Systems and methods for generating and presenting virtual experiences
Various embodiments facilitate the creation and presentation of a virtual experience. In one embodiment, the virtual experience is assembled from user model data corresponding to a three-dimensional representation of a user, user movement data corresponding to at least one movement characteristic of the user, user voice data corresponding to at least one vocal characteristic of the user, environment data corresponding to a three-dimensional representation of a location, and event data corresponding to a captured event at the location. The virtual experience is a virtual recreation of the captured event at the location, with the three-dimensional representation of the user, the vocal characteristic of the user, and the movement characteristic of the user inserted into the captured event.
1. A method comprising:
retrieving event data of a captured event at a location and user data of a three-dimensional (3D) representation of a user;
generating, based on the event data and the user data, a virtual re-creation of the captured event for the user to virtually experience by:
replacing a 3D representation of a person represented within the captured event with the 3D representation of the user;
replacing the location with a user-selected virtual environment; and
generating a 3D representation that includes the 3D representation of the user in the user-selected virtual environment; and
displaying the virtual re-creation to the user in a point of view of the person, wherein the point of view of the person displays the 3D representation of the user in place of the 3D representation of the person within the user-selected virtual environment.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
retrieving environment data corresponding to a 3D representation of the location of the captured event.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
capturing user voice data corresponding to at least one vocal characteristic of the user and user movement data corresponding to at least one movement characteristic of the user.
4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
replacing a vocal characteristic of the person with a vocal characteristic of the user.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
inserting virtual merchandise into the virtual re-creation, wherein the virtual merchandise replaces physical merchandise present at the captured event.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
storing the virtual re-creation with the 3D representation of the user and the user-selected virtual environment as an event.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
capturing the user data, the event data, and environment data for the virtual re-creation.
8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
retrieving event data of a captured event at a location and user data of a three-dimensional (3D) representation of a user;
generating, based on the event data and the user data, a virtual re-creation of the captured event for the user to virtually experience by:
replacing a 3D representation of a person represented within the captured event with the 3D representation of the user;
replacing the location with a user-selected virtual environment; and
generating a 3D representation that includes the 3D representation of the user in the user-selected virtual environment; and
displaying the virtual re-creation to the user in a point of view of the person, wherein the point of view of the person displays the 3D representation of the user in place of the 3D representation of the person within the user-selected virtual environment.
9. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
retrieving environment data corresponding to a 3D representation of the location of the captured event.
10. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
capturing user voice data corresponding to at least one vocal characteristic of the user and user movement data corresponding to at least one movement characteristic of the user.
11. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
replacing a vocal characteristic of the person with a vocal characteristic of the user.
12. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
inserting virtual merchandise into the virtual re-creation, wherein the virtual merchandise replaces physical merchandise present at the captured event.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
storing the virtual re-creation with the 3D representation of the user and the user-selected virtual environment as an event.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 8 , wherein the operations further comprise:
capturing the user data, the event data, and environment data for the virtual re-creation.
15. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more memories storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to perform a process comprising:
retrieving event data of a captured event at a location and user data of a three-dimensional (3D) representation of a user;
generating, based on the event data and the user data, a virtual re-creation of the captured event for the user to virtually experience by:
replacing a 3D representation of a person represented within the captured event with the 3D representation of the user;
replacing the location with a user-selected virtual environment; and
generating a 3D representation that includes the 3D representation of the user in the user-selected virtual environment; and
displaying the virtual re-creation to the user in a point of view of the person, wherein the point of view of the person displays the 3D representation of the user in place of the 3D representation of the person within the user-selected virtual environment.
16. The system according to claim 15 , wherein the process further comprises:
retrieving environment data corresponding to a 3D representation of the location of the captured event.
17. The system according to claim 15 , wherein the process further comprises:
capturing user voice data corresponding to at least one vocal characteristic of the user and user movement data corresponding to at least one movement characteristic of the user.
18. The system according to claim 15 , wherein the process further comprises:
replacing a vocal characteristic of the person with a vocal characteristic of the user.
19. The system according to claim 15 , wherein the process further comprises:
inserting virtual merchandise into the virtual re-creation, wherein the virtual merchandise replaces physical merchandise present at the captured event.
20. The system according to claim 15 , wherein the process further comprises:
storing the virtual re-creation with the 3D representation of the user and the user-selected virtual environment as an event.
