Pointing system, information processing system, method for setting coordinate system, etc., information processing device, and storage medium storing information processing program

摘要

An example pointing system includes an attitude calculation unit, a coordinate system setting unit, and a coordinate calculation unit. The attitude calculation unit calculates an attitude of a controller device in a predetermined space. The coordinate system setting unit sets a predetermined coordinate system in the predetermined space. The coordinate calculation unit calculates pointing coordinates in the coordinate system based on a relationship of the attitude with respect to the coordinate system. The coordinate system setting unit can set a direction of a predetermined axis of the coordinate system with respect to a vertical direction in the predetermined space, and can set the direction of the predetermined axis of the coordinate system with respect to a direction of the controller device in the predetermined space.

1. A pointing system for performing a pointing operation based on an attitude of a controller device, the pointing system comprising:
a computer processing system, including at least one processor, the computer processing system being configured to:
calculate the attitude of the controller device in a predetermined space;set a predetermined coordinate system in the predetermined space; andcalculate pointing coordinates in the coordinate system based on a relationship of the attitude with respect to the coordinate system, wherein:the pointing coordinates are calculated based on a specified direction determined by the attitude of the controller device; anda direction of a predetermined axis of the coordinate system is set with respect to a vertical direction in the predetermined space when the specified direction is closer to a horizontal direction than a predetermined reference, and the direction of the predetermined axis of the coordinate system is set with respect to a predetermined direction of the controller device in the predetermined space when the specified direction is closer to the vertical direction than the predetermined reference.
