Abstract

Methods and systems are described herein for using cryptographic tokens that represent real-world items to enable those items to be used in different virtual worlds (e.g., game worlds). In particular, an object retrieval system may be used to retrieve a cryptographic token that encodes parameter data for an object to be used (e.g., displayed) within a plurality of computing platforms. The object retrieval system may determine (e.g., using a cryptographic signature) that the user is allowed to use the object and may then generate a set of parameters for representing the object with the particular computing platform requesting the object. The object retrieval system may then transmit the parameters to the requesting platform. The object retrieval system may perform the same operations for requests from other platforms, such that the object retrieval system may uniquely encode the parameters for the particular platforms.

Dependent claims

A system for providing parameter retrieval for multiple computing platforms, the system comprising:

one or more processors;
and
a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions, which when executed by the one or more processors cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
receiving, from a first computing platform, a first retrieval request comprising (1) a token identifier of a cryptographic token that encodes parameter data for an object to be displayed within each of a plurality of computing platforms, (2) an application identifier of a cryptography-based storage application, and (3) a first cryptographic signature generated by the cryptography-based storage application;
determining, using the first cryptographic signature and the token identifier, that the cryptography-based storage application controls the cryptographic token;
generating, based on the parameter data, a first set of platform parameters for the object corresponding to the first computing platform, wherein the first set of platform parameters is unique to the first computing platform, and wherein the first set of platform parameters is used by the first computing platform to render the object on the first computing platform;
receiving, from a second computing platform, a second retrieval request comprising (1) the token identifier, (2) the application identifier, and (3) a second cryptographic signature generated by the cryptography-based storage application;
determining, using the second cryptographic signature and the token identifier, that the cryptography-based storage application controls the cryptographic token;
generating, based on the parameter data, a second set of platform parameters for the object corresponding to the second computing platform, wherein the second set of platform parameters is unique to the second computing platform, and wherein the second set of platform parameters is used by the second computing platform to render the object on the second computing platform;
and
transmitting the first set of platform parameters to the first computing platform and the second set of platform parameters to the second computing platform.
