Description

Dynamic Selection to tilt function sensitivity
Background
Games system is known, and wherein player's posture is imitated with the animated renderings to the player.As used herein, term " posture " can refer to moving of player or the correspondence of player's animated renderings is moved.The example of these postures comprises moving of all or part of health, and this can comprise moving such as body parts such as hand, arm, head, faces.
In this system, posture is detected by the motion sensor in the remote game input equipment that the player handled usually, and is sent to the games system processor from this remote equipment.The example of such motion sensor comprises gyrostat, magnetometer and accelerometer.The palette of the posture of being supported is subjected to the restriction of the predetermined resolution of motion sensor usually.That is, the sensitivity to posture is subject to the resolution that motion sensor has been set to usually.
For the complete scope of the given pose input of the input equipment that obtains to play, the player need manually change the sensitivity of motion sensor usually.Yet, if the player selects fine sensor (that is, having highly sensitive relatively sensor), and carry out rough posture, this sensor may tend to get stuck.On the contrary,, and carry out meticulous posture if the player selects coarse sensor (that is, having the sensor of relative muting sensitivity), then this fine movement describe often in noise, thicken.In arbitrary scene, possible obliterated data.
Therefore, have that a kind of wherein can dynamically to set resolution from Games Software, make rough and meticulous posture that the games system of maximum efficiency can be arranged be desirable.By Games Software can be assessed and the control resolution requirement, and input equipment can correspondingly be adjusted and respond, can distinguish and describe relative meticulous posture and rough relatively posture with better accuracy and degree of accuracy.
