Abstract
Methods and apparatuses for adjusting a game scene are set forth herein. The method includes receiving heart rate information of a user, wherein the user wears the computing device to play the game, and based on the received heart rate information of the user, adjusting at least one element in the game scene of the game. By using a smart wearable device to acquire the heart rate information of the user playing the game, the game scene of the game can be adjusted according to the heart rate information. Therefore, the game can be made to be more interesting by receiving multi-dimensional interaction information of the user.
Claims14
A system for playing a game and adjusting one or more elements of a game scene within the game, the system comprising:
- a wearable device including one or more sensors for receiving heart rate information of a user while the user is playing the game;
- a game console configured for wireless communication with the wearable device, the game console including a first processor and a first memory;
- and
- a game server in communication with the game console, the game server including a second processor and a second memory, wherein the game is implemented using the game console and the game server,
- wherein the first processor of the game console executes instructions stored in the first memory of the game console to:
- determine whether the user is wearing the wearable device;
- responsive to a determination that the user is wearing the wearable device, establish a connection with the wearable device;
- use the connection established with the wearable device to transmit a request for the heart rate information to the wearable device;
- receive the heart rate information from the wearable device responsive to the request for the heart rate information;
- transmit the heart rate information to the game server;
- receive instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene from the game server based on the prior transmission of the heart rate information to the game server;
- and
- adjust the one or more elements of the game scene according to the instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene, and
- wherein the second processor of the game server executes instructions stored in the second memory of the game server to:
- receive the heart rate information from the game console;
- map the heart rate information to a timeline of the user in the game, the timeline corresponding to the game scene;
- determine one or more emotion fluctuations of the user based on variations within the heart rate information over the timeline to which the heart rate information is mapped;
- generate the instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene according to the one or more emotion fluctuations of the user;
- and
- transmit the instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene to the game console.
A method for adjusting one or more elements of a game scene based on heart rate information of a user of a wearable device, the method comprising:
- determining, by a game console configured for communication with the wearable device, whether the user is wearing the wearable device, the wearable device including one or more sensors for receiving the heart rate information of the user;
- responsive to determining that the user is wearing the wearable device, causing the game console to connect to the wearable device;
- using a connection established between the game console and the wearable device to transmit, from the game console, a request for the heart rate information to the wearable device;
- receiving, by the game console, the heart rate information from the wearable device responsive to the request for the heart rate information;
- transmitting, from the game console, the heart rate information to a game server in communication with the game console, wherein a game including the game scene is run at least in part using the game server;
- mapping, by the game server, the heart rate information with a timeline of the user in the game, the timeline corresponding to the game scene;
- determining, by the game server, one or more emotion fluctuations of the user based on variations within the heart rate information over the timeline to which the heart rate information is mapped;
- generating, by the game server, instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene according to the one or more emotion fluctuations of the user;
- receiving, by the game console, the instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene from the game server;
- and
- adjusting, by the game console, the one or more elements of the game scene according to the instructions for adjusting the one or more elements of the game scene.
