Abstract: Image processing technology is provided that makes it possible to easily
judge whether or not lock-on is necessary in games that are deployed
in virtual space defined in three dimensions, such as is suitable for
interactive games. 
     This device comprises an image processing system 200A for subjecting
image data defined in three dimensions to prescribed processing and
obtaining a train of display image data. The decision object that is
to be locked onto is determined by judging whether or not there is
two-dimensional superimposition on the display screen between a cursor
for locking on and a display object (202). Then, a judgment is made
as to whether or not the decision object should be locked onto (203),
and, when this is affirmative, the player selects an action which the
model he or she is manipulating can take (205).

Ce dispositif comprend un élément d'espacement (17) dépassant vers le haut de la surface supérieure de la culasse (11), un goujon (15) vissé dans la culasse (11), ainsi qu'un bras de poussée (14) d'injecteur disposé au-dessus de la culasse (11) et permettant de fixer l'injecteur (13) dans cette dernière (11). Le bras de poussée (14) de l'injecteur comprend une partie exerçant une poussée (14A) qui entre en butée contre l'injecteur (13), une partie de support (14B) qui entre en butée contre le dessus de l'élément d'espacement (17), ainsi qu'une partie de fixation (14C) qui comprend un trou traversant (14a) à travers lequel le goujon (15) est inséré et vissé dans la culasse (11). Lors du fonctionnement, le contact entre la partie de support (14B) du bras de poussée (14) et l'élément d'espacement (17) va former le point de pivot X dudit brase de poussée (14) de l'injecteur. Ce système permet de réduire la distance entre la partie de fixation (14C) et la partie de support (14B), de raccourcir ainsi la longueur totale du brase de poussée (14), et de renforcer la rigidité de ce dernier. Grâce à la position élevée du point de pivot X, il est en outre possible de réduire la probabilité que le bras de poussée de l'injecteur ne bascule vers le bas du côté de la partie de support (14B) lorsque l'on fixe le goujon (15).
