Publication number: 20250005876Abstract: A virtual space control system sets a virtual space in a first virtual space, and expresses an embodiment space embodying a second virtual space in the virtual space. Virtual objects embodying embodiment target objects in the second virtual space are disposed in the virtual space. A disposition configuration of the virtual objects in the first virtual space is aligned with a disposition configuration of the embodiment target objects in the second virtual space, which are associated with the virtual objects. captured images serving as sources of embodiment images that undergo texture mapping onto the virtual objects are generated in a sub-server system. The embodiment images are created by causing the captured images to undergo calculation amount reduction processing.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2024Publication date: January 2, 2025Applicant: BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT INC.Inventors: Takayoshi OI, Koji ASUNA, Kiyoshi MINAMI, Kenichi OGURA, Akio ONDA, Takashi AOKI, Shintaro MURAI

Publication number: 20250001291Abstract: A portal server system manages a plurality of cyberspaces in which users can participate. Each cyberspace is associated with a participation disallowance condition including at least a condition that participation exceeding a given allowable number of participants is not allowed. The portal server system includes a participation possibility determination section that determines whether a user can participate in a cyberspace based on the participation disallowance condition associated with the cyberspace, and a participation allowed state setting section that, when a given specific user participating in a first cyberspace among the cyberspaces leaves the first cyberspace, sets the specific user to a participation allowed state in which the participation possibility determination section allows the specific user to participate in the first cyberspace.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2024Publication date: January 2, 2025Applicant: BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT INC.Inventors: Takayoshi Oi, Koji Asuna, Kiyoshi Minami, Kenichi Ogura, Akio Onda, Takashi Aoki, Shintaro Murai

Publication number: 20250001293Abstract: A computer system controls in parallel multiple virtual spaces that are set so as to have a common world view and that enables users to change their participation virtual spaces, manages occurrence incidents, which are incidents that occur or probably occur in each virtual space, and manages a target user's participation record for the first virtual space. Moreover, the computer system manages a restriction on target user's participation in a virtual space other than the first virtual space, based on (a) the difference between the first occurrence incident, which is an occurrence incident in the first virtual space, and an occurrence incident in the virtual space other than the first virtual space, and (b) the target user's participation record for the first virtual space.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 16, 2024Publication date: January 2, 2025Applicant: BANDAI NAMCO ENTERTAINMENT INC.Inventors: Takayoshi OI, Koji ASUNA, Kiyoshi MINAMI, Kenichi OGURA, Akio ONDA, Takashi AOKI, Shintaro MURAI

Patent number: 9352211Abstract: The present invention provides a glove comprises a main body adapted to receive a wearer's hand and a wrist cuff suspended over the main body. The main body further comprises a plurality of finger parts and a back hand part. The back hand part comprises a first protective panel hingedly connected at one end to the main body so that the first protective panel is suspend over the main body and slidably overlapped with a second protective panel. As the first protective panel slides over the second protective panel following the bending action of the fingers, a coordinated movement of the hand can be achieved. The second protective panel is also hingedly connected to the main body suspended over the main body and the wrist cuff, which allows for more coordinated rotating movement of the hand and the wrist following the bending action of the fingers.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2014Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Assignee: Warrior Sports, Inc.Inventors: Akio Aoki, Jocelyn Ventocilla

Patent number: 8574479Abstract: In an imprinting method for transferring a pattern of a mold to a resin coated on a substrate by using an imprinting apparatus including a mold holding unit and a resin coating unit, the resin is coated in n shot areas arranged in a direction parallel to a direction in which the holding unit and the coating unit are arranged where n is an integer equal to or greater than 2, and the pattern is transferred to the shot areas on a one-by-one basis. A distance D between the coating unit and the mold and a width W of each shot area as seen in the direction parallel to the direction in which the holding unit and the coating unit are arranged are selected so as to satisfy a condition D>(3/2?1/n)W, and the coating and the transferring are performed repeatedly on the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2010Date of Patent: November 5, 2013Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Akio Aoki, Hiroshi Inada
