Abstract
A computer program, method, and system for cross-platform input data unification. According to some embodiments, a first input data is received from a first input device connected to a first platform. The input data is converted to a standard action. The standard action is transmitted to a second platform capable of determining a relationship between the standard action and a second input device associated with the second platform. The second platform can use the input data to trigger an action associated with the standard action in the application or gaming environment.
Claims20
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium with an executable program stored thereon for cross-platform input data unification, wherein the program instructs a processing element to perform the following steps:
- receiving first input data from a first input device connected to a first platform;
- converting the first input data to a standard action;
- transmitting the standard action to a second platform, wherein the standard action is related to second input data from a second input device connected to the second platform.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium with an executable program stored thereon for cross-platform input data unification, wherein the program instructs a processing element to perform the following steps:
- receiving a standard action from a first platform, wherein the standard action is related to a first input data from a first input device connected to the first platform;
- converting the standard action to a second input data related to a second input device connected to a second platform;
- triggering an action related to the second input data.
A system for cross-platform input data unification, the system comprising:
- a first platform configured to
- receive first input data from a first input device connected to the first platform,
- convert the first input data to a standard action, and
- transmit the standard action;
- and
- a second platform configured to
- receive the standard action,
- convert the standard action to a second input data related to a second input device connected to the second platform, and
- triggering an action related to the second input data.
