specific object 120A is changed according to the attribute having the larger number of messages.

FIG. 9A shows the moving image viewing screen 105 when many messages belong to the first attribute “positive”. For example, the specific object 120C is a “cactus” in which a “heart” flower has bloomed.

FIG. 9B shows the moving image viewing screen 105 when many messages belong to the second attribute “negative”. For example, the specific object 120D is a “cactus” with a long “thorn”.

In this way, the activity of the viewing user can be reflected in the display mode of the specific object, so that the viewing user can actively participate in the content. This makes it possible to facilitate communication between the distributor and the viewing users, so that new viewing users or repeaters of the content can be increased. Further, for example, the actor (character) notifies the viewing user in advance about what kind of display mode the specific object will change when there are many messages of each attribute, so that the viewing user expects himself/herself. In order to change the specific object to the display mode, messages are posted more actively. Further, since the distributor can talk about the growth of the specific object, the distributor can be assisted by changing the display mode of the specific object.

Next, with reference to FIG. 10, a state in which the change in the display mode of the specific object progresses in stages will be described. In the illustrated embodiment, the specific object has changed to the display mode of "fruiting". That is, the specific object 120E is in a display mode including the deliverable 120F. The moving image distribution system 1 may treat the deliverable 120F as an electronic data medium that can be used within the same content or on a platform that distributes the content. At this time, the viewing user or the distributor performs acquisition, ownership, use, management, exchange, synthesis, enhancement, sale, disposal, gift, or the like through the operation of the client device 10 or the supporter computer 45. The deliverable 120F may be able to be used as a gift object for the video or other video in which the deliverable 120F was generated. The deliverable 120F is, for example, an item with high value such as rarity, an item with a name of a distributor, or the like.

A case where the deliverable 120F of the specific object 120E is given to the viewing user will be described. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 executes the assignment of the deliverable 120F, for example, at a harvest event in the moving image. The object processing unit 21E identifies the viewing user who is viewing the harvest event. Further, data regarding the deliverable 120F is added to the identified holding list 23D of the viewing user to associate the deliverable 120F with the viewing user. Data (component) for causing physical behavior may be set in the deliverable 120F. Then, at the harvest event, the product 120F may be subjected to a physical behavior so as to be associated with the viewing user or the like. For example, when the product 120F is harvested, the product 120F may be moved vertically downward in the virtual space as if gravity is acting on the product 120F. Alternatively, when the collision determination of the hand of the character object and the deliverable 120F is performed and it is determined that the positional relationship between the character object and the deliverable 120F satisfies a predetermined relationship, the character object has the deliverable 120F. It may be displayed. Further, the character object may arrange the product 120F at a predetermined position.

Furthermore, a new specific object (artifact) such as “seed” may be generated from a specific object in the final stage such as “fruiting”. The "species" new specific object may be usable within the same content or in other content. Alternatively, a new specific object such as “seed” may be configured to be exchanged, sold, or donated on the platform that distributes the content. In this way, by giving the viewing user a new specific object that can be used by the viewing user, it is possible to enhance the merit of giving the viewing user the specific object.

Further, when the change condition is satisfied in the specific object in the “fruit setting” display mode, the specific object may be hidden. Alternatively, it may be hidden through the next display mode such as "withered".

A processing procedure for changing the display mode of the specific object will be described with reference to FIG.
The user request processing unit 21D of the server 20 receives the message transmitted from the client device 10 of the viewing user (step S10). The user request processing unit 21D displays the received message in a moving image.

Further, the object processing unit 21E of the server 20 analyzes the content of the message (step S11). Then, the attribute of the message to be analyzed is determined (step S12). For example, a positive message such as “kawaii” is determined to belong to “positive (first attribute)”. A negative message such as “Kirai” is determined to belong to “negative (second attribute)”.

Further, the object processing unit 21E updates the counter for each attribute (step S13). For example, when the object processing unit 21E determines that the determination target message belongs to the first attribute, the object processing unit 21E increments the counter belonging to the first attribute.

Further, the object processing unit 21E determines whether or not the changing condition of the specific object is satisfied (step S14). The changing condition may be that the value of the counter is equal to or larger than a threshold in addition to the changing condition described above.

When the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is satisfied (step S14: YES), it changes the display mode of the specific object (step S15). Specifically, the object processing unit 21E reads the object data 23B and changes the display mode of the specific object being displayed to the display mode of the next stage. On the other hand, when the object processing unit 21E determines that it is not the growth timing (step S14: NO), it returns to step S10 and repeats the above-described processing.

As described above, according to the above embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) In the moving image distributed to the client device, the display mode of the specific object changes according to the activity of the viewing user. That is, the viewing user can actively participate in the content. As a result, the number of viewing users of the content, the number of viewing times, or the viewing time can be increased.

(2) The display mode of the specific object changes according to the message posted to the moving image. As a result, the viewing user can be motivated to post the message, so that the viewing user actively participates in the content.

(3) When the specific object reaches the display mode of “fruiting”, the product 120F displayed on the specific object is associated with the viewing user. As a result, the viewing user can be motivated to perform an activity that changes the display mode of the specific object to "fruiting".

(4) When the specific object is a gift object for which the viewing user makes a display request, the viewing user can be actively involved in the content of the moving image. Therefore, it is possible to actively provide the gift object from the viewing user.

(Second embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the moving image distribution system will be described. In the second embodiment, the processing for branching the display mode of the specific object is different from that in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In the present embodiment, the display mode of the specific object is branched according to the gift object for which the viewing user has requested the display.
As shown in FIG. 12, on the moving image viewing screen 105, the gift object requested by the viewing user to be displayed is displayed together with the specific object 130B. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 changes the display mode of the specific object according to the type or attribute of the most gift object among all the gift objects requested to be displayed or the gift objects displayed in the moving image. .. For example, the object processing unit 21E compares the number of “star” gift objects G1 and the number of “heart” gift objects G2, which are gift objects for which display requests have been made within a predetermined period. The predetermined period may be a period from the start of distribution of the content, a predetermined distribution time, or a predetermined time period set in the predetermined distribution time.

As shown in FIG. 13A, when there are more display requests for the "heart" gift object than display requests for other gift objects, the specific object 130C has a flowery display mode.

As shown in FIG. 13B, when there are more display requests for the "star" gift object than for other gift objects, the specific object 130D has a flower different from the flower that blooms when there are many "hearts". The display is in bloom.

A process of branching the display mode of the specific object according to the type of the gift object will be described with reference to FIG. When the client device 10 receives a display request input operation by the viewing user, the client device 10 transmits the display request to the server 20. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 updates the counter for each gift object when the counter is set for the gift object for which the display request is made (step S30).

The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 determines whether or not the changing condition of the specific object is satisfied (step S31). The changing condition may be that the value of the counter is equal to or larger than a threshold in addition to the changing condition described above. When the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is not satisfied (step S31: NO), the process returns to step S30.

On the other hand, when the object processing unit 21E determines that the change condition is satisfied (step S31: YES), the object processing unit 21E determines the gift object for which the display request is most frequently made, based on the value of the counter (step S32). For example, the object processing unit 21E determines that the most gift object of “heart” is the most gift object among the gift objects. Then, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object according to the gift object for which the display request has been made most (step S33). For example, when the largest number of display requests are made for the “heart” gift object, the specific object is in a flowery display mode.

As described above, according to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to at least some of the effects described in the above embodiments.
(5) Since the display mode of the specific object changes in accordance with the gift object having the largest number of display requests, the viewing user can be motivated to change the display mode of the specific object. This allows the viewing user to actively participate in the content.

(Third Embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the moving image distribution system will be described. In the third embodiment, the process of changing the display mode of the specific object is different from that of the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the same parts as those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

In the present embodiment, the display mode of the specific object is changed according to the distribution status of the moving image of the distributor.
As shown in FIG. 15A, the specific object 140 is an object for supporting the distributor, and is an object for providing the distributor with advice regarding moving image distribution. In the illustrated embodiment, the specific object 140 is a specific object imitating a tree 140B having a display medium 140A (a scroll, a board) that displays advice to the distributor. On the display medium 140A, conversation themes recommended by the management side (for example, "let's introduce yourself", "let's ask everyone" etc.), the content of the acting, etc. are described.

The object processing unit 21E refers to the distributor data 23G and obtains advice from the storage 23 according to the distributor level and the distribution status of moving images. Then, the advice is displayed on the display medium 140A. The specific object 150 in the illustrated embodiment is an object on which advice when the level is relatively low is posted.

When using the advice written on the display medium 140A, the actor proceeds with the distribution of the moving image in accordance with the advice. For example, introduce yourself or ask a question to the viewing user. The object processing unit 21E may display the display medium 140A for a predetermined time and then delete the display medium 140A.

As shown in FIG. 15B, the object processing unit 21E changes the display mode of the specific object 150 when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the advice written on the display medium 140A is changed to the content according to the level of the distributor.

With reference to FIG. 16, a processing procedure for changing the display mode of the specific object according to the level of the distributor will be described. The object processing unit 21E of the server 20 acquires the level of the distributor (step S40). The timing of acquiring the level may be when the distribution of the moving image is started or when the distribution of the moving image is ended. The object processing unit 21E determines, based on the acquired level, whether or not the change condition regarding the level is satisfied (step S41). The changing condition in this case is that the level has increased by one step, that the level has reached a predetermined level, that a predetermined time or a predetermined number of times of distribution has elapsed since the level changed. Alternatively, the changing condition may be a condition relating to the number of viewing users, a condition relating to an action or an utterance of an actor, or any condition described in each of the above embodiments. ..

When the object processing unit 21E determines that the acquired level does not satisfy the changing condition (step S41: NO), the process returns to step S40. When the object processing unit 21E determines that the acquired level satisfies the change condition (step S41: YES), the support information for supporting the distributor is displayed (step S42). For example, the display medium 140A of the specific object 150 is changed. When the support information is displayed, the process returns to step S40 and the above process is repeated.

As described above, according to this embodiment, the following effects can be obtained in addition to at least some of the effects described in the above embodiments.
(7) The display medium 140A in which advice to the distributor is described is displayed as the specific object. With this, even a distributor who has just started distributing a moving image can perform an action or the like in accordance with the advice, so that it is possible to reduce the barrier to the continuous distribution of the moving image and the distribution. Further, even for a distributor having a large number of distributions of moving images, the distribution contents are likely to overlap with each other as the distributions are repeated. Therefore, by incorporating the advice into the moving images, it is possible to distribute a moving image with new contents.

Each of the above embodiments can be modified and implemented as follows. The present embodiment and the following modified examples can be implemented in combination with each other within a technically consistent range.
As shown in FIG. 17, the specific object 150 has, as the deliverable 150A, a medium that is given to the viewing user or the distributor and is unknown until the harvest event occurs (eg, a ball). Good. When the harvest event occurs, the object processing unit 21E displays the medium given to the viewing user or the distributor. For example, an effect such that an object (item, gift object, ticket, etc.) appears from the product 150A of "Kusutama" is performed. Then, the object processing unit 21E associates the object obtained from the deliverable 150A with the viewing user who viewed the harvest event or the moving image including the harvest event, or the distributor. According to this, at least a part of the viewing users will view until the contents of the deliverable 150A are clarified, so that the number of viewing times, the viewing time, etc. can be increased.

-As shown in Drawing 18, a plurality of specific objects may be combined. FIG. 18A shows the specific object 160A displayed in the content distributed by the "distributor A". FIG. 18B shows the specific object 160B displayed in the content distributed by the "distributor B". When the server 20 receives the combination instruction of the specific object from the terminal used by the distributor and the terminal used by the distributor, the server 20 sets the specific object 160A of the "distributor A" and the specific object 160B of the "distributor B". The specific object 160C (FIG. 18C) is generated by synthesizing and displayed on the moving image viewing screen 105. If there are a plurality of specific objects in the content, even if the specific objects of different distributors are not included, the distributor may combine these specific objects. According to this aspect, not only the change of the display mode of the specific object but also the viewing user can be made to have an expectation and an interest in the change of the display mode by combining.

In each of the above-described embodiments, the growth process of the specific object is branched according to the activity of the viewing user and the video distribution status of the distributor. Instead of this, the growth process of the specific object may be a plurality of stages without branching. Even in this aspect, if the change condition is related to the activity of the user, the display aspect of the specific object changes according to the activity of the viewing user, so that the viewing user can actively participate in the content. ..

When the changing condition of the specific object is satisfied, the server 20 may change the display mode of the specific object according to the date and time information at that time. For example, if the change condition is satisfied in “April”, the display mode of the specific object includes a “cherry blossom” flower, while the change condition is satisfied in the specific object under the same condition. If it is “August”, the flower of “Sunflower” may be included. The date and time information is not limited to “year/month/day”, but may be “time”.

When the changing condition of the specific object is satisfied, the server 20 may acquire the information about the external environment at that time and change the display mode of the specific object based on the acquired information about the external environment. .. The information about the external environment includes weather, temperature, position information where the client device 10 is located, and the like. The server 20 may acquire the information on the external environment from the client device 10 or an external server. For example, the server 20 acquires the position information from the client device 10 when the change condition is satisfied, and acquires the weather corresponding to the position information from the external server. Then, when the weather corresponding to the position information is “rain”, the server 20 displays a specific object including an umbrella or dynamically displays particles of raindrops around the specific object. May be.

-In the said embodiment, the display mode of a specific object is changed according to the activity of an actor. Instead of or in addition to this, the display mode may be changed according to the distribution status of the moving image. For example, if the number of times of distribution reaches “10 times”, the number of flowers of the specific object is “10”, and if the number of times of distribution reaches “20 times”, the number of flowers of the specific object is “20”. Good.

-One specific object may be displayed in the moving image, or a plurality of specific objects may be displayed.
In the third embodiment, when the change condition is satisfied, the support information according to the level of the distributor is displayed. As the support information, any one of the plurality of support information may be selected according to the state of the actor when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the server 20 stores a plurality of pieces of support information in the storage 23, and the object processing unit 21E acquires information regarding the state of the actor when the change condition is satisfied. For example, the object processing unit 21E acquires information regarding the motion of the actor based on various parameters acquired from the mounting sensor 33, such as the moving distance of the actor from the initial position and the number of times the arm is shaken. Then, the object processing unit 21E displays support information such as "Let's dance" when it is determined that the movement of the actor is small based on various parameters, and when it is determined that the movement of the actor is sufficiently large. Display different support information or no support information. Alternatively, the object processing unit 21E calculates the utterance amount or the non-utterance (silence) time based on the voice of the actor input from the microphone 44. The object processing unit 21E displays support information such as "let's sing" when it is determined that the utterance volume of the actor is small, and another support information is displayed when it is determined that the utterance volume of the actor is sufficiently large. Display or do not display support information.

The specific object (growth object) may be an object other than those in the above embodiments. For example, an object (bonsai tree) that grows when the number of continuous viewing users who continuously watch the videos distributed at each distribution time reaches a predetermined number (“100 people”, “200 people”) step by step. And so on.

In one embodiment, a large number of infrared LEDs are mounted on each of the actor and the plurality of attachment sensors 33 attached to the actor, and the light from the infrared LEDs is provided on the floor or wall of the studio room R. The position and orientation of each of the mounting sensors 33 may be detected by detecting with an infrared camera. A visible light LED may be used in place of the infrared LED, and light from the visible light LED may be detected by a visible light camera to detect each position and orientation of the mounting sensor 33. As described above, each of the plurality of mounting sensors 33 mounted on the actor is provided with a light emitting portion (for example, an infrared LED or a visible light LED), and light from the light emitting portion is provided in the studio room (a light receiving portion ( For example, the position and orientation of each of the mounting sensors 33 may be detected by detecting with an infrared camera or a visible light camera. In one embodiment, a plurality of reflective markers can be used instead of the mounting sensor 33. The reflective marker is attached to each of the actors or provided as a part of clothes (suit) worn by the actor. By providing the reflective marker on the actor in this way, the actor can be imaged to generate shooting data, and the shooting data can be image-processed to detect the position and orientation of the reflection marker. Further, the tracking system 31 may be one that can detect the movement of the actor only by the external sensor 32 without using the mounting sensor 33.
