Abstract: In response to the problem of slow data updates caused by a large amount of static data display and neglect of real-time dynamic interaction in visual design, this study developed a framework based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) to address the limitations of static display and promote real-time interaction. In the article, a data acquisition and processing module is constructed, combined with linear regression and Long-Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models, optimised and integrated into a Virtual Reality (VR) system. Multiple interaction methods are designed, and reinforcement learning is introduced to improve prediction performance, data display effectiveness and multi-user synchronisation accuracy. The results showed that the average accuracy of the method reached 93.17%, with response delay, frame rate and update frequency of 6.97 milliseconds, 101 frames per second and 67 hertz, respectively. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of the framework in VR applications.
