Abstract:
A computer implemented method for using a controller with at least one integrated camera is provided. The method includes identifying fixed points associated with objects disposed in a three-dimensional space using a depth camera that is part of with a controller. The method includes analyzing the identified fixed points captured by the depth camera and determining changes in position of the controller based on changes in position of the fixed points as determined from depth data captured by the depth camera. The method further includes triggering an input command when the controller is determined to in a particular positon based on the determined changes in position.
