Abstract: Systems and methods include a virtual environment generator to create an interactive virtual environment based on one or more cube maps. The virtual environment generator derives the cube maps from a computer-generated 3D model to correspond to viewpoints in the computer-generated 3D model. The cube maps represent static images and the virtual environment generator further layers various features and virtual items onto the cube maps to create the interactive virtual environment with both static and dynamic portions. One or more mapping locators are generated and layered onto the cube maps. Interactive layers, product models, animation layers, and virtual items, such as virtual characters and environment objects, are layered onto the cube map (e.g., via associations with the mapping locators). Interactions at the interactive layer can cause product information to be displayed. In a friend mode, multiple user devices can simultaneously present and/or interact with the cube map together.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices provide virtual, three-dimensional, interactive environments by using a template user interface which defines multiple customizable parameters. An environment generator engine generates a customizable three-dimensional (3D) virtual environment by rendering a 3D model and applying one or more interactive features defined by the customizable parameters. These interactive features can include avatar features, product model features, game features, and/or environment features Additionally, product models are mapped to one or more virtual surfaces of the 3D model based on the customization parameters. The system also causes the virtual interactive environment to be presented, at a display of a user device, and receives user input(s) controlling the virtual avatar to browse the customizable 3D virtual environment.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices provide virtual, three-dimensional, interactive environments with multiple customization layers. A virtual environment platform provides an environment generator engine for generating a computer-generated three-dimensional (3D) space by rendering 3D model and applying one or more surface customizations to the 3D model. Additionally, product models are mapped to one or more virtual surfaces of the 3D model. An avatar customization engine generates a virtual avatar navigable in the computer-generated 3D space. Moreover, the avatar customization engine defines a first set of customization parameters as mutable and a second set of customization parameters as immutable. The system also causes the virtual interactive environment to be presented, at a display of a user device, and receives user input(s) controlling the virtual avatar and selecting at least one product model of the one or more product models. In response, the system presents data associated with the product model.
