Microsoft received 1 granted patent in the Game Engines category.
The patent covers a 3D visual editor designed for interactive videos and games. This technology allows creators to edit camera nodes, paths, and effects without requiring deep scripting knowledge.
Microsoft's single game engine patent tackles the accessibility barrier in creating interactive media by reimagining how creators manipulate complex video logic. The system transforms what would traditionally be text-based code into a spatial, three-dimensional graph where camera transitions, visual effects, and scene connections appear as nodes that can be directly manipulated in visual space. This approach opens interactive video production to non-programmers who can now adjust sophisticated behaviors through intuitive visual editing rather than wrestling with scripting syntax.
