Method of defining a common frame of reference for a video game system

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of defining a common frame of reference for a video game system. The system comprises at least two remotely-controlled vehicles (1), a first vehicle and a second vehicle, each comprising a video sensor (19), and a reference element (69) with recognizable zones (71). The method comprises the following steps: positioning the first vehicle relative to the reference element (69) in such a manner that the recognizable zones (71) are in the field of view of the video sensor (19) of the first vehicle; processing the image delivered by the video sensor (19) of the positioned first vehicle in order to identify the recognizable zones (71) in the image; deducing the position of the first vehicle relative to the reference element (69) by identifying the recognizable zones (71); and transmitting the position of the first vehicle to the second vehicle.
