Systems for Using three-dimensional object as controller in an Interactive Game

摘要

A system for initiating and using a three-dimensional object as a controlling device when interfacing with a computer system used for interactive video game play is provided. One example system includes an interface for receiving data from a capturing device of a three-dimensional space and storage coupled with computer system. The computer system provides data to a screen and receiving user input to obtain geometric parameters of the three-dimensional object and assign actions to be performed with the three-dimensional object when moved or placed in positions in front of the capture device during interactive video game play. The geometric parameters and the assigned actions being saved to a database on the storage for access during interactive video game play or future interactive sessions.

主权项

1. A system for using a three-dimensional object as a controlling device, comprising:
a camera configured to capture data of a three-dimensional space; a computer system being interfaced with the camera and a display screen; the computer system providing a graphical user interface that is rendered on the display screen, the graphical user interface receiving user input to enable capture via the camera of geometric parameters of the three-dimensional object when presented in the three-dimensional space, wherein the three-dimensional object is assigned to one or more actions to be executed by the computer system when the three-dimensional object is moved or displayed in front of the camera during an interactive session that is executed by the computer system; wherein the three-dimensional object has a shape that is identifiable by the camera; wherein identification of the shape or changes in position of the shape of the three-dimensional object in the three-dimensional space conveys input to the computer system during the interactive session.
