  • Publication number: 20240144628
    Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems for generating three-dimensional (3D) digital objects that can collect data are described. In one embodiment, a system can receive a 3D placeholder in a development platform of a 3D environment, receive an asset into the 3D placeholder, and associate the 3D placeholder with scripts that determine user interaction with the asset or viewability thereof, thereby generating a 3D digital object in the development platform of the 3D environment.

  • Patent number: 11893093
    Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems for verification of a digital asset owner in a digital environment are described. In one embodiment, a system is configured to receive a non-fungible token (NFT) associated with a digital asset, the NFT providing proof of ownership of the digital asset through a cryptographic public key and retrieve the digital asset. The system then retrieves a secret pattern from the digital asset, wherein the secret pattern was previously embedded into the digital asset, the secret pattern associated with the cryptographic public key and computes a first identification hash value using a hash function, the hash function receiving a parameter value derived from the secret pattern. The system then receives a second identification hash value and compares the first identification hash value to the second identification hash value. If the first and second identification hash values are identical, then the digital asset is determined to be authentic.

  • Patent number: 11880954
    Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems for generating three-dimensional (3D) digital smart objects for use in various 3D environments to collect data related to user interaction or viewability with the 3D digital smart object are described. In one embodiment, a system can generate a 3D digital smart object by presenting a 3D placeholder to a publisher or developer of the 3D environment, receive an asset, receive asset data including asset category and asset type associated to the asset and a minimum and maximum asset polygon count value. The system can also receive standard asset size information of the asset including an X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis dimension of the asset, and receive an asset positioning information, including an anchor location and an asset orientation of the asset. The data received can then be stored to generate the 3D digital smart object that can be placed within a 3D environment.

  • Patent number: 11461437
    Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems for verification of a digital asset owner in a digital environment are described. In one embodiment, a system can be configured to receive a digital asset where the digital asset is configured to be displayed in a multi-dimensional environment. Thereafter, the system retrieves a secret pattern within the digital asset and computes a first identification hash value using a hash function. In one embodiment, the hash function receives a parameter value derived from the secret pattern. The system then compares the first identification hash value to a second identification hash value, where the second identification hash value is provided by the owner of the digital asset. The system then determines the digital asset as authentic when the first and second identification hash values are identical.

  • Patent number: 11043022
    Abstract: Using various embodiments, methods and systems to determine viewability metrics of a multidimensional object in a multidimensional digital environment are described. In one embodiment, a system is configured to render a viewport of the multidimensional digital environment displayed on the graphical user interface. The viewport includes the object of interest. The object of interest includes a multidimensional digital object. The object of interest is rendered with a first set of colors. The system is further configured to determine a first number of pixels representing a total number of pixels in the first set of colors and to determine a second number of pixels in the viewport representing a total number of pixels of the viewport. Thereafter, a ratio is calculated by dividing the first number of pixels by the second number of pixels. The metric of viewability is then derived by the calculated ratio.

  • Patent number: 10825256
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a plurality of 3D digital assets that can be associated with scripts to transmit user interaction, when displayed within a 3D environment in a client machine. The system includes a 3D digital asset processing system configured to receive user interaction data related to the 3D digital asset from the client machine and generate metrics related to user interaction with the 3D digital asset. In one embodiment, the metrics are generated by determining whether the 3D digital asset, comprising a collidable mesh, is drawn on a culling mask of a camera, and further using ray casting, drawing a line between the camera and the 3D digital asset. When the line collides with the collidable mesh of the 3D digital asset, using a screen bounding function of a 3D engine of the virtual environment, a proportion of the 3D digital asset on a user interface is determined to obtain a percentage of the user interface that is covered by the 3D digital asset.
