DETECTING AND PREVENTING FALSE POSITIVES

摘要

Detection and prevention of false positives associated with a handheld controller are provided. Information is stored in memory regarding indicia of false positive input associated with a handheld controller used to control media usage. Sensor information is monitored at the handheld controller. It may be detected that the monitored sensor information matches one or more indicia of false positive input. Subsequent input received from the handheld controller may then be nullified, such that the nullified input is not registered and does not result in control changes to the associated media. It may then be detected that the monitored sensor information no longer matches one or more indicia of false positive input. Subsequently, nullification is ended, and subsequent input received from the handheld game controller is registered normally and results in control changes to the associated media.

主权项

1. A method for detecting and preventing false positives in a handheld controller, the method comprising:
storing information in memory regarding indicia of false positive input associated with a handheld controller used to control media usage; monitoring sensor information at a handheld controller; detecting that the monitored sensor information matches one or more indicia of false positive input; nullifying subsequent input received from the handheld controller, wherein the nullified input is not registered and does not result in control changes to the associated media; detecting that the monitored sensor information no longer matches one or more indicia of false positive input; and ending nullification, wherein subsequent input received from the handheld game controller is registered and results in control changes to the associated media.
