For an input interface apparatus for recognizing the motion of an object, there may be cases where the brightness of the object to be captured is insufficient, and thus, a camera takes an image of the object operated by the object, a depth position detector detects the position of the object based on captured frames, an action identifying unit identifies an action of the player based on a result on the detection of the object, an input receiving unit receives the action as an instruction to an input-receiving image displayed on a display, and in response to the action, an illumination control unit raises the brightness of the image projected on the display higher than that before the action is detected.

The present invention relates to a free-from surface creation method and apparatus thereof which can automatically determine such internal control points that allow a plurality of patches to form a smooth surface. Based on the four normal lines (N.sub.00, N.sub.01, N.sub.10, N.sub.11) to a quadrilateral patch A at its corners and on its four edges (E.sub.1, E.sub.2, E.sub.3, E.sub.4), reference normal lines at a plurality of points defined on each edge (E.sub.1, E.sub.2, E.sub.3, E.sub.4) are determined, and each reference normal line determined on the respective plurality of points are approximated to the normal line corresponding to the plurality of points which are defined on the edges of which are shared with the quadrilateral patch A and the adjacent patch. Therefore, the internal control points of the quadrilateral patch A are determined.

An information processing device in which a data bus for establishing interconnection between a plurality of control operating units formed in a main processor is connected at one end to a graphic processor and at the other end to a main memory. Image frame data generated by the graphic processor is sequentially transferred through the data bus and stored into the main memory. The data bus satisfies R1≧R2≧R4 and R1≧R3≧R4, where R1 is the data transmission rate from the main processor to the graphic processor, R2 is the data transmission rate from the graphic processor to the main processor, R3 is the data transmission rate between the main processor and the main memory, and R4 is the rate to transmit a single image frame of data within a vertical blanking interval.

A game controller includes a plurality of LEDs formed on the rear of a case. The plurality of LEDs are arranged two-dimensionally in its layout area. The game controller has a plurality of PWM control units which are provided inside the case and control the lighting of the plurality of LEDs, respectively. The PWM control units control the lighting of the LEDs based on a control signal from a game apparatus. The game apparatus acquires a captured image of the game controller, and acquires the position of the game controller in the captured image based on the positions of the LEDs in the captured image.

The present invention provides a game system using LEDs in a controller 20. In a game system of the present invention, an image pickup apparatus captures the controller. The controller includes multiple input units for making an operation input to advance a game, and multiple LEDs for indicating a controller number set for the controller in a game application executed. A game apparatus accepts an operation input provided to the controller and reflects the operation input in the processing of a game application, acquires a captured image from the image pickup apparatus, acquires the position of the controller in the captured image based on the position of the LED in the captured image and reflects the acquired position information in the processing of the game application, and generates an image signal showing the result of application processing performed based on the operation input and acquired position information.

The content recommendation system includes a user attribute information acquisition means for acquiring attribute information of a given user, a list acquisition means for acquiring at least one list from among lists of content sequentially generated over time on the basis of the attribute information of the given user acquired by the user attribute information acquisition means, a user preference information acquisition means for acquiring user preference information, which is feature information of content preferred by the given user, a content extraction means for extracting some content from content included in the list acquired by the list acquisition means on the basis of the user preference information acquired by the user preference information acquisition means, and a content presentation means for presenting the content extracted by the content extraction means to the given user.
摘要:
Provided is a game system utilizing the LEDs of a controller (20). In a game system (1), an image pickup device (2) takes the image of the controller (20). The controller (20) includes a plurality of input units for performing an operation input to proceed a game, and a plurality of LEDs for expressing a controller number to be set in the controller (20), in a game application to be executed. A game device (10) accepts and reflects the operation input of the controller (20), upon the processing of the game application, acquires the taken image from the image pickup device (2), acquires a position in the taken image of the controller (20) from the positions of the LEDs in the taken image, reflects the acquired position information upon the processing of the game application, and generates an image signal indicating the application processing result based on the operation input and the acquired position information.

Disclosed is a shape data processing method illustratively for use with a CAD,CAM (computed aided design/ computer aided manufacturing) system. The method involves measuring the volume of a target product based on the shape data of that product. In operation, a virtual projection surface is established for the target object to be measured. The surface of the object is divided into small regions. A column portion is formed as an extension from each small region to the projection surface. The volume of the column portion is measured for each small region. The measured volumes are accumulated in accordance with the orientation of the normal vector to each small region. This method allows the volume of the target object to be measured easily and with precision even if the shape thereof is complex.
