Publication number: 20230115736Abstract: An interactive environment image may be displayed in a virtual environment space, and interaction with the interactive environment image may be detected within a three-dimensional space that corresponds to the virtual environment space. The interactive environment image may be a three-dimensional image, or it may be two-dimensional. An image is displayed to provide a visual representation of an interactive environment image including one or more virtual objects, which may be spatially positioned. User interaction with the visualized representation in the virtual environment space may be detected and, in response to user interaction, the interactive environment image may be changed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2022Publication date: April 13, 2023Inventors: Mark L. Davis, Timothy Alan Tabor, Roger H. Hoole, Jeffrey Taylor, John M. Black

Patent number: 8808089Abstract: The projection of an interactive game environment image on one or more surfaces. The interactive game environment image may be a three dimensional image, or may be two dimensional. Data is received that represents virtual objects that are spatially positioned in virtual space. An image is then projected on the substantially horizontal surface that includes a visual representation of all or a portion of the virtual space including one or more of the virtual objects. The system may then detect user interaction with the projected visualized representation of the virtual space, and in response thereto, change the projected visualized representation.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2012Date of Patent: August 19, 2014Assignee: MEP Tech, Inc.Inventors: Mark L.
