  • the game play control unit 16 preferably includes game play controls and is illustrated in FIG. 1.
  • Game play controls include controls for inputting information related to other aspects of the video game, for example, character movement in space in the video game, also referred to as longitudinal and lateral movement.
  • hat switch 50 and/or a directional switch 51 are preferably used to control the lateral and longitudinal movement of a character in the game. While the hat switch 50 and the directional switch 51 may both be used to control lateral movement, they function in a slightly different manner.
  • the hat switch 50 typically includes four momentary contact switches with a pad mounted over them. Each momentary contact switch is activated when the user presses down on the section of the pad that is over the respective momentary contact switch.
  • the directional switch 51 typically allows input regarding motion in two directions at the same time.
  • the direction switch 51 preferably includes four independent contact switches 51a, 51b, 51c, 5 Id, generally in a diamond shaped configuration. Each of the independent contact switches 5 Ia, 5 Ib, 5 Ic, 5 Id typically is used to provide for movement in a particular direction in the video game.

  • These game play controls may be positioned on a side surface of the hand grip 20 of the control device such that they are easily operated by the thumb of the user as it wraps around the hand grip (See FIG.3).
  • Shoot buttons 56 and 56a may also be considered a game play control.
  • different games may have different game play options, and thus, it is impossible to list all possible game play controls, however, the control device of the present application is intended to be compatible with most every video game.
  • the coordinate control unit 12 of FIG. 1 may be implemented using a gyroscope 40 (see FIG. 3) or other motion sensing devices.
  • the gyroscope 40 may be mounted on or in the control device.
  • a solid state gyroscope may be utilized to determine the pitch and yaw of the control device 10 in the present application.
  • a coordinate activation button 57 shown in FIG. 3, is preferably included in the game play control unit 16.
  • the activation button 57 activates the input of information from the coordinate control unit 12 while depressed. That is, ordinarily the information from the coordinate control unit is not used to control the display of the computer system. In this manner, inadvertent jostling or movement of the control device 10 by the user is not used to alter the point of view of the user in the video.
  • the user depresses the activation button 57 when they wish to change the point of view.
  • this operation is intuitive to the user in that the user depresses a button when he or she desires to change the display of the computer system and otherwise inadvertent movements do not affect the display of the computer screen.
  • the activation button 57 may be used as a kill button, that is, the information from the coordinate control unit 12 is utilized to control the display normally, unless the kill button is depressed. This is slightly less intuitive for a user, however, it sill provides a way for the user to adjust his or her position or grip without affecting the display of the computer system when necessary.
  • the activation button 57 may be a lever type switch positioned on the rear or front of the hand grip 20.
  • a lever type button 58 as shown in FIG. 2, may be included to provide input when pressure is applied.
  • the lever type button 58 may be positioned on the rear of the hand grip 20 such that it can be easily activated by the hand of the user gripping the hand grip.
  • the lever type button may also be positioned on a front side of the hand grip 20 on the lower portion below the trigger 24.
  • the lever type button 58 is preferably utilized as the coordinate activation button 57. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, the button 57 described above may be used to control another function.
  • an LCD mounted to the body of the controller, for use as a primary display of the video game.
  • video data is supplied from the pc or video game console to the LCD mounted to the controller, such that no other monitor is required, whether pc or television screen.
  • the LCD is placed such that the user can easily see the face of the screen when the gun is held in a shooting position.
  • the motion sensor in the controller detects tilt and rotation of the device, and that this movement is used by the video game to determine point of view in the game environment, the resulting affect is that as the player repositions the controller and the viewpoint in the game changes accordingly.
  • the player gets the impression of aiming the controller at the game images displayed on the LCD , such as one would normally sense when they aim a firearm.
  • This embodiment could be correlated to such precision that rotating the controller a given degree would cause a change of viewpoint to the same degree, to the extent that if in the game world, a target is, for example, 20 degrees to the player's left, the player would then need to rotate the controller 20 degrees to the left in order to bring the target into the center of the player's view point.
  • the amount of correlation between real world and game environment could be adjustable.
  • the LCD could be used with multiple conventionally displays, or projected images, or other LCDs mounted on the device. [0025]
  • an LCD embedded within the sighting scope of the controller is used for supplying additional visual data for game play.
  • a small LCD screen is affixed into a sighting scope mounted on the controller, in such a manner that when the scope is held up to eye level and the player looks into the scope, the player is presented with a game image generated from video input from a pc or game console.
  • This image could be a magnified image which has the same point of view normally produced by the game, thereby mimicking the function of a firearm's telescopic sight, or it could be other visual data beneficial to game play.
  • Additional switches could be mounted to the body of the controller, for manipulating the amount of magnification desired.
  • the LCD sight could be used together with conventionally displays, or other projected images, or other LCDs mounted on the device.
  • a video projector is mounted to the controller, for use as the primary display generating component of the video game.
  • video data is supplied from the pc or video game console to the projector mounted to the controller, such that no other monitor is required, whether pc or television screen.
  • the projector is placed such that the user can easily see the projected image when the gun is held in a shooting position.
  • the motion sensor in the controller detects tilt and rotation of the device, and that this movement is used by the video game to determine point of view in the game environment, the resulting affect is that as the player repositions the controller, and the viewpoint in the game changes accordingly, the player gets the impression of aiming the controller at the projected game images, such as one would normally aim a firearm.
  • a curved screen is provided which could partially or fully encompass the game player (to be used in conjunction with a projector mounted on the controller).
  • the curvature would allow the projected image to be displayed anywhere the player aims the controller, the result being that as the player changes the position (tilt and rotation) of the controller, and the projected point of view changes accordingly, the projected game environment will take on the appearance of surrounding the player.
  • the size of the screen could vary, as the distance of the player (at the center of the screen curvature or sphere) from the screen will dictate the size of the projected image.
  • a knee pad mounted switch is provided, which would require the user to place a knee on the ground in order to activate a similar in - game action.
  • a knee pad mounted switch in which a player would have to have the switch make contact with the floor in order to activate the in-game action of crouching.
  • the switch could be behind the player's knee, and bending of the knee could trigger the same game action. Behind the knee based bending could result in an in-game result of incremental crouching, while the knee pad based switch would be in an either on or off state as the player's knee either touches or removes from the floor.
  • the desire to crouch is a function of the realism of the game environment, as crouching in conjunction with manipulating the tilt and rotation of the controller allows for better control of the view point, which translates to better aiming in the game environment.
  • a realistic reloading and chambering of rounds/ammunition from the controller is provided.
  • a realistic reloading mechanism with corresponding input into the video game or simulation could be mounted on or in the controller.
  • a sensor detecting a a sliding chamber, a revolver's loading mechanism, clip removal and reloading, hammer cocking, safety release, pump action for a shot gun, and similar reloading and calibration including automatic/semi-automatic selection of the weapon could be reproduced by a plurality of switches on or in the controller, which their associated actions taking place in the game or simulation.
  • pressing a switch would release a magazine clip from the controller, while at the same time sending that information to the video console, indicating that the player is reloading.
  • a switch would be trigger, sending that information to the video console that the player's weapon has been reloaded.
  • a bolt mechanism might have to been reset by the player, with an integrated switch detecting this action, which would send input that a round has been chambered.
  • the controller could have to be reloaded in the proper sequence to allow the user to successfully use the weapon in the virtual environment. This would have benefits for use of the controller in gun safety or military simulations, as shown in FIG. 7.
