Abstract

According to one aspect of the present disclosure, a virtual reality control system includes at least one controller configured to control at least one of the first display and the second display, the controller is configured to acquire first position data related to the first user and second position data related to the second user, and output an image including a first area and a second area to the first display on the basis of the first position data, if the first user has a first authority, the second user has a second authority and the first authority is a higher authority than the second authority, the first image is output to the first display when the first position data is located in the first area, and a notification image is output to the second display when the second position data is located in the first area.

Claims (20)

1. A virtual reality control system comprising:

a sensor configured to emit and receive light on and from a target object and detect a light signal;

a first display configured to output a first image to a first user;

a second display configured to output a second image to a second user; and

at least one controller configured to control at least one of the first display and the second display,

wherein the controller is configured to acquire first position data related to the first user and second position data related to the second user based on the light signal, and

output an image including a first area and a second area to the first display based on the first position data,

wherein the controller assigns a first authority to the first user and a second authority to the second user when the first user is located in the first area prior to the second user,

wherein the first authority is a higher authority than the second authority,

wherein the first image is output to the first display when the first positon data is located in the first area, and a notification image is output to the second display when the second positon data is located in the first area,

wherein the controller checks with the first user whether to transfer the first authority to the second user when the second user having the second authority is located in the first area without moving for a predetermined period,

wherein the controller controls the first display to display a moving path of the first user toward a destination and the second display to display a moving path of the second user toward a destination,

wherein the controller controls the second display to display the moving path of the second user after movement of the first user is completed,

wherein the controller controls the second display to change a color of the moving path of the second user when the first user is located adjacent the moving path of the second user,

wherein evaluation is performed with a different evaluation item according to the first authority and the second authority.

2. The virtual reality control system of claim 1 , wherein the notification image is not an image that corresponds to a field of view of the second user.

3. The virtual reality control system of claim 1 , wherein if the second user has the first authority transferred by the first user, an image that corresponds to a field of view of the second user is output to the second display when the second position data is located in the first area.

4. The virtual reality control system of claim 1 , wherein the first authority and the second authority are preset authorities.

5. The virtual reality control system of claim 1 , wherein a simulation is executed with a different scenario according to the first authority and the second authority.

6. The virtual reality control system of claim 1 , wherein the second display and the moving path of the second user is not the shortest distance.
