MUMBAI, India, Oct. 24 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202528095106 A) filed by I R Kinetics Limited, Earby, U.K., on Oct. 3, for 'systems and methods for controlling an interactive hybrid environment representing a motorised sporting event at a track.'

Inventor(s) include Gardner, David; and Bradley, Andrew.

The application for the patent was published on Oct. 24, under issue no. 43/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A computer implemented method of controlling an interactive hybrid environment representing a motorised sporting event at a track is described. The interactive hybrid environment includes representations of real and virtual vehicles on the track. The method comprises receiving a stream of real sensor data, the real sensor data comprises: real kinematic data of a real vehicle on the track, the real kinematic data being captured by infra-red sensors at the track, and real control data regarding the control of the real vehicle by a driver, the real control data being captured by vehicle sensors and obtained via telemetry systems from the real vehicle; determining the position and kinematic behaviour of the representation of the real vehicle within the interactive hybrid environment using the real kinematic data; using the real control data and the real kinematic data to create a black box determination of the position of the real vehicle on the track based on the real control data; receiving a stream of computer-generated control data which is obtained by user interaction with a computer presenting the interactive hybrid environment to the user and capturing the user inputs to control kinematic behaviour the representation of the virtual vehicle; and determining the position and kinematic behaviour of the representation of the virtual vehicle within the interactive hybrid environment by using the black box determination and the computer-generated control data."

The patent application was internationally filed on Apr. 26, 2021, under International application No.PCT/GB2021/051008.
