Application: Interactive virtual reality system (Patent ID: US20230326149A1)

The patent filed by Groupon Inc. describes a method, apparatus, and computer program products for generating two three-dimensional interactive environments. The first environment includes virtual interfaces corresponding to items, and upon user engagement, the second environment simulates the items. The interactive device receives environment data, generates the interactive environments, determines virtual interfaces based on inventory data, outputs the environments and interfaces to a display, and stores user engagement data. It also includes communication circuitry for network connections, audio data processing, and the ability to generate a virtual simulation of various experiences or goods based on item data and user feedback.

The interactive device and method allow for the creation of immersive three-dimensional environments with virtual interfaces that users can engage with to access simulations related to various items. By incorporating features such as network connectivity, audio data processing, and user feedback data, the interactive device enhances user experience and provides a platform for interactive and engaging virtual simulations. The patent covers a wide range of functionalities, from generating different environments based on data inputs to storing user engagement data and facilitating shared experiences across multiple interactive devices. Overall, the technology described in the patent aims to provide users with a dynamic and interactive virtual environment that can simulate real-world experiences and goods.
