Abstract:
1. A system for controlling virtual objects in a video game display in a manner responsive to human motions, the system comprising: at least one hand-held motion sensing device generating motion signals in response to the human motions; a processing unit, loaded with a set of motion recognizers created in advance by at least one trained user, receiving the motion signals from the hand-held motion sensing device, and configured to: compute motion recognition signals from some of the motion signals in reference to the motion recognizers; form a training set including some or all of the motion signals; tune one or more of the motion recognizers in the set of motion recognizers with the training set to modify a motion recognition behavior of the one or more tuned motion recognizers; and use the motion recognition signals to control one or more virtual objects in the video game display.
