Aspects described herein relate to translation of physiological properties of a user's body to digital properties of a virtual object. The proposed technology also relates to a method and device for handling the translation. According to one aspect, the disclosure relates to a method, performed in an electronic device including communication circuitry and processing circuitry for translating the properties. The method includes the steps of receiving information representing physiological properties of the user's body, the information being collected using at least one sensor, calculating digital properties associated with a virtual object, wherein the virtual object is a virtual representation of the user, based on the physiological properties of the user's body and providing the digital properties to the virtual object in a virtual environment. Aspects described herein further relate to an electronic device for implementing the method and a corresponding computer program.
