Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of virtual reality (VR), and in particular, to a system and method for changing an overall style of a public area based on a virtual scene.


BACKGROUND

At present, many real-time rendering platforms in the field of architecture mainly provide roaming experience. It is not possible to change the overall style of existing architectural design and record related information to evaluate and further improve the design. Consequently, the design on the platforms can only be viewed without further effect.


Chinese patent CN111079222A (application number: CN201911361755.3) discloses a VR-based virtual architecture system, including an unreal engine. An output end of the unreal engine is electrically connected to an input end of the virtual architecture system through a wire. The virtual architecture system includes a change module, an operation interface library, and a data acquisition module. An output end of the data acquisition module is electrically connected to an input end of a display module through a wire. The input end of the display module is electrically connected to an output end of a multimedia playing module through a wire. Although the patent can provide a real-life architectural experience through a real-time rendering platform based on VR, the patent remains only at the appreciation stage and cannot help with architectural design, especially overall interior style design.
