The patent application introduces an innovative virtual reality (VR) navigation system enhanced by artificial intelligence (AI) to offer a personalized and context-aware user experience. This system integrates an AI-driven central processing unit (CPU) capable of processing real-time data from various sensors embedded in a wearable VR headset, including inertial measurement units, eye-tracking sensors, and biometric sensors. The AI dynamically adjusts navigation paths and sensory outputs such as visual, audio, and haptic feedback based on user interactions and environmental context.
This invention is situated within the realm of virtual reality systems, focusing on an AI-enhanced intelligent navigation system designed to elevate user experiences in virtual environments. It addresses the limitations of traditional VR navigation methods, which often rely on predefined paths or manual controls that can be cumbersome and lead to user disorientation and dissatisfaction.
Traditional VR navigation has been limited by basic control inputs like joysticks or keyboards, often resulting in a steep learning curve for users unfamiliar with gaming interfaces. As VR environments become more complex, traditional methods struggle to provide precise movement and interaction. Common solutions like teleportation-based locomotion can disrupt immersion, while room-scale tracking is restricted by physical space. Artificial locomotion often leads to motion sickness due to inconsistencies between visual stimuli and physical sensations.
The current VR navigation systems lack personalization and contextual awareness, treating all virtual spaces uniformly without considering user differences or environment complexity. AI offers a solution by enabling dynamic, personalized navigation that adapts in real-time to user preferences and environmental conditions. This approach can simplify navigation for inexperienced users or reduce guidance for those who prefer exploration.
The invention proposes an AI-driven VR navigation system capable of adapting user experiences through dynamic, real-time navigation in 3D environments. It utilizes AI techniques to assess user behavior and environmental factors, continuously adjusting the user's path for optimal engagement. This system aims to enhance VR applications by providing intuitive, audience-relevant, and situation-sensitive navigation without causing motion sickness or disorientation.
