3D mobile renderer for user-generated avatar, apparel, and accessories

An apparatus configured for virtual representation creation, the apparatus comprising:

• a memory configured to store an image;
• and
• one or more processors in communication with the memory, the one or more processors configured to:
• divide the image to be rendered into n containers, wherein the image represents an avatar of a user, wherein the avatar is a virtual representation of the user;
• determine a respective category of content, from among a plurality of categories of content, for each of the n containers;
• determine a respective shader program, from among a plurality of shader programs, for each respective container of the n containers , wherein determining the respective shader program is based on the respective category of the respective container,. wherein the respective category includes one of a face category of the avatar, a body category of the avatar, a face-related accessories category of the avatar, and a body- related accessories and other accessories category of the avatar;
• independently render the n containers using the determined respective shader programs according to a rule-based engine to create the avatar, wherein the rule-based engine renders a container of the n containers based on a user request;
• and
• display the avatar.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to:

• divide the image to be rendered into n containers, wherein the image represents an avatar of a user, wherein the avatar is a virtual representation of the user;
• determine a respective category of content, from among a plurality of categories of content, for each of the n containers;
• determine a respective shader program, from among a plurality of shader programs, for each respective container of the n containers, wherein determining the respective shader program is based on the respective category of the respective container, wherein the respective category includes one of a face category of the avatar, a body category of the avatar, a face-related accessories category of the avatar, and a body-related accessories and other accessories category of the avatar;
• independently render the n containers using the determined respective shader programs according to a rule-based engine to create the avatar, wherein the rule-based engine renders a container of the n containers based on a user request;
• and
• display the avatar.
