Abstract:
An information processing method to be executed in a system including a head-mounted display and a sensor configured to detect a motion of the head-mounted display. The information processing method includes defining a virtual space, wherein the virtual space comprises a player character associated with a user, a virtual camera associated with a head of the player character, and a target object. The information processing method further includes identifying virtual space data defining the virtual space. The information processing method further includes detecting a motion of the head-mounted device (HMD) associated with the user. The information processing method further includes moving the virtual camera based on and in accordance with the motion of the HMD head-mounted display. The information processing method further includes identifying a speed of the HMD or the virtual camera. The information processing method further includes assigning and defining an element for applying a condition and an influence relating to collision determination between the player character and the target object based on information on the speed of the head-mounted display. The information processing method further includes identifying a positional relationship between the player character or the virtual camera and the target object. The information processing method further includes executing collision determination between the player character and the target object based on the condition, the assigned element, and a positional relationship between a collision area associated with the head of the player character or the virtual camera and the target object. The information processing method further includes controlling the virtual space in accordance with the collision determination. The information processing method further includes defining a visual field in the virtual space in accordance with the motion of the HMD. The information processing method further includes generating a visual-field image corresponding to the visual field. The information processing method further includes outputting the visual-field image to the HMD. The information processing method further includes generating field-of-view image data based on a field of view of the virtual camera defined based on a motion of the virtual camera, the virtual space data, and the collision determination result. The information processing method further includes displaying a field-of-view image on the head-mounted display based on the field-of-view image data.

Claim (Index 1):
An information processing method, comprising:\n defining a virtual space, wherein the virtual space comprises a player character associated with a user, a virtual camera associated with a head of the player character, and a target object; detecting a motion of a head-mounted device (HMD) associated with the user; moving the virtual camera in accordance with the motion of the HMD; identifying a speed of the HMD or the virtual camera; defining, in accordance with the speed, a condition relating to collision determination between the player character and the target object; identifying a positional relationship between the player character or the virtual camera and the target object; executing collision determination between the player character and the target object based on the condition and the positional relationship; controlling the virtual space in accordance with the collision determination; defining a visual field in the virtual space in accordance with the motion of the HMD; generating a visual-field image corresponding to the visual field; and outputting the visual-field image to the HMD.
