ENHANCED VISIBILITY OF AVATARS SATISFYING A PROFILE
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for decorating visible attributes of a rendered avatar, the method comprising:
- collecting a first user profile of a first avatar, the first user profile having at least one interest of a user;
receiving a location of the first avatar, wherein the location is associated with a view to at least one second avatar;
identifying the at least one second avatar among a group of avatars visible with respect to the first avatar;
reading a target profile of the second avatar;
determining whether the second user profile satisfies a criterion based on the first user profile and the target profile; and
responsive to the determination that the target profile satisfies the criterion, rendering a modified rendered avatar to a client.

Abstract
Disclosed is a computer implemented method, computer program product, and apparatus to decorate visible attributes of a rendered avatar. A server may collect a first user profile of a first avatar, the first user profile having at least one interest of a user. Next, the server may receive a location of the first avatar, wherein the location is associated with a view to at least a second avatar. The server can identify the second avatar among a group of avatars visible with respect to the first avatar. Further, the server may read a target profile of the second avatar then determine whether the second user profile satisfies a criterion based on the first user profile and the target profile. In addition, the server may render a modified rendered avatar to a client, responsive to the determination that the target profile satisfies the criterion.

15. A data processing system comprising:
-
a bus; a storage device connected to the bus, wherein computer usable code is located in the storage device; a communication unit connected to the bus; and a processing unit connected to the bus, wherein the processing unit executes the computer usable code to decorate visible attributes of a rendered avatar, wherein the processing unit executes the computer usable program code to collect a first user profile of a first avatar, the first user profile having at least one interest of a user;
receive a location of the first avatar, wherein the location is associated with a view to at least one second avatar;
identify the at least one second avatar among a group of avatars visible with respect to the first avatar;
read a target profile of the second avatar;
determine whether the second user profile satisfies a criterion based on the first user profile and the target profile; and
render a modified rendered avatar to a client, responsive to the determination that the target profile satisfies the criterion. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
