  • Patent number: 10304234
    Abstract: A system for rendering a virtual environment includes a hardware processor, a memory, and a simulation generator software code stored in the memory. The hardware processor is configured to execute the simulation generator software code to receive a three-dimensional-representation (3D-representation) of a physical object, and to receive a two-dimensional-image (2D-image) of the physical object. The hardware processor is also configured to execute the simulation generator software code to compose a simulation of the virtual environment using the 3D-representation and the 2D-image, in which the 3D-representation of the physical object is situated between the 2D-image of the physical object and a predetermined viewpoint of the virtual environment. The hardware processor further executes the simulation generator software code to render the virtual environment such that the 2D-image of the physical object, but not the 3D-representation of the physical object, is visibly rendered.

  • Patent number: 9710156
    Abstract: There are provided systems and methods for three-dimensional object sculpting and deformation on a mobile device. The system including a display, a memory storing a sculpting software application, and a processor configured to execute the sculpting software application to present an object to the user on the display, receive a first user input from the user for deforming the object, deform the object based on the first user input to generate a deformed object, receive a second user input from the user for squishing the deformed object using a squishing machine, and re-present the deformed object on the display next to the squishing machine. Squishing the deformed object may include breaking the deformed object in a blending machine, melting the deformed object with a heating machine, blowing the deformed object up with a pump, or breaking the deformed object up within a bubble.
