Guided authoring of interactive content
First Claim
1. A content generation system comprising:
- a system processor;
a system memory; and
an interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory;
wherein the system processor is configured to execute the interactive content authoring engine to;
receive data corresponding to an interactive content through an authoring interface of the interactive content authoring engine;
detect at least one of an inconsistency in the interactive content and a possible conflict arising from a user interaction with the interactive content, using at least one of a state of a smart object and a set of affordances of the smart object, wherein the set of affordances are capabilities of the smart object;
identify at least one solution for resolving the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict using a set of causal links between pairs of affordances of the set of affordances and an ordering of affordances of the set of affordances; and
resolve the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict to enable generation of a substantially conflict and inconsistency free interactive content.

Abstract
There are provided systems and methods for guided authoring of interactive content. A content generation system enabling such guided authoring includes a system processor, a system memory, and an interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory. The system processor is configured to execute the interactive content authoring engine to receive data corresponding to an interactive content through an authoring interface of the interactive content authoring engine, and to detect at least one of an inconsistency in the interactive content and a possible conflict arising from a user interaction with the interactive content. The system processor is further configured to to execute the interactive content authoring engine to identify at least one solution for each inconsistency and/or possible conflict, and to resolve the inconsistency or inconsistencies and the possible conflict(s) to enable generation of a substantially conflict and inconsistency free interactive content.

9. A method for use by a content generation system including a system processor and an interactive content authoring engine stored in a system memory, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory, data corresponding to an interactive content through an authoring interface of the interactive content authoring engine; detecting, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory, at least one of an inconsistency in the interactive content and a possible conflict arising from a user interaction with the interactive content, using at least one of a state of a smart object and a set of affordances of the smart object, wherein the set of affordances are advertised capabilities of the smart object; identifying, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory, at least one solution for resolving the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict using a set of causal links between pairs of affordances of the set of affordances and an ordering of affordances of the set of affordances; and resolving, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the system memory, the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict to enable generation of a substantially conflict and inconsistency free interactive content. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A computer-readable non-transitory medium having stored thereon instructions for an interactive content authoring engine, which when executed by a system processor, instantiate a method comprising:
-
receiving, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the computer-readable non-transitory medium, data corresponding to an interactive content through an authoring interface of the interactive content authoring engine; detecting, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the computer-readable non-transitory medium, at least one of an inconsistency in the interactive content and a possible conflict arising from a user interaction with the interactive content, using at least one of a state of a smart object and a set of affordances of the smart object, wherein the set of affordances are advertised capabilities of the smart object; identifying, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the computer-readable non-transitory medium, at least one solution for resolving the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict using a set of causal links between pairs of affordances of the set of affordances and an ordering of affordances of the set of affordances; and resolving, by the system processor executing the interactive content authoring engine stored in the computer-readable non-transitory medium, the at least one of the inconsistency and the possible conflict to enable generation of a substantially conflict and inconsistency free interactive content. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
