OBJECT MOTION WITHIN A VIDEO GAME

AssigneeElectronic Arts Inc.

Issue DateMarch 28, 2023

Illustrative Figure

Abstract

A video game system and method analyze virtual contact between an avatar and a virtual object within a video game. The point of contact of the virtual contact on the virtual object and/or the intensity of contact of the virtual contact may then be used to determine a subsequent virtual action to be performed within the video game. The virtual action, with any virtual movement thereof, may be carried out in a realistic manner within the video game by determining a virtual trajectory of the motion. The virtual trajectory may be determined using a motion model. The motion model may provide the virtual trajectory of the virtual object based at least in part on one or more parameters of the virtual object, such as a weight parameter. The motion model may be trained using training video clips with realistic motion of virtual objects.
