Abstract
A system and method for managing a persistent digital avatar and its associated assets across multiple 3D rendering platforms is disclosed. In a further aspect, a governance framework maintains identity persistence and policy inheritance for such assets, particularly when they are recreated from indirect evidence. The framework uses a verifiable Derived-Asset Receipt to cryptographically bind an output asset to its evidence, reconstruction pipeline, and a governing policy anchor. Enforcement points within a destination pipeline, such as a game engine or marketplace, gate acceptance of the asset based on verification of the receipt, thereby preventing the use of non-compliant or unauthorized assets.
Claims13
A computer-implemented method for governing portable digital assets, the method comprising:
- (a) at a destination content pipeline, receiving a candidate target digital asset for inclusion in a 3D rendering platform, wherein the candidate target digital asset is a component of a persistent digital avatar;
- (b) obtaining a similarity contract that specifies at least a derived classification zone and a machine-enforceable policy requirement for assets classified therein;
- (c) verifying a derived-asset receipt associated with the candidate target digital asset, the receipt providing a cryptographic binding between at least an evidence commitment, a pipeline identity commitment, and a policy anchor;
- and
- (d) gating acceptance of the candidate target digital asset into the 3D rendering platform based on the verifying.
A system for managing and governing portable digital avatars, the system comprising:
- one or more processors and non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the system to:
- (a) operate a content database configured to store a 3D model of a persistent avatar and one or more associated assets;
- (b) operate a content delivery module configured to deliver the 3D model and its associated assets to a plurality of 3D rendering platforms via an Application Programming Interface (API);
- and
- (c) operate an enforcement point integrated into at least one of the plurality of 3D rendering platforms, the enforcement point configured to:
- (i) verify a derived-asset receipt associated with at least one of the associated assets;
- and
- (ii) block deployment or activation of the at least one associated asset in a regulated zone absent a valid derived asset receipt.
A computer-implemented method performed by a generation service for issuing verifiable continuity for reconstructed digital assets, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving indirect evidence derived from a source digital asset;
- (b) generating an output digital asset using a reconstruction pipeline characterized by a pipeline identity commitment;
- (c) evaluating similarity under a similarity contract to determine a derived classification and a policy anchor;
- (d) generating a derived-asset receipt binding at least an evidence commitment for the indirect evidence, the pipeline identity commitment, an output commitment for the output digital asset, and the policy anchor;
- and
- (e) delivering the output digital asset with the derived-asset receipt to a destination configured to deny acceptance of the output digital asset absent a valid derived-asset receipt.
A computer-implemented method performed by a marketplace system for governing a listing of reconstructed digital assets, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving a listing request for a candidate target digital asset, wherein the asset is a component of a persistent digital avatar;
- (b) obtaining a similarity contract applicable to the listing request;
- (c) verifying a derived-asset receipt associated with the candidate target digital asset, the receipt binding at least an evidence commitment and a policy anchor;
- (d) gating listing approval based on the verifying;
- and
- (e) when a derived classification of the asset indicates a regulated zone, enforcing a machine-enforceable policy object referenced by the policy anchor to control at least one of listing visibility, monetization enablement, or settlement routing.
