MUMBAI, India, Oct. 11 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517091609 A) filed by Interdigital Ce Patent Holdings, Sas, Paris, on Sept. 24, for 'avatar metadata representation.'

Inventor(s) include Cova Regateiro, Joao Pedro; Avril, Quentin; and Guillotel, Philippe.

The application for the patent was published on Oct. 10, under issue no. 41/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "In one implementation, additional metadata is proposed to normalize social interactivity between computer generated 3D models in a virtual environment, such as dynamic objects or static objects. For example, "Metadata", "Geometry", "Visual" and "Add-ons" are used to characterize the avatar. In particular, "Metadata" can indicate the identity, vital space, disability, capability, personality and emotion of the avatar; "Geometry" refers to the full body shape and semantics; "Visual" provides descriptions of the texture map, materials used for rendering the avatar, overlay and the depth of detail of the appearance of the avatar; and "Add- ons" can specify the clothes and accessories of the avatar. To generate realistic content in 3D application, an engine will process all dynamic (sensors input data) and static data (user metadata input and scene description) and generate a unique user avatar reconstruction and animation."

The patent application was internationally filed on Mar. 18, 2024, under International application No.PCT/EP2024/057130.
