Systems and methods for determining controller functionality based on position, orientation or motion

摘要

Methods and systems for providing input to an interactive program are presented. An interactive system includes a server for executing the interactive program, and a game client interfaced with the server over a network. The game client is configured to send, over the network, position data defining a position of a controller device. The server is configured to define interactive zones, each interactive zone being defined by a spatial region having an associated specified function for an action of the controller device when the controller device is located within that interactive zone. The server is further configured to set the functionality of the action of the controller device to the specified function associated with the interactive zone within which the controller device is located.

1. A system for interfacing with an interactive program, the system comprising:
a server for executing the interactive program; a game client interfaced with the server over a network, the game client configured to send, over said network, position data defining a position of a controller device; wherein the server is configured to define interactive zones, each interactive zone being defined by a spatial region having an associated specified function for an action of the controller device when the controller device is located within that interactive zone; and wherein the server is configured to set the functionality of the action of the controller device to the specified function associated with the interactive zone within which the controller device is located.
