Abstract
The flexible motion system simplifies the process of adding motion-based input to an application. The flexible motion system uses a motion detection device to detect motion based on the movement of an object. Next, the flexible motion system converts the motion detected by the motion detection device into input recognized by the application, and provides this input to the application. The motion may be converted using a grammar specified by an application developer through an updateable action pack.
Claims18
A method of adding motion-based control to an application operating on a platform, the method comprising:
- detecting motion based on the movement of an object received from a motion detecting device;
- mapping the detected motion to control information recognized by an application, wherein the mapping is based on a motion grammar;
- transmitting the control information to the platform on which the application is operating.
