  • Patent number: 11631229
    Abstract: The present disclosure illustrates systems and methods for automatically adjusting a following 3D asset based on a deformation of a related base 3D asset. The systems and methods may use geomaps to index the relationship between the following 3D asset and base 3D asset. By automatically adjusting a following 3D asset based on the base 3D asset, the following 3D asset may retain full functionality.

  • Patent number: 11494980
    Abstract: A system for generating a nearest neighboring vertices index. The system includes a memory and one or more processors. The one or more processors receive a base figure asset and an item asset, determine nearest neighbor vertices between the base figure asset and the item asset using at least one of a k-dimensional tree algorithm and a geodesic algorithm, and generate the nearest neighboring vertices index based on the determined nearest neighbor vertices between the base figure asset and the item asset.

  • Patent number: 11423601
    Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) content refactoring system may maintain the external look and behavior of a donor model, while changing the underlying data to conform the donor model to content standards of a modeling application. The 3D content refactoring system may make the donor model adhere to the content standards by mapping the donor model to a target model that is already formatted for the modeling application.

  • Patent number: 10878627
    Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering 3D assets associated and/or configured as stacked meshes are disclosed. Stacking meshes can include loading the first mesh and the second mesh from a character definition, identifying a lowest depth mesh from the first mesh and the second mesh, identifying shared polygons from the first mesh and the second mesh, and hiding the shared polygons of the lowest depth mesh.

  • Patent number: 10769860
    Abstract: A system for switching a 3D asset between art styles, including a user interface to receive an art style selection, and a 3D character software development kit (SDK) engine. The 3D character SDK engine receives a selected art style from the user interface, determines identifying characteristics of the 3D asset, removes the identifying characteristics from the 3D asset to return the 3D asset to a base figure, receives style deformations based on the selected art style, applies the style deformations to the base figure to form a new 3D asset based on the selected style, and applies the identifying characteristics to the new 3D asset based on the selected style.

  • Patent number: 10733780
    Abstract: Systems and methods for generating and porting a persistent virtual identity. Generating and porting a persistent virtual identity can include processing a 3D asset received from a source application, determining a plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset, comparing the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset with a plurality of standards enforced by a destination application, configuring the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset to correspond with the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset do not conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application, and transferring the 3D asset to the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application.
