Abstract
To provide a game controller with which a detection means for detecting an insertion degree of a length can be simplified. A game controller includes a controller body to which is attached a flexible member having formed therein an insertion hole into which a length is inserted, a laser transmitter/receiver that is installed on an outer periphery of the controller body and measures a distance with respect to a base surface of the length by transmission and reception of a wave to detect an insertion degree of the length inserted from the insertion hole, and a wiring cable and a control circuit that output the insertion degree of the length detected by the laser transmitter/receiver.
Claims2
A game controller comprising:
- a controller body to which is attached a flexible member having formed therein an insertion hole into which a length is inserted;
- a detection means configured to be installed on an outer periphery of the controller body and measure a distance with respect to a base surface of the length by transmission and reception of a wave to detect an insertion degree of the length inserted from the insertion hole, the detection means being further configured to be installed on an outer periphery of the controller body away from the insertion hole through which the length is inserted;
- and
- an output means configured to output the insertion degree of the length detected by the detection means,
- wherein the controller body has an attaching member that enables a plurality of flexible members differing in outer dimensions to be attached detachably.
