Abstract
Provided are a server and method for providing three-dimensional (3D) video content and a device for playing video content. A 3D video content service server includes a server communication module, a server memory, and a server processor. When user interaction editing information for 3D video content is input, the server processor edits a user interaction for the 3D video content according to the user interaction editing information and generates and stores metadata for the edited user interaction.
Claims18
A server for providing a three-dimensional (3D) video content service, the server comprising:
- a server communication module;
- a server memory;
- and
- a server processor connected to the server communication module and the server memory,
- wherein, when user interaction editing information for 3D video content is input, the server processor edits a user interaction for the 3D video content according to the user interaction editing information and generates and stores metadata for the edited user interaction.
A device for playing video content, the device comprising:
- a communication module;
- a memory;
- a motion recognition module;
- and
- a processor connected to the communication module, the memory, and the motion recognition module,
- wherein the processor receives three-dimensional (3D) video content from a 3D video content service server through the communication module and plays the 3D video content according to a 3D video content play request, when a user interaction is recognized by the motion recognition module while the 3D video content is played, determines whether the recognized user interaction is appropriate, and when the recognized user interaction is appropriate, plays 3D video content corresponding to the recognized user interaction.
A method of providing a three-dimensional (3D) video content service according to a user interaction, the method comprising:
- providing, by a 3D video content service server, a web-based interactive 3D video content play environment on a video content play device;
- transmitting, by the 3D video content service server, 3D video content information of 3D video content requested by the video content play device to the video content play device;
- playing, by the video content play device, the 3D video content;
- when the played 3D video content requires a user interaction, transmitting, by the 3D video content service server, a user interaction guide message to the video content play device;
- and
- when a user interaction is recognized, playing, by the video content play device, 3D video content corresponding to the recognized user interaction.
