The following describes the embodiment with reference to the drawings.

[First embodiment]

[Overview of System 1]
Fig. 1 is a diagram showing an overview of a system 1 according to this embodiment. For example, as shown in Fig. 1, the system 1 mainly includes user terminals 20A, 20B, and 20C (hereinafter, these may be collectively referred to as "user terminals 20") and a server 10.

Hereinafter, the person who operates the server 10 will be referred to as "Administrator 3." In addition, the people who operate the user terminals 20A, 20B, and 20C will be referred to as "Users 4A, 4B, and 4C" (hereinafter, these may be collectively referred to as "User 4").

The administrator 3 is a person who operates the information processing service provided by the system 1. On the other hand, the user 4 is a person who uses the information processing service provided by the system 1. In addition, the administrator 3 and the user 4 differ in which information processing device they operate: the server 10, which is an example of a management device, or the user terminal 20.

Note that the example shown in FIG. 1 has three user terminals 20 and one server 10, but the number of servers 10, the number of user terminals 20, the number of administrators 3, and the number of users 4 are not important.

The server 10 and the user terminal 20 are connected to each other so that they can communicate with each other via a communication network 2. For example, the communication network 2 is the Internet, a mobile communication system (for example, a public line such as 4G (4th Generation, 4th generation mobile communication standard) or 5G (5th Generation, 5th generation mobile communication standard)), a wireless network such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark), or a combination of these.

System 1 is a system that allows a user 4, who operates multiple user terminals 20A to 20C, to experience a common virtual space provided by a server 10. More specifically, the user terminal 20 places a user character (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as an "avatar") associated with the user in the virtual space, and causes the user terminal 20 to display an image of the virtual space viewed from a preset viewpoint.

The user terminal 20 also captures an image of an avatar in the virtual space from a preset viewpoint to generate a set viewpoint video. The user terminal 20 also edits the generated set viewpoint video to generate a viewing video, and uploads the generated viewing video to the server 10. The user terminal 20 also downloads the viewing video from the server 10 and allows the user to view it.

Hereinafter, the user terminal 20 for operating the avatar may be referred to as the "play terminal", the user terminal 20 for editing the set viewpoint video may be referred to as the "editing terminal", and the user terminal 20 for viewing the viewing video may be referred to as the "viewing terminal".

The play terminal, editing terminal, and viewing terminal may be the same terminal or different terminals. For example, a suitable play terminal is an HMD (Head Mounted Display) set, a suitable editing terminal is a laptop computer or desktop computer, and a suitable viewing terminal is a tablet terminal or smartphone. However, the specific form of each terminal is not limited to the above examples.

[Configuration of Server 10]
2 is a diagram showing the hardware configuration of the server 10. The server 10 is, for example, a workstation or a general-purpose computer such as a personal computer.

The server 10 mainly comprises a processor 11, a memory 12, a storage 13, an input/output interface 14, and a communication interface 15. In addition, each component of the server 10 is connected to a communication bus 19.

The processor 11 performs processing and control by executing a series of instructions contained in the server program 13P stored in the memory 12 or storage 13.

The processor 11 is, for example, a calculation device and a control device such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit), a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), an MPU (Micro Processor Unit), an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), or a combination of these.

The memory 12 is a main storage device that stores the server program 13P and data, etc. For example, the server program 13P is loaded from the storage 13. The data includes data input to the server 10 and data generated by the processor 11. For example, the memory 12 is a RAM (Random Access Memory) or other volatile memory.

The storage 13 is an auxiliary storage device that stores the server program 13P and data, etc. The storage 13 is, for example, a ROM (Read-Only Memory), a hard disk drive, a flash memory, or other non-volatile storage device. The storage 13 may also be a removable storage device such as a memory card. As another example, the storage 13 may be an external storage device. With this configuration, for example, in a situation where multiple user terminals 20 are used, such as an amusement facility, it becomes possible to collectively update the server program 13P or data.

The input/output interface 14 is an interface that connects external devices such as a monitor, an input device (e.g., a keyboard or a pointing device), an external storage device, a speaker, a camera, a microphone, and a sensor to the server 10.

The processor 11 also communicates with external devices through the input/output interface 14. The input/output interface 14 is, for example, a Universal Serial Bus (USB), a Digital Visual Interface (DVI), a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI (registered trademark)), wireless, and other terminals.

The communication interface 15 communicates with other devices (e.g., user terminal 20, etc.) connected to the communication network 2. For example, the communication interface 15 is a wired communication interface such as a LAN (Local Area Network), or a wireless communication interface such as Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity), Bluetooth (registered trademark), or NFC (Near Field Communication).

[Configuration of user terminal 20]
FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the hardware configuration of an HMD set, which is an example of the user terminal 20. As shown in FIG.

Figure 4 is a hardware configuration diagram of a tablet terminal, which is another example of a user terminal 20.

Specifically, the user terminal 20 may be an HMD set as shown in FIG. 3, a tablet terminal as shown in FIG. 4, a smartphone, a feature phone, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, or the like.

As shown in FIG. 3, the user terminal 20, which is an HMD set, includes a computer 26 having a processor 21, a memory 22, a storage 23, an input/output interface 24, and a communication interface 25. In addition, each component of the computer 26 is connected to a communication bus 29.

The basic configuration of the processor 21, memory 22, storage 23, input/output interface 24, communication interface 25, and communication bus 29 is the same as, for example, the processor 11, memory 12, storage 13, input/output interface 14, communication interface 15, and communication bus 19. In addition, the storage 23 holds the terminal program 23P.

The user terminal 20, which is an HMD set, is configured to connect the HMD 30, the motion sensor 41, and the operation device 42 to the computer 26. For example, the HMD 30, the motion sensor 41, and the operation device 42 are connected to the processor 21 via the input/output interface 24.

The HMD 30 is worn on the user's head and provides the user with a virtual space. More specifically, the HMD 30 may include a so-called head-mounted display equipped with a monitor, or a smartphone or other terminal equipped with a monitor.

The HMD 30 mainly comprises a monitor 31 (display device), a gaze sensor 32, cameras 33 and 34, a microphone 35, and a speaker 36.

For example, the monitor 31 is a non-transmissive display device. Specifically, the monitor 31 is disposed so as to be positioned in front of both eyes of the user. The non-transmissive monitor 31 is, for example, a liquid crystal monitor, an organic EL (Electro Luminescence) monitor, etc.

As another example, the monitor 31 is a transmissive display device. A transmissive type is an open type like glasses, rather than a closed type that covers the user's eyes.

The monitor 31 may include a configuration that simultaneously displays a part of an image that constitutes a virtual space and the real space. As an example, the see-through monitor 31 may display an image of the real space captured by a camera mounted on the HMD 30.

The see-through monitor 31 may be configured to have an adjustable transmittance. The see-through monitor 31 may also have a high transmittance in part of its display area, allowing the real space to be viewed directly.

The monitor 31 may also have the following configuration to allow the user to view a three-dimensional image. For example, the monitor 31 may include a sub-monitor that displays an image for the right eye and a sub-monitor that displays an image for the left eye.

As another example, the monitor 31 may be configured to display an image for the right eye and an image for the left eye as a single unit. In this configuration, the monitor 31 has a high-speed shutter that operates to alternately display an image for the right eye and an image for the left eye so that the image is only visible to one eye.

The gaze sensor 32 detects the direction in which the right eye and left eye of the user 4 are looking. In other words, the gaze sensor 32 detects the user's line of sight.

The gaze sensor 32 is realized, for example, by a sensor with an eye tracking function. The gaze sensor 32 preferably includes a sensor for the right eye and a sensor for the left eye. The gaze sensor 32 detects the rotation angle of each eyeball by irradiating the right and left eyes of the user with infrared light and receiving reflected light from the cornea and iris in response to the irradiated light. The gaze sensor 32 then identifies the user's line of sight based on each detected rotation angle.

Camera 33 captures an image of the upper part of the face of a user wearing HMD 30 (more specifically, the user's eyes, eyebrows, etc.).

The camera 34 captures an image of the lower part of the face of the user wearing the HMD 30 (more specifically, the nose or mouth of the user 4, etc.).

For example, camera 33 is attached to the side of the housing of HMD 30 that faces the user, and camera 34 is attached to the side opposite the side facing the user. Note that HMD 30 may be provided with one camera that captures an image of the user's entire face instead of the two cameras 33 and 34.

The microphone 35 converts the user's speech into an audio signal (electrical signal) and outputs it to the computer 26. The speaker 36 converts the audio signal output from the computer 26 into sound and outputs it to the user. Note that the HMD 30 may have earphones instead of the speaker 36.

The motion sensor 41 has a position tracking function to detect the motion of the HMD 30. As an example, the motion sensor 41 may read multiple infrared rays emitted by the HMD 30 to detect the position and inclination of the HMD 30 in real space.

As another example, the motion sensor 41 may be a camera. Specifically, the motion sensor 41 analyzes an image output from the camera to detect the position and inclination of the HMD 30. The motion sensor 41 may be an angular velocity sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, or an acceleration sensor.

The operation device 42 is connected to the computer 26 via a wired or wireless connection. The operation device 42 then accepts operations on the computer 26 by the user 4.

For example, the operation device 42 may be a so-called controller that is held and operated by the user 4. The operation device 42 may be configured to be attachable to the user's body or a part of the user's clothing, and may detect the movement of the user 4 by a motion sensor.

However, the operation device 42 is not limited to these and may be other input devices such as a keyboard, a pointing device, or a touch panel.

As shown in FIG. 4, the user terminal 20, which is a tablet terminal, mainly comprises a processor 21, a memory 22, a storage 23, a communication interface 25, a monitor 31, cameras 33 and 34, a microphone 35, a speaker 36, a motion sensor 41, and an operating device 42. Each component of the tablet terminal is connected to a communication bus 29.

The basic configuration of the processor 21, memory 22, storage 23, communication interface 25, monitor 31, cameras 33, 34, microphone 35, speaker 36, motion sensor 41, and operation device 42 is the same as that of the HMD set (i.e., the configuration described in Figure 3), so below we will omit redundant explanations and explain the configuration specific to the tablet terminal.

The monitor 31 is mounted on the surface of a flat housing.

The camera 33 is a so-called in-camera that is attached to the surface of the flat housing and captures an image of the face of the user viewing the monitor 31.

The camera 34 is attached to the back side of the flat housing (the side opposite the monitor 31) and is a so-called out-camera that captures images of the surroundings.

The motion sensor 41 detects the movement of the housing (e.g., rotation around three mutually orthogonal axes).

An example of an operation device 42 suitable for a tablet terminal is a touch panel that is superimposed on the monitor 31 and accepts various touch operations by the user (e.g., tapping, sliding, flicking, pinching in, pinching out, etc.).

[Outline of Virtual Space 90]
FIG. 5 is a diagram conceptually showing one aspect of the virtual space 90. As shown in FIG.

Figure 6 shows a YZ cross section of the viewing area 94 in virtual space 90 as viewed from the X direction.

Figure 7 shows an XZ cross section of the field of view 94 in virtual space 90 as viewed from the Y direction.

As shown in FIG. 5, the virtual space 90 is a spherical structure that covers the entire 360-degree area around the center C. To simplify the explanation below, the following example focuses on the upper half of the celestial sphere of the virtual space 90.

Each mesh is set in the virtual space 90. For example, the position of each mesh is predefined as a coordinate value in the XYZ coordinate system, which is a global coordinate system defined in the virtual space 90.

Each partial image constituting a panoramic image 91 (in the form of a still image, video, etc.) that can be deployed in a virtual space 90 is associated with a corresponding mesh in the virtual space 90.

For example, in the virtual space 90, an XYZ coordinate system is defined with the center C as the origin. The XYZ coordinate system is, for example, parallel to the real coordinate system. Hereinafter, the horizontal direction, vertical direction (up-down direction), and front-to-back direction in the XYZ coordinate system are referred to as the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis. Therefore, in the XYZ coordinate system, the X-axis (horizontal direction) is parallel to the x-axis of the real coordinate system. Also, in the XYZ coordinate system, the Y-axis (vertical direction) is parallel to the y-axis of the real coordinate system. Furthermore, in the XYZ coordinate system, the Z-axis (front-to-back direction) is parallel to the z-axis of the real coordinate system.

A virtual camera 92 associated with the user terminal 20 is placed in the virtual space 90. The position of the virtual camera 92 in the virtual space 90 corresponds to the user's viewpoint in the virtual space 90.

The orientation of the virtual camera 92 corresponds to the user's line of sight in the virtual space 90 (indicated by the reference line of sight 93 in FIG. 5). The processor 21 then determines the field of view 94 in the virtual space 90 (i.e., the angle of view of the virtual camera 92) based on the position and orientation of the virtual camera 92.

As shown in FIG. 6, the field of view 94 includes a portion of the area 95 in the YZ cross section. Furthermore, the area 95 is a range of polar angle α centered on the reference line of sight 93 in a vertical cross section (i.e., the YZ cross section) that includes the reference line of sight 93 in the virtual space 90.

As shown in FIG. 7, the field of view 94 includes a portion of the area 96 in the XZ cross section. Furthermore, the area 96 is a range of azimuth angle β centered on the reference line of sight 93 in a horizontal cross section (i.e., the XZ cross section) that includes the reference line of sight 93 within the virtual space 90.

The processor 21 generates (extracts) a partial image included in the field of view 94 of the panoramic image 91 deployed in the virtual space 90 as a virtual space image 97 captured by the virtual camera 92. The processor 21 then displays the generated virtual space image 97 on the monitor 31.

That is, the field of view 94 corresponds to the field of view of the user in the virtual space 90. Furthermore, in the virtual space 90, the field of view 94 moves in accordance with changes in the position and orientation of the virtual camera 92, and the virtual space image 97 displayed on the monitor 31 is updated. That is, the field of view of the user 4 moves.

For example, the processor 21 moves the virtual camera 92 in the virtual space 90 in conjunction with the operation of the user 4 received by the operation device 42. The processor 21 also changes the orientation of the virtual camera 92 (i.e., the reference line of sight 93) in conjunction with the movement of the user terminal 20 detected by the motion sensor 41 (e.g., rotation around three mutually orthogonal axes). Furthermore, the processor 21 causes the monitor 31 to display a virtual space image 97 captured by the virtual camera 92 after the position and orientation have been changed.

As described above, when conditions such as the camera coordinate system are determined in the world coordinate system, the field of view 94 is determined. An image displaying the field of view 94 thus determined is output to the user 4.

The image of the virtual space to be output to user 4 may be determined by processing other than that described above.

[Example of generation of virtual space 90]
8 is a diagram showing an example of generating a virtual space. Hereinafter, an example will be described in which a specific, actually existing town is reproduced and displayed in three dimensions using computer graphics.

Figure 8 (A) is a diagram explaining an example of setting the viewpoint in a format similar to that of Figures 5 to 7. For example, the user terminal 20 sets the user's avatar position 50 as the origin and displays a three-dimensional computer graphics reproduction of the range of the field of view 94.

Figure 8 (B) is an example of a virtual space display. For example, the field of view 94 set as in Figure 8 (A) displays a virtual space image 97 corresponding to the field of view 94 to the user 4.

Furthermore, suppose that six other avatars, 52A, 51B, 52B, 51C, 52C, and 52D, are present near the person's avatar position 50. Of these other avatars 52A, 51B, 52B, 51C, 52C, and 52D, the positions of three other avatars, 52A, 51B, and 52B, are within the field of view 94. On the other hand, of these other avatars 52A, 51B, 52B, 51C, 52C, and 52D, the positions of three other avatars, 51C, 52C, and 52D, are outside the field of view 94.

As shown in FIG. 8(B), the three avatars of other people avatars 52A, 51B, and 52B that are within the field of view 94 are displayed together with the city in a virtual space image 97. When user 4 of other people avatars 52A, 51B, and 52B operates them, the actions based on the operation are reflected and displayed in the virtual space image 97.

Figure 9 is a diagram showing an example of behavior in a virtual space. For example, user 4 can operate his/her avatar 54 to shop at a store in the virtual space. Specifically, in the virtual space, his/her avatar 54 can move around the store and look at products in the store, as shown in Figure 9.

In addition, by operating the personal avatar 54 to talk to the store clerk avatar 55, the user 4 can communicate through the personal avatar 54. Specifically, by communicating, the user 4 can receive an explanation of the product, complete the purchase procedure, negotiate the price, and the like.

Note that actions performed using an avatar in a virtual space are not limited to the above examples. For example, actions may include moving to a location other than a store, participating in an event, changing the appearance of the avatar (e.g., clothing, body shape, color, accessories, etc.), the sound the avatar makes (e.g., voice, etc.), or motions that are automatically performed under certain conditions, etc.

In this way, the action may include movement of the avatar or communication in the virtual space in response to an input operation by the user 4.

[Example of generation of multiple virtual spaces 90]
10 is a diagram showing an example of generating a first virtual space and a second virtual space. An example of generating two virtual spaces, a first virtual space 101 and a second virtual space 102, will be described below.

Each avatar belongs to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. Hereinafter, an avatar that belongs to the first virtual space 101 will be referred to as a "first avatar." On the other hand, an avatar that belongs to the second virtual space 102 will be referred to as a "second avatar."

Furthermore, an action taken by the first avatar is referred to as the "first action." Similarly, an action taken by the second avatar is referred to as the "second action."

In the example shown in FIG. 10, the first avatar is the "tenth avatar 110" that acts based on the input operation of user 4A, and the "eleventh avatar 111" that acts based on the input operation of user 4B. On the other hand, in the example shown in FIG. 10, the second avatar is the "twentieth avatar 120" that acts based on the input operation of user 4C.

The first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are virtual spaces in which at least one of the maps and objects is partly common. Specifically, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are virtual spaces in which the same real city is reproduced in three dimensions using computer graphics. Therefore, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 reproduce a specific city or a specific area (hereinafter referred to as a "specific location"), and the virtual spaces are in a synchronous relationship with each other. For example, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are both virtual spaces that reproduce the city of "Shibuya."

Specifically, user 4 logs in to the virtual "Shibuya" via user terminal 20. When logging in, user 4 does not select whether he/she belongs to the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. Then, when the login operation is performed, user terminal 20 transmits login information to server 10.

Based on the login information received from the user terminal 20 and a pre-configured user database, the server 10 determines whether the avatar of user 4 should belong to "Shibuya" in the first virtual space 101 or "Shibuya" in the second virtual space 102.

The server 10 may also assign the avatar of a user who logs in for the first time (hereinafter referred to as a "new user") to "Shibuya" in the third virtual space and register the avatar in the user database. The server 10 then returns the determined result to the user terminal 20.

When such a result is received, the user terminal 20 displays on the monitor the map that has been assigned based on the reply from the server 10.

Note that a new user is not limited to a user who logs in for the first time. For example, a new user may include a user who has played the game for the first time and has not yet passed a certain period of time, a user who has not participated in a specific event, or a user who is participating in an event for the first time during a specific period of time.

The first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 reproduce the same specific area, and the events that occur are synchronized, so that, for example, if an event occurs in one of the virtual spaces to remove an object, the removed object will not be reproduced in either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. In addition, if an event occurs in one of the virtual spaces, the same event will proceed simultaneously, and so on. Because they are synchronized, the events will start at the same start time and end at the same end time. In this way, when an event or other event occurs in the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102, the events will be synchronized and proceed on the same schedule.

Note that events that are synchronized are not limited to events. For example, it may be the flow of time or matching exhibits in a store. When common events are synchronized in this way, the provider only needs to manage one event, reducing the management burden.

The specific location may be something other than a city. The specific location may not be an actual area, but may be a fictional city. In other words, the specific location reproduced in the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 may be an area for which map and object data are available.

To generate the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102, the server 10 inputs map and object data in advance.

Figure 11 shows examples of maps and objects. For example, with map and object data, the server 10 can generate a virtual space that recreates a specific location.

A map is, for example, data that specifies the spaces that an avatar can pass through in a virtual space. Specifically, in a virtual space that recreates a city, roads 130 are the spaces that an avatar can pass through. In other words, the map shows data that indicates the spaces that an avatar can pass through with roads 130, and that sets the space other than roads 130 so that the avatar cannot pass through.

Note that the map may include data other than road 130. The map is also data showing the topography, etc. at a specific location.

An object is, for example, a structure 131 such as a road, building, famous place, installation, or store that is reproduced in a town. Therefore, the data of the object is design data that indicates the shape and dimensions of the structure. In other words, when the server 10 has the data of the object, it can reproduce a three-dimensional model of the structure in the virtual space.

The map also includes data such as the placement of structures 131. Therefore, if the map and objects correspond to the same terrain and structures 131 as in a town that exists in real space, the server 10 can generate a virtual space based on the map and objects, constructing roads 130 as they exist in the town, and recreating the terrain in which structures 131 are placed as they exist in the real town.

[Example of an interface for evaluation]
12 is a diagram showing an example of an interface for evaluation using a list. For example, each user 4 becomes an evaluator for other users and inputs evaluation points for the other users.

For example, the evaluation can be performed using a list as an interface. The list is a tabular interface that lists other users who have met in the virtual space. The list contains information about each user. Therefore, by looking at the list, a user can see the various statuses of other users.

When you request to become a "friend" with other users who you come into contact with through your avatar in the virtual space, the requested "friends" are displayed in a list. However, the interface is not limited to a list and can take other forms.

The following explanation uses the list of user 4A (hereinafter simply referred to as "list 140") as an example. First, assume that user 4A has a relationship of interaction with user 4B and user 4C in the virtual space. In other words, assume that user 4A has a relationship in which user 4B and user 4C are set as so-called "friends."

When a person is a "friend" in this way, list 140 displays information about the "friend" in list format. In list 140, for example, the "affiliation name" indicating which virtual space the person belongs to and each person's "avatar name" are displayed in a corresponding format. Note that list 140 may also include information other than the affiliation name and avatar name.

For example, the evaluation points are input through an interface of an evaluation button. Hereinafter, the evaluation button for user 4B's avatar is referred to as the "first button 141." Similarly, the evaluation button for user 4C's avatar is referred to as the "second button 142."

User 4A presses first button 141 to input an evaluation score for user 4B. Specifically, first button 141 is composed of two buttons, for example, "o" and "x". User 4A then inputs an operation to press either one of the two buttons, "o" or "x", into first button 141.

The "◯" button is pressed when giving a high rating to user 4B. On the other hand, the "×" button is pressed when giving a low rating to user 4B.

Similarly, by operating the second button 142, user 4A inputs an evaluation score for user 4B. In this manner, the evaluation score is input for each user by the evaluator.

Figure 13 is a diagram showing an example of an interface for evaluation when the avatars are in a close proximity state. For example, in the first virtual space 101, a state in which the distance between the tenth avatar 110 and the eleventh avatar 111 is equal to or less than a certain distance is considered to be a "close proximity state." Note that the threshold for determining the degree of closeness is, for example, set in advance.

In this way, user 4A can evaluate another person's avatar (in this example, the 11th avatar 111) that is in close proximity to the avatar that he or she is controlling (in this example, the 10th avatar 110).

For example, user 4A presses the first button 141 to input an evaluation score for user 4B, as in FIG. 12.

The interface for inputting the evaluation points may be in a format other than that described above.

The multiple evaluators may also include the administrator 3. In other words, a person other than the user 4 may be an evaluator. By having multiple evaluators evaluate in this way, it becomes easier to make a fair evaluation.

Then, the evaluation scores entered by the multiple evaluators are calculated to calculate the total score. For example, the total score is calculated by adding up all the evaluation scores.

The evaluation points entered by the evaluator may be weighted. That is, a weighting factor may be set in advance for each evaluation point. The total score is then calculated by adding up the weighting factor x evaluation point.

In addition, a numerical value other than the evaluation score or "weighting coefficient x evaluation score" may be used to calculate the total score. For example, the total score may include the results of evaluation (data in a quantified form) by AI (Artificial Intelligence) or a numerical value corresponding to prohibited behavior such as the use of prohibited words.

When using AI, the AI is trained in advance to learn good and bad behaviors. By learning in this way, the AI can evaluate actions when they are input, or predict avatars that may behave badly.

The total score may be made public to the user 4 or may be kept private. For example, the administrator 3 sets whether the total score is made public or private.

The evaluator evaluates the user's manners. For example, the evaluation is based on the user's words and actions, and any violation of manners, such as rough behavior, undesirable remarks, or unreasonable behavior, will result in a low evaluation. In addition, manners are also evaluated through the user's avatar through their operations.

[Examples of differences and limitations between the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102]
The server 10 imposes various restrictions on the second action, i.e., the second avatar. Therefore, the first virtual space 101 has fewer restrictions than the second virtual space 102, and therefore the first virtual space 101 is a virtual space with more favorable conditions than the second virtual space 102.

For example, restrictions may be imposed on event participation in the second action, action parameters when the second avatar moves in the second action, the field of view of the second avatar in the second action, the appearance of the second avatar, the appearance of objects present in the second virtual space 102, the atmosphere of the second virtual space 102, the costs incurred in the second action, the quality of service received in the second action, or a combination of these.

If event participation is subject to restrictions, restrictions may include, even if it is the same event, participation in the second virtual space 102 may have a limit on the number of times the event can be participated in, weaker production effects, a higher participation fee, a smaller number of participants, or less content for the event.

When behavioral parameters are subject to restrictions, restrictions may include the avatar's slow movement speed in the second virtual space 102, low jump, sluggish movement, narrow range of movement, or few movement patterns.

If the field of view of the second avatar is restricted, the restrictions may include a narrow field of view, poor image quality, limited freedom of camera work, low transparency, blurring, or only a close distance being displayed.

If the appearance of the second avatar is subject to restrictions, restrictions may include a limited number of types of avatars that can be used, clothing that can be worn by the avatar, and accessories.

When the appearance of an object in the second virtual space 102 is the subject of restriction, the restriction may be that the appearance of the object is darker than that in the first virtual space 101, that the brightness is low, or that part of the object is broken, etc.

If the atmosphere of the second virtual space 102 is the subject of restrictions, restrictions may include making the overall atmosphere of the second virtual space 102 appear darker than the first virtual space 101, reducing the color expression of avatars and NPCs (non-player characters), or playing dark-impression music.

If the costs incurred in the second action are subject to restrictions, restrictions may include higher fees paid when purchasing goods, receiving services, or participating in events in the second virtual space 102 compared to the first virtual space 101, additional fees being incurred, or coupons not being usable.

If the quality of service received in the second action is subject to restrictions, restrictions may include, even if the same service is received, the service received in the second virtual space 102 being more expensive, offering less support from the store clerk, having a bad attitude from the store clerk, or offering a smaller variety of services.

In addition, the first avatar may be able to act in both the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102, while the second avatar may be restricted to acting only in the second virtual space 102.

The types of restrictions are not limited to those described above. The type of restrictions may be any type that can be set by the administrator 3, and may be any type as long as the first virtual space 101 is a more comfortable space than the second virtual space 102.

[Example of adding a third virtual space]
FIG. 14 is a diagram showing an example of how the third virtual space 103 is generated.

It is preferable that the server 10 further generates a third virtual space 103 different from the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102.

For example, an avatar of a user who is participating for the first time (hereinafter referred to as a "third avatar") will first belong to the third virtual space 103. Therefore, when a third avatar joins for the first time, the server 10 assigns the third avatar to the third virtual space 103 first, rather than to the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102.

Actions taken by the third avatar are referred to as the "third action." Third actions are more strongly restricted than first actions, but less strongly restricted than second actions. Hereinafter, restrictions imposed on first actions are referred to as the "first restriction." Similarly, restrictions imposed on second actions are referred to as the "second restriction," and restrictions imposed on third actions are referred to as the "third restriction."

The third restriction is a stronger restriction than the first restriction. On the other hand, the third restriction is a weaker restriction than the second restriction.

For example, suppose that the first limit, second limit, and third limit all impose a fee for an event. Of these restrictions, the first limit is set to the lowest fee. Meanwhile, the second limit is set to the highest fee. The third limit is set to a fee that is intermediate between the first and second limits. In this way, the third limit is a restriction that is performed with an intensity intermediate between the first and second limits.

In other words, the third virtual space 103 has more restrictions than the first virtual space 101, but not as many restrictions as the second virtual space 102. In this way, the third virtual space 103 is located halfway between the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102.

The third avatar has not yet participated, so has taken few actions and its evaluation is unclear. Therefore, it is desirable to create a period during which it can be evaluated using the third virtual space 103.

Therefore, after a certain period of time has passed, the third avatar is assigned to belong to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. The existence of such a third virtual space 103 makes it possible to more accurately determine which virtual space the avatar belongs to.

In addition, to allow user 4 to recognize the differences between each virtual space, the avatar may be able to temporarily change affiliation to the first virtual space 101, the second virtual space 102, and the third virtual space 103. Because this is temporary, after a certain period of time, the affiliation of each avatar reverts to its original affiliation. By having this experience, user 4 can get a real feel for the comfort of the first virtual space 101. In this way, when user 4 gets a feel for the comfort or inferiority of other virtual spaces, he or she will improve their manners and try to belong to the one with better conditions. This can lead to improved manners for user 4 in the virtual space.

[Overall processing example]
15 is a diagram showing an example of the overall process. For example, the server 10 performs the following procedure.

In step S01, the server 10 generates a first virtual space 101 and a second virtual space 102. Thereafter, avatars belong to each of the generated virtual spaces.

In step S02, the server 10 controls the avatars based on the operation of the user 4. Through such control, each avatar performs an action.

In step S03, the server 10 evaluates the user. The evaluation points from multiple evaluators are then tallied to calculate a total score. The user's score is determined based on the total score calculated in this manner.

In step S04, the server 10 determines the affiliation of each avatar based on the evaluation results determined by referring to the total score, etc. Then, the server 10 assigns each avatar based on the affiliation.

In step S05, the server 10 restricts the second action by the second avatar. That is, the server 10 compares the first virtual space 101 with the second virtual space 102, and makes the latter a more favorable virtual space in terms of cost, performance, etc., since no restrictions are imposed.

When performing the overall processing as described above, in system 1, the overall processing will follow the sequence below.

Figure 16 is a diagram showing the sequence for realizing the overall processing. Note that in Figure 16, the same steps as in Figure 15 are given the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted.

Step S01 is executed by the server 10 in advance, before the service starts. That is, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are generated in advance. Then, when the service starts, the avatar is set to belong to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102.

When the service is started, the user terminal 20 inputs the operation result of the user 4. This operation result and the processing result at the user terminal 20 are transmitted to the server 10. The data transmitted in this manner includes an evaluation score for the user.

Therefore, in step S03, the server 10 receives the evaluation points sent for each user terminal 20, and calculates the total score by tallying them up. Based on the total score calculated in this way, the server 10 determines the evaluation result.

Based on the evaluation results, the server 10 determines the affiliation and assigns the avatar. The assignment result, for example, the avatar's affiliation name, etc. is sent to the user terminal 20 and output to the user 4.

Then, the server 10 restricts the second virtual space 102, i.e., the second action by the second avatar.

The overall process is not limited to the steps and processing order described above. For example, the overall process may include steps other than those described above, or may execute steps in an order different from that described above.

[Functional configuration example]
17 is a diagram showing an example of a functional configuration. Specifically, the server 10 functions to include a first generating means 1F1, a second generating means 1F2, a first control means 1F3, a second control means 1F4, and a limiting means 1F5 based on a program. Furthermore, the server 10 may function to further include a third generating means 1F6, a sorting means 1F7, a third control means 1F8, a determining means 1F11, a calculating means 1F12, and an evaluating means 1F13. Moreover, the user terminal 20 may function to include a list output means 1F9 and an operating means 1F10.

The first generation means 1F1 performs a first generation procedure to generate the first virtual space 101. For example, the first generation means 1F1 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second generation means 1F2 performs a second generation procedure to generate the second virtual space 102. For example, the second generation means 1F2 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The first control means 1F3 performs a first control procedure to control the first avatar to be able to perform a first action. For example, the first control means 1F3 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second control means 1F4 performs a second control procedure to control the second avatar to be able to perform a second action. For example, the second control means 1F4 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The restriction means 1F5 performs a restriction procedure to restrict the second action. For example, the restriction means 1F5 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The third generation means 1F6 performs a first generation procedure to generate the third virtual space 103. For example, the third generation means 1F6 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The allocation means 1F7 performs an allocation procedure for allocating the third avatar to the third virtual space 103. For example, the allocation means 1F7 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The third control means 1F8 performs a third control procedure to control the third avatar so that it can perform a third action. For example, the third control means 1F8 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The list output means 1F9 performs a list output procedure that outputs a list in which the affiliation name and avatar name correspond to each avatar. For example, the list output means 1F9 is realized by the processor 21, etc.

The operation means 1F10 performs an operation procedure for inputting evaluation points for each user. For example, the operation means 1F10 is realized by the processor 21, etc.

The determination means 1F11 performs a determination procedure to determine whether the first virtual space or the second virtual space belongs to, based on the evaluation result of the first action or the second action. For example, the determination means 1F11 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

When multiple evaluators input their evaluation scores via the operation means 1F10, the calculation means 1F12 performs a calculation procedure for each user terminal to calculate a total score based on the evaluation scores. For example, the calculation means 1F12 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The evaluation means 1F13 performs an evaluation procedure to determine the evaluation result based on the total score calculated by the calculation means 1F12. For example, the evaluation means 1F13 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

With the above configuration, the server 10 can generate two or more virtual spaces, such as the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102. Each avatar belongs to one of the multiple virtual spaces.

Which virtual space a user 4 belongs to is evaluated according to their manners. Since comfort is adjusted differently depending on the virtual space, user 4, wanting to be treated preferentially, will operate their avatar in a manner that observes good manners within the virtual space. In this way, by generating multiple virtual spaces and intentionally imposing restrictions to create differences in comfort even in virtual spaces that reproduce the same specific location, it is possible to increase the user's interest in the virtual space.

[About the Metaverse]
The virtual space is a so-called metaverse space. The metaverse is a combination of the words "meta" (transcendence) and "universe." The metaverse refers to a three-dimensional virtual space on a computer network in which many people can participate and in which participants can act freely.

Multiple people will participate in the metaverse using avatars. Furthermore, in the metaverse space, transactions may be carried out in a space created using three-dimensional image processing.

In many cases, arbitrary tokens are used for transactions on the metaverse. Various types of transactions can be carried out, such as online games, virtual live shows, or electronic commerce (EC).

The metaverse may also be realized using "XR" such as AR (Augmented Reality) or VR (Virtual Reality). The metaverse may also be realized using other technologies such as 3D CG, high-speed communication technology, AI, and blockchain.

[Configuration using auxiliary device]
The avatars are the alter egos of the user 4 in the virtual space. Therefore, in the virtual space, the actions of each avatar reflect the words and actions of the user associated with that avatar.

For example, the user terminal 20 operates the avatar in the virtual space in conjunction with the operation of the user 4 inputted to the operation device. The operation of the avatar includes, for example, moving in the virtual space, moving various parts of the body, changing posture, changing facial expressions, speaking, or moving objects placed in the virtual space.

Furthermore, the user terminal 20 transmits avatar data indicating the avatar's movement or status change to the server 10 via the communication network 2. Next, the server 10 transmits the avatar data received from the user terminal 20 to other user terminals 20 via the communication network 2. Then, the user terminal 20 updates the movement or status of the corresponding avatar in the virtual space based on the avatar data received from the server 10.

On the other hand, avatar-related processing may be performed by the user terminal 20 or by the server 10. For example, the user terminal 20 receives various information and requests from one or more servers 10.

Information such as progress information, distribution information, and user information is sent from the server 10 to the user terminal 20.

The progress information is the progress of events and the like in the virtual space. Specifically, the progress information is type information of one or more avatars placed in the virtual space, avatar coordinate information, avatar action information, and other information.

Avatar action information is information that indicates the avatar's posture, use of an item, use of a skill, jumping, etc.

Avatar type information is information that indicates the avatar's settings, the avatar's equipment, or the avatar's appearance, etc.

The distribution information is information indicating information for reproducing an event in a virtual space in a viewing space (which is a real space). The distribution information may also include type information of one or more avatars placed in the virtual space, coordinate information of the avatars, action information of the avatars, and other information.

The above-mentioned processing may be performed auxiliary by an information processing device other than the server 10 and the user terminal 20.

Figure 18 is a diagram showing an example of a configuration using an auxiliary device. Compared to the example shown in Figure 1, the configuration shown in Figure 17 differs in that an auxiliary device 60 is added. Note that the auxiliary device 60 may be a configuration that is used temporarily.

The auxiliary device 60 is an information processing device that is installed near the user terminal 20 (in this example, it is installed near the user terminal 20A, but it may be installed near another device). The auxiliary device 60 then executes a specific process in part or in whole on behalf of the user terminal 20 or the server 10.

For example, the auxiliary device 60 is equipped with a device specialized for graphic processing and performs graphic processing at high speed. In this way, so-called edge computing may be performed by installing the auxiliary device 60 or the like. In this way, the above-mentioned processing may be executed by utilizing the hardware resources of various information processing devices. Therefore, the above-mentioned processing may be executed by an information processing device different from the one described above.

[Second embodiment]
The second embodiment is realized, for example, by the system 1 shown in Fig. 1 in the same manner as the first embodiment. The following description will focus on the differences from the first embodiment, and redundant description will be omitted.

[Example of change of affiliation]
19 is a diagram showing an example of a state before a change in affiliation in the second embodiment. First, the server 10 determines whether all avatars belong to the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102.

For example, if there is inappropriate comment (such as a comment or chat that includes a so-called NG word), improper procedure (such as an illegal act or an action that violates regulations), a report, or a violation of etiquette, the server 10 determines that improper behavior has occurred and changes the user's affiliation from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102.

Specifically, undesirable behavior includes trolling, disruptive behavior, bumping into or passing through other avatars, chasing other avatars, etc. Additionally, trolling in voice chat or messages, etc., also falls under undesirable behavior. Additionally, not engaging in desirable behavior despite having the opportunity to do so also falls under undesirable behavior.

On the other hand, desirable behaviors include cleaning, helping other avatars, donating, or returning lost items.

Changes may be made based on the results of the evaluation by the evaluator.

However, there may be coincidences where behavior matches or resembles fraudulent behavior. Other examples include so-called "false reports."

In other words, even if an avatar is appropriate to belong to the first virtual space 101, there is a possibility that it may be mistakenly subject to a change of affiliation due to accidental or fraudulent operation.

On the other hand, even if an avatar generally commits a lot of fraud, there may be avatars who are good at avoiding fraudulent behavior by not violating the rules.

If an avatar is mistakenly placed in an inappropriate virtual space due to some kind of mistake, it will be placed in the appropriate virtual space.

Figure 20 shows an example of a change made by specification. Note that Figure 20 shows the case after the decision shown in Figure 19 has been made.

As shown in FIG. 19, the server 10 uniformly decides whether an avatar belongs to the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. Therefore, such processing may lack fairness. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 20, each user terminal 20 accepts an operation to specify a change target to correct an incorrect decision.

It is preferable that other users can designate the object to be changed. Hereinafter, the person who makes the designation is referred to as the "designator." The designator is, for example, a user other than the user who operates the second avatar (in this example, user 4C) (user 4A and user 4B). Note that the designators may include administrator 3.

The designation is made, for example, by inputting an operation in which the designated person selects from a list. Specifically, the user terminal 20A accepts an operation by the user 4A to designate the second avatar. Similarly, the user terminal 20B accepts an operation by the user 4B to designate the second avatar. Furthermore, if the designated person is the administrator 3, the server 10 accepts an operation by the administrator 3 to designate the second avatar.

When an operation to designate such a second avatar is performed, the server 10 accepts the designation request. The server 10 may also tally up the number of designations. Next, based on this request, the server 10 changes the affiliation of the second avatar from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102.

In this way, when multiple people designate an avatar, affiliation can be determined fairly. For example, it is possible to rescue a second avatar that has ended up belonging to the second virtual space 102 due to an incorrect operation.

On the other hand, avatars that are seen by other users as malicious and prone to fraud may be designated to change their affiliation from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102 based on the user's specifications.

Furthermore, if such rescue is possible, User 4 will believe that if their usual behavior is appropriate, they will be rescued even if they are mistakenly subject to change, which will lead to improved manners in the virtual space.

The number of avatars that can be specified may be limited. That is, the change may be made based on the number of first avatars and second avatars (or the ratio of the numbers). If the ratio of the number of first avatars and second avatars becomes unbalanced and the number of avatars in one virtual space becomes extremely large, comfort may be lost.

Therefore, the number of avatars that can be specified may be limited to prevent frequent changes that result in an extreme imbalance in the number of avatars in one virtual space or the other. Restricting designation in this way makes it possible to adjust the balance of the number of avatars belonging to the virtual spaces.

In addition, a period during which designation can be made (hereinafter referred to as the "designated period") may be set. For example, the designated period is set in advance by the administrator 3.

In addition, the targets that the designator can specify may be, for example, only avatars that are listed (i.e., only avatars that are "friends" can be specified, and avatars with which there is no interaction cannot be specified).

The designated avatar may be changed if it is evaluated for a certain period of time and receives a certain level of evaluation within that period. In other words, even if a designation is made, it is acceptable to wait and see how things go within the specified period, and it is not necessary to change the avatar immediately even if a designation is made.

Alternatively, a trial period may be set for the specified avatar after the affiliation is changed. During the trial period, the changed avatar is evaluated. In other words, a "trial period" may be set. When the trial period ends, if the evaluation result indicates that the affiliation is appropriate, the change of affiliation is confirmed. On the other hand, if the evaluation result indicates that the affiliation is not appropriate, the change of affiliation is canceled.

If there is a set period of time, such as a "predetermined period" or a "trial period," during which behavior is evaluated to see if it is appropriate to change, it will be possible to reduce the number of avatars with inappropriate affiliations.

Furthermore, the change may be made, for example, based on the evaluation results. In other words, the change may be made with reference to a total score calculated based on the evaluation scores of multiple evaluators.

For example, the evaluation result is converted into a score, and the score changes numerically depending on the evaluator's operations. A threshold value (hereinafter referred to as the "change standard value") that is subject to change for this score is set in advance.

In the first virtual space 101, when the score falls below the change reference value, the first avatar becomes the target for change. On the other hand, in the second virtual space 102, when the score exceeds the change reference value, the second avatar becomes the target for change.

In addition, when a change occurs, other users may be notified that the avatar in question has changed its affiliation and moved to a different virtual space.

It is preferable that the decision as to whether or not to change affiliation is made periodically. For example, the period is set in advance by the administrator 3. Specifically, the period is set to once a week on the same day of the week.

[Example of giving assignments]
A "task" may be given to determine whether or not to make a change. For example, the designated second avatar will not immediately change its affiliation, but will be a "subject of consideration." Note that the condition for the subject of consideration may be something other than the designation.

The second avatar that is considered is given a task. Then, only those that have completed the task are changed.

The assignments are set in advance, for example, by the administrator 3. Specifically, the assignments are set so that actions taken within a set period of time (hereinafter referred to as the "assignment period") will be evaluated.

In other words, if the behavior during the assignment period is favorable, the evaluation result will be that the subject may be allowed to change its affiliation to the first virtual space 101.

By giving assignments and evaluating them in this way, we can reduce the number of avatars with inappropriate affiliations.

[Examples of special assessors]
An evaluator with special authority (hereinafter referred to as a "special evaluator") may be appointed.

Special authority is the authority to evaluate changes in affiliation on its own (hereafter referred to as "special evaluation"). In other words, if evaluations from multiple evaluators are not collected and a special evaluation is made by a special evaluator, the affiliation of each avatar will be changed regardless of the results of other evaluations.

Even in the case of changes based on special evaluation, tasks may be set, evaluation may be performed for a specified period, or evaluation may be performed for a trial period.

[Example of different space]
The change is not limited to a change from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102, or from the second virtual space 102 to the first virtual space 101. For example, a virtual space different from the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 (hereinafter referred to as a "different space") may be generated in advance. The change may be made to a different space.

The different space is a so-called VIP (Very Important Person) space, etc. Therefore, the different space may have better conditions than the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102, or may have conditions intermediate between the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102.

There are cases where it is better not to have the avatar that is the subject of the change belong to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102. In such cases, it is preferable to have the avatar that is the subject of the change belong to a different space.

Note that belonging to another dimension may be temporary.

[Overall processing example]
21 is a diagram showing an example of the overall process. For example, the server 10 performs the following procedure.

In step S01, the server 10 generates a first virtual space 101 and a second virtual space 102. Thereafter, avatars belong to each of the generated virtual spaces.

In step S02, the server 10 controls the avatars based on the operation of the user 4. Through such control, each avatar performs an action.

In step S21, the server 10 determines the affiliation of all avatars.

In step S22, the server 10 changes the affiliation based on the evaluation results, etc. The trigger for the change is set in advance.

When performing the overall processing as described above, in system 1, the overall processing will follow the sequence below.

Figure 22 is a diagram showing the sequence for realizing the overall processing. Note that in Figure 22, steps similar to those in Figure 21 are given the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted.

Step S01 is executed by the server 10 in advance, before the service starts. That is, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are generated in advance. Then, when the service starts, the avatar is set to belong to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102.

When the service is started, the user terminal 20 inputs the operation result of the user 4. This operation result and the processing result in the user terminal 20 are transmitted to the server 10. For example, the avatar operated by the user 4 acts for a certain period of time.

In step S02, when an operation for the avatar is input to the user terminal 20, the avatar is controlled based on the result of the operation. Based on this result, step S03 is executed.

In step S21, the server 10 determines the affiliation and assigns the avatar. The result of the assignment, for example the avatar's affiliation name, is sent to the user terminal 20 and output to the user 4.

Then, the server 10 restricts the second virtual space 102, i.e., the second action by the second avatar.

If the determination in step S21 is incorrect, the user terminal 20 accepts operations such as nomination by other users for the user who is considered to be in the incorrect affiliation. Based on these nominations, in step S22, the server 10 changes the affiliation of the avatar of the nominated user.

The overall process is not limited to the steps and processing order described above. For example, the overall process may include steps other than those described above, or may execute steps in an order different from that described above.

[Functional configuration example]
23 is a diagram showing an example of a functional configuration. Specifically, the server 10 functions based on a program to include a first generating means 1F1, a second generating means 1F2, a first control means 1F3, a second control means 1F4, a determining means 1F11, and a changing means 1F20. Furthermore, the server 10 may function to include a limiting means 1F5, a first determining means 1F21, and a second determining means 1F22.

The first generation means 1F1 performs a first generation procedure to generate the first virtual space 101. For example, the first generation means 1F1 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second generation means 1F2 performs a second generation procedure to generate the second virtual space 102. For example, the second generation means 1F2 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The first control means 1F3 performs a first control procedure to control the first avatar to be able to perform a first action. For example, the first control means 1F3 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second control means 1F4 performs a second control procedure to control the second avatar to be able to perform a second action. For example, the second control means 1F4 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The restricting means 1F5 performs a restricting procedure to restrict the second action. For example, the restricting means 1F5 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The determination means 1F11 performs a determination procedure to determine the avatar's affiliation. For example, the determination means 1F11 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The change means 1F20 performs a change procedure to change the affiliation of the second avatar to the first virtual space 101. For example, the change means 1F20 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The first determination means 1F21 performs a first determination procedure to determine whether or not to change the affiliation of the second avatar based on the evaluation results made within a specified period for the change target. For example, the first determination means 1F21 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second judgment means 1F22 performs a second judgment procedure in which, after changing the affiliation of the first avatar or the second avatar, it makes a judgment to cancel the change in affiliation of the first avatar or the second avatar or to confirm the change in affiliation of the first avatar or the second avatar based on the evaluation results of the first avatar or the second avatar made within the trial period. For example, the second judgment means 1F22 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

With the above configuration, the server 10 can generate two or more virtual spaces, such as the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102. Each avatar is then determined to belong to one of the multiple virtual spaces.

Which virtual space User 4 belongs to is evaluated according to his/her manners. Since the comfort level is adjusted differently depending on the virtual space, User 4, wanting to be treated preferentially, will operate his/her avatar in the virtual space in a manner that observes good manners.

In this way, by generating multiple virtual spaces and intentionally imposing restrictions to create differences in comfort even in virtual spaces that recreate the same specific location, it is possible to improve user manners in the virtual space.

Furthermore, if it were possible to change the affiliation of an avatar who mistakenly belongs to an inappropriate virtual space due to some mistake, the number of avatars with inappropriate affiliations could be reduced, which would lead to improved manners.

In a system where the administrator 3 or AI is used to monitor fraudulent activities, a single action can result in a user being transferred to a virtual space with poor conditions, or their account can be frozen, meaning that even well-behaved users may be subject to a change by chance.

Furthermore, if the Administrator 3 or other person makes the decision alone, the criteria for judgment will vary depending on the person in charge, or the criteria will be left to the discretion of the individual and will tend to be vague. In addition, it is difficult to monitor constantly, and there are cases where a judgment is made based solely on "coincidence" behavior. In contrast, if the evaluations of people who know the user well, such as "friends," are added, it becomes easier to properly evaluate whether or not the affiliation is inappropriate.

In this way, "inappropriate" refers to a state in which one's affiliation does not correspond to etiquette.

Also, in many cases, allowing users to evaluate or specify can reduce the sense of unfairness compared to having a single administrator 3 make the decision. In this way, it is desirable to be able to change affiliation based on the results of evaluations by multiple people.

[Third embodiment]
The third embodiment is realized, for example, by the system 1 shown in Fig. 1 in the same manner as the first embodiment. The following description will focus on the differences from the first embodiment, and redundant description will be omitted.

[Example of event occurrence]
Fig. 24 is a diagram showing an example of event occurrence. Hereinafter, an event that occurs in the first virtual space 101 is referred to as a "first event". Meanwhile, an event that occurs in the second virtual space 102 is referred to as a "second event". Furthermore, parameters used in the first event and the second event are referred to as "event parameters". Hereinafter, event parameters are referred to as "event points". However, event parameters may be in a format other than a numerical value.

The first event is an event that provides the first avatar with an opportunity to perform a first type of behavior in the first virtual space. The first type of behavior is, for example, undesirable behavior. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 24, a lost item 201 is generated near the first avatar. The event is generated, for example, by the server 10.

When the first avatar approaches the lost item 201, the options "make it your property" or "deliver it" are displayed, and the user 4B inputs an operation to select one of them into the user terminal 20B.

These options include commands that fall under "undesirable behavior." In this example, the command "make it yours" is selected, and the behavior of trying to illegally obtain the lost item 201 falls under the category of undesirable behavior.

In addition, actions such as making a gesture to pick up the lost item 201, then passing by a specific object (such as a police box object) without delivering the lost item 201 to it, are considered to be undesirable actions.

The behavior of moving away from the avatar who dropped the lost item 201 after witnessing the item being dropped is considered undesirable behavior.

In this way, it is possible to detect not only commands but also the content of actions and determine whether they constitute undesirable behavior.

If undesirable behavior occurs in the first event, event points may be deducted. Alternatively, the participant may be transferred from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102.

In this way, a first event that induces undesirable behavior occurs in the first virtual space 101. Note that the first event is not limited to the events described above, and may be content that induces other undesirable behavior.

The second event is an event that gives the second avatar an opportunity to perform a second type of behavior in the second virtual space. The second type of behavior is, for example, a desirable behavior. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 24, an avatar requesting rescue is generated near the second avatar. Note that the avatar requesting rescue may be one operated by another user or may be an NPC.

The second avatar can then select an action to take when an avatar requests rescue, such as "perform rescue" or "do not perform rescue." Alternatively, the action may be to select an image, etc.

For example, a rescue action may be to heal an avatar requesting rescue using a recovery item. In addition, if the user makes a gesture of a rescue action (such as lifting someone up), this may be regarded as a rescue action.

It is then determined whether this action corresponds to a "desirable action." In this example, performing the second action of "performing a rescue action" to help another avatar in need corresponds to a desirable action.

When favorable behavior is performed in the second event, event points are added. Or, affiliation may be changed from the second virtual space 102 to the first virtual space 101.

In this way, a second event that invites desirable behavior occurs in the second virtual space 102. Note that the second event is not limited to the events described above, and may invite other desirable behavior.

When the event points reach a certain value (hereafter referred to as the "change threshold value"), each avatar becomes subject to change. The change threshold value is set in advance.

In other words, a second avatar that exhibits many desirable behaviors will have event points added to it, and therefore is highly likely to be transferred from the second virtual space 102 to the first virtual space 101 based on the event points.

On the other hand, a first avatar that engages in a lot of undesirable behavior will have its event points deducted, and so there is a high possibility that it will be transferred from the first virtual space 101 to the second virtual space 102 based on its event points.

In addition to the result of the event, the behavior in relation to the event may also be evaluated. For example, even if the result, such as returning the lost item 201 within the time limit, is not achieved due to time constraints, if the behavior of picking up the item and attempting to return it is taken as favorable behavior, event points may be added.

When the virtual space to which a user belongs becomes fixed, the user 4 loses stimulation. Also, the evaluations of others, such as "GOOD" or "BAD", tend to change less and become fixed. In this case, intentionally generating an event can provide stimulation. Also, changes caused by events can prevent the number of avatars from being concentrated in one virtual space.

In this way, when the second event occurs, the second avatar has the opportunity to move to the first virtual space 101 where conditions are more favorable.

On the other hand, when the first event occurs, there is a risk that the first avatar will be transferred to the second virtual space 102, which has adverse conditions.

Such events do not allow user 4 to intentionally change the virtual space they belong to, but rather act as an opportunity to change affiliation based on good or bad manners. Such events encourage each avatar to observe good manners, thereby improving manners in the virtual space.

In addition, when an event occurs in a virtual space, the virtual space to which an avatar belongs will often change. This will result in an increase in avatars moving between multiple virtual spaces. In this way, avatars are prevented from becoming fixed in their place and this encourages replacement.

The first event and the second event are planned, for example, by the administrator 3, and are set and generated in advance. However, the first event and the second event may also be planned by the user 4, etc.

For example, user 4 may be able to set the type of event to be generated, the time at which the event will be generated (including random), or the area in which the event will be generated (including random), etc.

When User 4 who planned an event participates in the event, it is desirable that the event points do not increase or decrease, and the affiliation does not change depending on the event. In this way, if there is no increase or decrease in event points or change in affiliation due to an event that the user planned, it is possible to prevent the user from planning an event that is convenient for the user himself, such as a "self-initiated event."

The event may occur based on the ratio of the number of first avatars to the number of second avatars, for example. That is, the server 10 may generate an event when a bias occurs in the ratio of the number of first avatars to the number of second avatars. The trigger may be a time, a condition, a user's request, or the like.

For example, when the number of first avatars is greater than the number of second avatars, the server 10 generates a first event. In this way, an event is generated to reduce the number of first avatars and increase the number of second avatars. By generating an event in this way, the ratio of the number of first avatars to the number of second avatars can be adjusted.

Event points may also be displayed as a ranking. That is, avatars with many or few event points may be displayed so that users 4 can see. In this way, knowing the number of event points in the ranking allows users 4 to know their own ranking, and users 4 who are particularly low in ranking may consider the possibility that the virtual space they belong to may be changed to a virtual space with poor conditions, and may consider improving their manners. In this way, manners in the virtual space can be improved.

[Overall processing example]
25 is a diagram showing an example of the overall process. For example, the server 10 performs the following procedure.

In step S01, the server 10 generates a first virtual space 101 and a second virtual space 102. Thereafter, avatars belong to each of the generated virtual spaces.

In step S02, the server 10 controls the avatars based on the operation of the user 4. Through such control, each avatar performs an action.

In step S21, the server 10 determines the affiliation of all butters.

In step S31, the server 10 generates an event. Note that the event may be generated when a condition is satisfied or periodically.

In step S32, the server 10 changes the affiliation based on the event points. For example, the event points for each avatar may change when the event in step S31 ends. Therefore, there may be avatars whose affiliation is subject to change based on the change reference value. The server 10 changes such avatars to an affiliation that corresponds to the event points.

Figure 26 is a diagram showing the sequence for realizing the overall processing. Note that in Figure 26, steps similar to those in Figure 25 are given the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted.

Step S01 is executed by the server 10 in advance, before the service starts. That is, the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102 are generated in advance. Then, when the service starts, the avatar is set to belong to either the first virtual space 101 or the second virtual space 102.

When the service is started, the user terminal 20 inputs the operation result of the user 4. This operation result and the processing result at the user terminal 20 are transmitted to the server 10. The data transmitted in this manner includes an evaluation score for the user.

Therefore, in step S21, the server 10 receives the evaluations sent by each user terminal 20, tallying them up and calculating the total score. Based on the total score calculated in this way, the server 10 determines the evaluation result.

Based on the evaluation results, the server 10 determines the affiliation and assigns the avatar. The assignment result, for example, the avatar's affiliation name, etc. is sent to the user terminal 20 and output to the user 4.

Step S31 is executed periodically by the server 10, for example. Thus, the event is held at regular intervals that are set in advance in the server 10. However, the event may also be held in response to a request from the user 4, etc. For this reason, a request to hold an event may be input to the user terminal 20.

In step S32, the server 10 compares the event points for each user 4 with the change reference value to determine whether or not the event points are to be changed. If the event points are to be changed, the server 10 changes the avatar's affiliation.

Then, the server 10 restricts the second virtual space 102, i.e., the second action by the second avatar.

The overall process is not limited to the steps and processing order described above. For example, the overall process may include steps other than those described above, or may execute steps in an order different from that described above.

[Functional configuration example]
27 is a diagram showing an example of a functional configuration. Specifically, the server 10 functions based on a program to include a first generating means 1F1, a second generating means 1F2, a first control means 1F3, a second control means 1F4, a determining means 1F11, a changing means 1F20, and a generating means 1F30. Furthermore, the server 10 may function to include a limiting means 1F5.

The first generation means 1F1 performs a first generation procedure to generate the first virtual space 101. For example, the first generation means 1F1 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second generation means 1F2 performs a second generation procedure to generate the second virtual space 102. For example, the second generation means 1F2 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The first control means 1F3 performs a first control procedure to control the first avatar to be able to perform a first action. For example, the first control means 1F3 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The second control means 1F4 performs a second control procedure to control the second avatar to be able to perform a second action. For example, the second control means 1F4 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The restriction means 1F5 performs a restriction procedure to restrict the second action. For example, the restriction means 1F5 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The determination means 1F11 performs a determination procedure to determine the avatar's affiliation. For example, the determination means 1F11 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The change means 1F20 performs a change procedure to change the affiliation of the second avatar to the first virtual space 101 based on the result of the event or an action taken in response to the event. For example, the change means 1F20 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

The generating means 1F30 performs a generating procedure to generate the first event or the second event. For example, the generating means 1F30 is realized by the processor 11, etc.

With the above configuration, the server 10 can generate two or more virtual spaces, such as the first virtual space 101 and the second virtual space 102. Each avatar is then determined to belong to one of the multiple virtual spaces.

Which virtual space a user 4 belongs to is evaluated according to their manners. Since comfort is adjusted differently depending on the virtual space, user 4, wanting to be treated preferentially, will operate their avatar in a manner that observes good manners within the virtual space. In this way, by generating multiple virtual spaces and intentionally imposing restrictions to create differences in comfort even in virtual spaces that reproduce the same specific location, it is possible to improve the manners of users in the virtual spaces.

Furthermore, if it were possible to change the affiliation of an avatar who mistakenly belongs to an inappropriate virtual space due to some mistake, the number of avatars with inappropriate affiliations could be reduced, which would lead to improved manners.

When an event occurs, the virtual space affiliation will change due to the event. This reduces the chance of the same avatar remaining in one virtual space for a long period of time. Also, changing affiliation due to events can increase the amount of movement between multiple virtual spaces.

Furthermore, if the ratio of people is biased towards one virtual space, events can be used to adjust the ratio to be closer to equal. In this way, it is possible to reduce the likelihood of a particular avatar being fixed to the same virtual space, and to alleviate the fixation of avatars belonging to virtual spaces.
