Abstract:
1. A method comprising: computing one or more switching probabilities associated with switching of simulated motion of an entity in a virtual reality environment from a first prescribed motion line to one or more second prescribed motion lines, the one or more switching probabilities being computed using a computing unit; sampling at random over the one or more switching probabilities using the computing unit to select an individual switching probability associated with an individual second prescribed motion line that continues along a course to the left or the right of the first prescribed motion line relative to the simulated motion of the entity, the selected individual switching probability representing a probability of the simulated motion of the entity switching from the first prescribed motion line to the individual second prescribed motion line that continues along the course to the left or to the right of the first prescribed motion line relative to the simulated motion of the entity; and recording data to a system memory representing a switch of the simulated motion of the entity from the first prescribed motion line to the individual second prescribed motion line that continues along the course to the left or the right of the first prescribed motion line relative to the simulated motion of the entity.
