DYNAMIC CELL MANAGING METHOD IN THREE-DIMENSIONAL SHARING VIRTUAL SPACE COMMUNICATION SERVICE, AND THREE- DIMENSIONAL SHARING VIRTUAL SPACE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a means for allowing a user to freely produce and share a three-dimensional virtual space without performing previous registration to a server in a three-dimensional virtual space communication system.;SOLUTION: A master server 10 divides a three-dimensional virtual space to a plurality of cells, logical regions, and the respective cells are provided with names (cell addresses) and managed. A cell server 11 is provided corresponding to each cell, and each cell server 11 handles information of video and voice of the avators of users in cells by charged cells. Thus, when a user terminal specifies an alias name, namely another name for a cell address or a cell, and logs on, the corresponding cell server 11 supplies a three-dimensional virtual space field to the user terminal based on a defining information of the user closed within the cell charged by the cell server 11.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2002,JPO
