Motion detection for existing portable devices
Abstract:
Methods and computer programs that allows users to move game objects in a virtual space with movements performed on current and future portable devices. By using existing technologies in such devices, the methods computer movement relative to the devices themselves in order to detect swinging motions, panning motions, moving motions and gesture and then to apply them to game objects and game cameras inside the virtual space. Moving the physical device causes the devices sensors to respond. The methods interpret this data and provide real time updates within a virtual space on the device as well as transmit the updates to another device that is also moving. This enables 2 players to connect to each other and each player is able to move their device and see it reflected within the others virtual space. This eliminates the need of real world references.
