METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING PERFORMANCE OF A GAMER

摘要

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a method for detecting a plurality of stimulus signals generated by a gaming accessory device, identifying a plurality of substitute gaming stimulations associated with the plurality of stimulus signals, substituting the plurality of stimulus signals with the plurality of substitute gaming stimulations, incorporating in each of the plurality of substitute gaming stimulations a first unique identifier to generate a plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations, transmitting the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations to a computing device executing a gaming application, and receiving from the computing device a plurality of game action results, where each of the plurality of gaming action results comprises the first unique identifier of a corresponding one of the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
detecting, by an accessory management software (AMS) application executed by a computing device including a processor, a plurality of stimulus signals generated by a gaming accessory device; identifying, by the AMS application, a plurality of substitute gaming stimulations associated with the plurality of stimulus signals; substituting, by the AMS application, the plurality of stimulus signals with the plurality of substitute gaming stimulations; adding, by the AMS application, to each of the plurality of substitute gaming stimulations a first unique identifier to generate a plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations, wherein the first unique identifier comprises a code that uniquely identifies each of the plurality of substitute gaming stimulations; transmitting, by the AMS application, the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations to the computing device executing a gaming application, wherein the code that uniquely identifies each of the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations enables tracking of a plurality of gaming action results generated by the gaming application responsive to the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations transmitted to the computing device; and receiving, by the AMS application from the computing device, the plurality of game action results, wherein each of the plurality of gaming action results comprises the first unique identifier of a corresponding one of the plurality of updated substitute gaming stimulations.
