DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING MOVEMENT OF VIRTUAL PLAYER AND VIRTUAL BALL IN GAME APPLICATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide the domain of control devices for virtual games, more specifically a control device for controlling the displacement of a virtual player and of a virtual ball in the scope of a football video game.SOLUTION: The control device is in the form of a ball connected to a pedestal. This ball is equipped with accelerometers (18) capable of detecting a displacement force on the ball as a result of a strike exerted on the ball, pressure sensors (19) capable of detecting a pressure force exerted on the surface of the ball, and a processing module (16). The processor module generates, using information from the accelerometers and pressure sensors, control signals (S1) for controlling the displacement of the virtual ball in the video game and control signals (S2) for controlling the displacement of the virtual player in the video game.
