step S102, acquiring that a virtual character controlled by a player in a game receives an attack;

step S104, obtaining the damage value received by the virtual character under the attack;

as an optional implementation manner, whether the virtual character dies under the attack may also be obtained, if the virtual character dies, the maximum current intensity value capable of being generated by each electrode is obtained, and the maximum current intensity value of each electrode is used to generate the current for each electrode.

Wherein, as a preferred embodiment, the current intensity of each electrode comprises ten levels by default, and the player can test the maximum tolerable current intensity level at different positions of the body before playing the game and set the maximum tolerable intensity level of the electrode at the position as the maximum tolerable intensity of the player. For example, when the player can set the electrodes on the arm, the player finds through tests that the level that can be borne on the arm is six (the first level is lightest in current intensity, and the ten level is heaviest in current intensity), and the level that can be borne by the electrodes on the forehead of the player is five, at this time, the player can set the maximum intensity levels of the electrodes corresponding to different parts as the maximum intensities that can be borne by the player.

As another preferred embodiment, the player may also configure the position of the body to which each electrode is attached via software provided by the VR utility.

Step S106, converting the damage value into a current intensity value;

as an optional embodiment, in the first mode, a percentage of the injury value to the maximum injury value that the virtual character can bear is obtained, a maximum current value corresponding to the maximum intensity level that the player configures to be able to bear by himself is obtained, and a product of the percentage and the maximum current value is used as the current intensity value in the step S106.

As another optional embodiment, in the second mode, the remaining tolerable damage value of the virtual character before the virtual character receives the attack is obtained, after the attack is received, the percentage of the damage value received by the attack to the remaining tolerable damage value is calculated, the maximum current value corresponding to the maximum intensity level that the player configures for himself/herself is obtained, and the product of the percentage and the maximum current value is used as the current intensity value in the step S106.

The two different ways of converting the damage value into the current strength value are adopted, and the method can be flexibly selected in practical application. In the two methods, the method two processing method generates more current values, and the player feels more obvious at the moment. Both of the two modes can be configured in the VR device, the type of the game is acquired when the game is running, if the type of the game is a first type of game, the first mode is used, and if the type of the game is a second type of game, the second mode is used.
