First Claim
Patent Images
1. An apparatus for processing a virtual world to enable interoperability between the virtual world and a real world or interoperability between virtual worlds, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to;
receive sensed information collected by a sensor from the real world; and
adapt the sensed information, based on sensor capability related to the sensor,wherein the sensed information comprises;
group ID information that identifies an individual identity of a multi-sensor structure to which the sensor belongs,sensor ID reference information that identifies the sensor,linked list that denotes information on link data for grouping a plurality of sensors, andpriority information of another sensed information sharing a same point at an adapting time of the sensed information, andwherein the sensor capability comprises;
a maximum value and a minimum value of a parameter pertaining to the sensor,a number of levels measurable by the sensor, between the maximum value and the minimum value,a sensitivity representing a minimum limit of an input signal for generating an output signal, andan accuracy representing a degree of closeness of a measured quantity with respect to an actual value.

Abstract
A virtual world processing apparatus and method. Sensed information, which is information collected by a sensor is inputted. The sensed information is adapted, based on a sensor capability, which is information on capability of the sensor. Accordingly, interoperability between a real world and a virtual world or interoperability between virtual worlds may be achieved.
