Abstract
Provided is a virtual input device that includes an input/output unit that acquires image data captured by a camera of a virtual reality display device and output display information to be displayed on a display of the virtual reality display device to the virtual reality display device, a video analysis unit that analyzes the image data to specify a position at which a virtual terminal is to be displayed, and a display information generation unit that generates the display information including the virtual terminal based on user information of a user wearing the virtual reality display device.
Claims10
A virtual input device comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
- and
- a processor connected to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
- acquire image data captured by a camera of a virtual reality display device and output display information to be displayed on a display of the virtual reality display device to the virtual reality display device;
- analyze the image data to detect a physical operation terminal disposed in a real world from the image data;
- specify a position of the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device
- determine a position of each key of the physical operation terminal based on at least one mark attached to the physical operation terminal;
- generate the display information in which the virtual terminal having a key arrangement customized according to user information of a user wearing the virtual reality display device is displayed at the specified position of the physical operation terminal such that the virtual terminal is superimposed on the physical operation terminal;
- display the generated display information including the virtual terminal superimposed on the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device.
A virtual input method executed by a computer, the method comprising:
- acquiring image data captured by a camera of a virtual reality display device;
- analyzing the image data to detect a physical operation terminal disposed in a real world from the image data;
- specify a position of the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device at which a virtual terminal is to be displayed;
- and
- generating display information in which the virtual terminal having a key arrangement customized according to user information of a user wearing the virtual reality display device is displayed at the specified position of the physical operation terminal such that the virtual terminal is superimposed on the physical operation terminal;
- displaying the generated display information including the virtual terminal superimposed on the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device.
A non-transitory recording medium recording a program for causing a computer to execute processing of:
- acquiring image data captured by a camera of a virtual reality display device;
- analyzing the image data to detect a physical operation terminal disposed in a real world from the image data;
- specify a position of the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device
- generating display information in which the virtual terminal having a key arrangement customized according to user information of a user wearing the virtual reality display device is displayed at the specified position of the physical operation terminal such that the virtual terminal is superimposed on the physical operation terminal;
- displaying the generated display information including the virtual terminal superimposed on the physical operation terminal on the display of the virtual reality display device.
