Video games typically involve user interaction to generate visual feedback on a display. For instance, controllers are oftentimes used to manipulate games. According to an example, a controller can be employed to manipulate a game executed on a video game console, which can cause visual content to be rendered on a display (e.g., television, monitor, etc.). An example of an early controller employed to manipulate a game is a joystick that includes one button. However, modern controllers with a plurality of analog and discrete inputs have more recently become more prevalent. By way of illustration, controllers employed with video game consoles commonly include analog thumbstick(s), analog trigger(s), discrete button(s), and/or directional pad(s). Accordingly, games that can be executed on consoles have become more sophisticated to take advantage of the variety of inputs provided by the modern controllers.
As mobile touch-enabled devices have become more ubiquitous, versions of console-based games that can be executed on mobile touch-enabled devices have become more commonly available. However, a user experience when interacting with a version of a game on a mobile touch-enabled device is oftentimes degraded as compared to a user experience when interacting with a version of that game on the video game console. The user experience can be detrimentally impacted, for example, since mobile touch-enabled devices conventionally fail to provide tactile feedback similar to controllers for consoles.
Moreover, the user experience can be degraded since mobile touch-enabled devices are typically relegated to using less complex control models with fewer inputs compared to control models employed by controllers for consoles. For example, a mobile touch-enabled device commonly has two points of control (e.g., the two thumbs), while a conventional controller for a console oftentimes has more than the two points of control. When the mobile touch-enabled device is held by the user, the user can touch a display of the mobile touch-enabled device with her two thumbs, while her other fingers are typically used to hold the mobile touch-enabled device. Further, if the user tries to hold the mobile touch-enabled device with more fingers on the display (e.g., a thumb and at least one additional finger of a hand), then a natural range of motion of her thumbs can be limited, particularly for larger mobile touch-enabled devices. In contrast, a conventional controller oftentimes includes triggers and/or buttons positioned to be operated by fingers other than the thumbs of the user when the controller is being held. If a less complex control model is utilized with a mobile touch-enabled device, then some operations that can be manipulated by a user in a version of a game for a console can be unavailable in a version of the game for the mobile touch-enabled device, which can result in a diminished user experience.
Described herein are various technologies that pertain to controlling a game with a mobile touch-enabled device. A thumbstick can be rendered on a reassignable area of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device. Further, a mode selection button can be rendered on a mode selection area of the display. A first operation in the game can be controlled in response to a first touch detected within the reassignable area of the display. For instance, the thumbstick can be represented as being at a default height when the first operation is controlled. Moreover, a second touch, which can be a drag from the mode selection area to the reassignable area, can be detected. A second operation in the game can thereafter be controlled in response to a third touch, where the second touch and the third touch are detected without discontinuity of contact. The thumbstick can be represented as being at a depressed height when the second operation is controlled. Further, the third touch can be detected to be discontinued, and the first operation in the game can be controlled in response to a fourth touch detected within the reassignable area of the display. The detected discontinuation of the third touch can switch the thumbstick from being represented at the depressed height to being represented at the default height.
According to various embodiments described herein, a toggle button can be rendered on a toggle area of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device. If a touch is detected within the toggle area of the display when the thumbstick is rendered on the reassignable area of the display, then a switch from rendering the thumbstick on the reassignable area of the display to rendering a directional pad on the reassignable area of the display can be effectuated. Moreover, a touch can be detected within the reassignable area of the display when the directional pad is rendered thereupon, and an operation in the game can be controlled in response thereto. The operation, for instance, can differ from the operations in the game that can be controlled in response to touches detected in the reassignable area when the thumbstick is rendered on the reassignable area (e.g., with the thumbstick represented as being at a default height or a depressed height).
In accordance with other embodiments set forth herein, output of a sensor can be utilized to control one or more operations in the game executed on the mobile touch-enabled device. The sensor can be a gyroscope, an accelerometer, a camera, or the like. In some embodiments, the output of the sensor can be used to detect a degree of tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device and/or whether the mobile touch-enabled device is rotated, which can be employed to control operation(s) in the game. Additionally, or alternatively, in various embodiments, the output of the sensor can be employed to detect a gesture, and an operation in the game can be controlled as a function of the detected gesture.
The above summary presents a simplified summary in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the systems and/or methods discussed herein. This summary is not an extensive overview of the systems and/or methods discussed herein. It is not intended to identify key/critical elements or to delineate the scope of such systems and/or methods.

Moreover, the term “or” is intended to mean an inclusive “or” rather than an exclusive “or.” That is, unless specified otherwise, or clear from the context, the phrase “X employs A or B” is intended to mean any of the natural inclusive permutations. That is, the phrase “X employs A or B” is satisfied by any of the following instances: X employs A; X employs B; or X employs both A and B. In addition, the articles “a” and “an” as used in this application and the appended claims should generally be construed to mean “one or more” unless specified otherwise or clear from the context to be directed to a singular form.
As set forth herein, a game can be controlled with a mobile touch-enabled device. More particularly, an interaction model designed for the mobile touch-enabled device described herein can provide an increased number of analog and/or discrete inputs that can be utilized to manipulate the game as compared to conventional interaction models employed with mobile touch-enabled devices. Accordingly, in comparison to traditional approaches, the interaction model described herein can enable a user to manipulate a game via a mobile touch-enabled device in a manner that is more similar to manipulating a game via a controller used in conjunction with a video game console.
Referring now to the drawings,
Further, the graphical user interface 100 can be rendered to enable a user to interact with a game. For example, although not shown, it is to be appreciated that the graphical user interface 100 can include game data (e.g., visual information related to the game); accordingly, the game data can be rendered on at least a portion of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device. By way of illustration, visual indicators included in the exemplary graphical user interface 100 can be rendered on a layer above the game data on the display of the mobile touch-enabled device; however, the claimed subject matter is not so limited. Moreover, inputs represented by visual indicators included in the exemplary graphical user interface 100 can be utilized by the user to manipulate the game data rendered on the display.
The graphical user interface 100 includes various visual indicators that visually represent different analog and discrete inputs. The visual indicators are positioned in the graphical user interface 100 to be located on different respective areas of a display on which the graphical user interface 100 is rendered. Moreover, according to one or more exemplary embodiments, it is contemplated that an area of the display can be reassignable; accordingly, the graphical user interface 100 can include a first visual indicator located on a reassignable area of the display during a first period of time, and a second visual indicator located on the reassignable area of the display during a second period of time. For example, a touch detected within the reassignable area of the display can control different operations during the first period of time compared to the second period of time. According to a further example, different types of inputs (e.g., analog input versus discrete input) can map to touch detected within the reassignable area of the display during the first period of time compared to the second period of time. Following this example, it is contemplated that the different types of inputs can be utilized to control different operations.
According to an example, one or more of the inputs represented by the visual indicators in the graphical user interface 100 can map to touch detected within corresponding areas of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device; thus, detected touch within the corresponding areas of the display can be used to control various operations of the game. Additionally or alternatively, at least one of the inputs represented by a visual indicator in the graphical user interface 100 can map to an output of one or more disparate sensors included in the mobile touch-enabled device; accordingly, the output from the disparate sensor(s) can be used to control various operations of the game. A camera, an accelerometer, a gyroscope, and the like are examples of the disparate sensors that can be included in the mobile touch-enabled device; however, it is to be appreciated that the claimed subject matter is not so limited. By using the disparate sensor(s), more points of control (e.g., in addition to the two thumbs) can be supported.
The visual indicators included in the exemplary graphical user interface 100 are further described below. It is to be appreciated, however, that a graphical user interface that lacks one or more of the visual indicators illustrated herein and/or includes one or more visual indicators that differ from the visual indicators illustrated herein is intended to fall within the scope of the hereto appended claims. As depicted, the exemplary graphical user interface 100 includes two thumbsticks: namely, a left thumbstick 102 and a right thumbstick 104. Further, the left thumbstick 102 is located within a left thumbstick zone 106 and the right thumbstick 104 is located within a right thumbstick zone 108 in the graphical user interface 100. The graphical user interface 100 also includes a left mode selection button 110 and a right mode selection button 112. A left trough 114 is positioned between the left mode selection button 110 and the left thumbstick zone 106, and a right trough 116 is positioned between the right mode selection button 112 and the right thumbstick zone 108. Moreover, the graphical user interface 100 includes a toggle button 118 and four tap buttons (e.g., an A button 120, a B button 122, an X button 124, and a Y button 126). The graphical user interface 100 additionally includes a left trigger button 128, a right trigger button 130, a left bumper 132, and a right bumper 134.
The visual indicators depicted in
Moreover, inputs used to control operations in the game represented by the left thumbstick 102, the right thumbstick 104, the left mode selection button 110, the right mode selection button 112, the toggle button 118, the A button 120, the B button 122, the X button 124, and the Y button 126 can map to touch detected within corresponding areas of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device. Further, inputs used to control operations in the game represented by the left trigger button 128 and the right trigger button 130 can map to a measured amount of tilt (e.g., measured angle of tilt) of the mobile touch-enabled device detected from output of a sensor. Moreover, inputs used to control operations in the game represented by the left bumper 132 and the right bumper 134 can map to rotation of the mobile touch-enabled device detected from output of a sensor. According to an example, the sensor utilized to detect the amount of tilt and the sensor utilized to detect the rotation can be the same sensor. Pursuant to another example, different sensors can be employed to detect the amount of tilt and the rotation of the mobile touch-enabled device. In accordance with yet a further example, it is contemplated that more than one sensor can be utilized to detect the amount of tilt and/or the rotation of the mobile touch-enabled device.
Further, a subset of the inputs utilized to control operations in the game are analog inputs and a remainder of the inputs utilized to control operations in the game are discrete inputs. More particularly, the inputs represented by the left thumbstick 102, the right thumbstick 104, the left trigger button 128, and the right trigger button 130 are analog inputs, while a remainder of the inputs can be discrete inputs. An analog input can receive analog input information, which can be a value within a continuous range. Further, a discrete input can receive discrete input information; the discrete input information can be an on or off value, an up, down, left, or right value, or any other discrete value. A discrete input, for instance, can be responsive to a tap of a user.
As noted above, the input represented by the right thumbstick 104 is an analog input that can receive analog input information. According to an example, a user can touch a portion of the right reassignable area of the display on which the right thumbstick 104 is rendered with his right thumb. While continuing to touch the display, the user can move his right thumb within the right reassignable area (e.g., within the right thumbstick zone 108). As the user moves his right thumb within the right reassignable area of the display, the right thumbstick 104 can move within the graphical user interface 100 rendered on the display to provide visual feedback to the user, for instance; however, the claimed subject matter is not so limited. Moreover, following this example, the touch of the user can be detected and mapped to analog input information. The analog input information can vary within a continuous range of values as a function of a location on the display at which the touch is detected the analog input information can change within the range of values based on movement of the right thumb on the display, removal of the right thumb from the display, etc). Moreover, it is contemplated that the input represented by the left thumbstick 102 can be substantially similar to the input represented by the right thumbstick 104.
Further, as described above, the input represented by the A button 120 is an example of a discrete input that can receive discrete input information. Pursuant to an example, whether a user is touching or not touching a tap area of the display on which the A button 120 is rendered can be detected. In accordance with this example, whether or not a touch is detected in the tap area of the display on which the A button 120 is rendered can be mapped to discrete input information. For instance, the input represented by the A button 120 can function as a single press or a press and hold button. In accordance with an illustration, if the input represented by the A button 120 functions as a single press button, then the discrete input information can switch from a first state to a second state (e.g., on to off, off to on, etc.) in response to a detected transition from the user not touching to the user touching the tap area of the display on which the A button 120 is rendered (or alternatively the transition from the user touching to the user not touching such tap area). By way of yet another illustration, if the input represented by the A button 120 functions as a press and hold button, then the discrete input information can switch from a first state to a second state (e.g., off to on, on to off, etc.) in response to a detected transition from the user not touching to the user touching the tap area of the display on which the A button 120 is rendered, and can switch back from the second state to the first state (e.g., on to off, off to on, etc.) in response to a detected transition from the user touching to the user not touching the tap area of the display on which the A button 120 is rendered. Further, it is to be appreciated that inputs represented by the B button 122, the X button 124, and the Y button 126 can be substantially similar to the input represented by the A button 120.

Thereafter, if the mobile touch-enabled device 202 detects the right thumb 206 of the user touching the right reassignable area of the display (e.g., a fourth touch) after discontinuation of the third touch, then the first operation in the game can again be controlled in response to the fourth touch. The fourth touch can be detected within the right reassignable area of the display when the right thumbstick 104 is represented as being at the default height as shown in

According to an example, if a disparate touch within the toggle area of the display (e.g., on which the toggle button 118 is rendered) is detected when the directional pad 502 is rendered on the left reassignable area of the display (e.g., as shown in
Pursuant to an example, it is contemplated that the input represented by the left mode selection button 110 can be disabled when the directional pad 502 is rendered on the display. According to an alternative example, the input represented by the left mode selection button 110 can be enabled when the directional pad 502 is rendered on the display. Following this example, a touch detected within the left mode selection area of the display when the directional pad 502 is rendered on the display can cause the left reassignable area of the display of the mobile touch-enabled device to switch from rendering the directional pad 502 to rendering the left thumbstick 102 of
According to another example, a touch (e.g., a drag similar to the drag described above in relation to

The amount of the tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device 202 relative to the predetermined plane can be measured. Moreover, an operation in the game can be controlled as a function of the amount of the tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device 202. It is contemplated that the amount of the tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device 202 can map to analog input information for the game. Further, a level of the analog input information for the game can remain constant when the amount of the tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device 202 remains constant relative to the predetermined plane.
Similarly,

According to an example, whether the mobile touch-enabled device 202 is rotated in the plane defined by the surface of the display can be detected. Moreover, an operation in the game can be controlled whether the mobile touch-enabled device 202 is rotated as detected. Further, whether the mobile touch-enabled device 202 is rotated can be mapped to discrete input information for the game.
For instance, a clockwise rotation of the mobile touch-enabled device 202 as shown in
Pursuant to a further example, whether the mobile touch-enabled device 202 is moved downwards in the plane defined by the surface of the display as depicted in
Now referring to
Moreover, the system 1300 includes an interaction analysis component 1308 that can receive touch related data from the display 1306. The interaction analysis component 1308 can be configured to detect the various touches described herein based upon the touch related data received from the display 1306. Moreover, the interaction component 1308 can be the various inputs represented by the visual indicators included in the graphical user interface 1304 as set forth herein.
The system 1300 further includes a manipulation component 1310 that can control the graphical user interface 1304 rendered by the output component 1302. More particularly, the manipulation component 1310 can employ input information (e.g., analog input information, discrete input information, etc.) received from the interaction analysis component 1308 to control corresponding operations in a game, which can cause the game data rendered as part of the graphical user interface 1304 (or outputted by the output component 1302 in substantially any other manner) to be changed.
According to an example, the output component 1302 can render at least a thumbstick (e.g., the left thumbstick 102 of
Further, the manipulation component 1310 can control a first operation in the game in response to the touch detected within the reassignable area of the display 1306 when the drag (e.g., from the mode selection area of the display 1306 to the reassignable area of the display 1306) and the touch (e.g., within the reassignable area of the display 1306) are detected without discontinuity of contact by the interaction analysis component 1308. The first operation in the game can be controlled based on the touch detected within the reassignable area of the display 1306 while the thumbstick rendered on the display by the output component 1302 is represented as being at a depressed height. Thus, the first operation in the game can be an operation that can typically be performed by moving an analog thumbstick while depressed on a conventional controller utilized with a video game console. According to an illustration, the first operation in the game that can be controlled as described above can be a crouch operation in a first person shooter or roll playing game (RPG) type of game; however, the claimed subject matter is not so limited.
Moreover, the manipulation component 1310 can otherwise control a second operation in the game when the thumbstick is rendered on the display 1306 by the output component 1302 (e.g., when the drag and touch within the reassignable area are not discontinuously detected). In such a scenario, the thumbstick rendered on the display 1306 by the output component 1302 is represented as being at a default height. The second operation in the game can be controlled in response to the touch detected within the reassignable area of the display 1306 by the interaction analysis component 1308. For instance, the second operation in the game can be an operation that can typically be performed by moving an analog thumbstick (e.g., without being depressed) on a convention controller utilized with a video game console. By way of illustration, the second operation in the game that can be controlled as described above can be a walking or running operation in a first person shooter or RPG type of game; yet, the claimed subject matter is not limited to the foregoing illustration.
In various exemplary embodiments, the interaction analysis component 1308 can optionally include an input alteration component 1312. According to such exemplary embodiments, the output component 1302 can further render a toggle button (e.g., the toggle button 118 of
According to other exemplary embodiments, the system 1300 can optionally include a sensor 1314 that can supply data to the interaction analysis component 1308. The sensor 1314, for example, can be a gyroscope, an accelerometer, a camera, or the like. Moreover, it is contemplated that the system 1300 can optionally include a plurality of sensors. It is to be appreciated that the sensor 1314 can be included in the mobile touch-enabled device.
By way of illustration, the interaction analysis component 1308 can use the data received from the sensor 1314 to measure a degree of tilt of the mobile touch-enabled device relative to a predetermined plane (e.g., as depicted in
In accordance with yet another example, the sensor 1314 can be a camera coupled with the mobile touch-enabled device (e.g., incorporated into, etc.). Following this example, the interaction analysis component 1308 can receive a series of images from the camera. Further, the interaction analysis component 1308 can detect a gesture of a user from the series of images received from the camera (e.g., perform signal processing on the series of images, etc.). Moreover, the manipulation component 1310 can control an operation in the game in response to the gesture of the user detected by the interaction analysis component 1308. By way of illustration, the gesture can be movement of a head of the user (e.g., up, down, left, or right, etc.), a facial gesture (e.g., micro gesture such as gritting teeth, blinking, opening or closing a mouth, etc.), a hand gesture, or the like. By way of further example, it is contemplated that different gestures detected by the interaction analysis component 1308 can be utilized to respectively control different operations.
Pursuant to yet another example, the output component 1302 can vibrate the mobile touch-enabled device to provide force feedback related to the control of the game. According to an illustration, referring to the exemplary user interaction described in
Moreover, the acts described herein may be computer-executable instructions that can be implemented by one or more processors and/or stored on a computer-readable medium or media. The computer-executable instructions can include a routine, a sub-routine, programs, a thread of execution, and/or the like. Still further, results of acts of the methodologies can be stored in a computer-readable medium, displayed on a display device, and/or the like.
At 1408, a second touch can be detected. The second touch can be a drag from the mode selection area of the display to the reassignable area of the display. At 1410, a second operation in the game can be controlled with the thumbstick represented as being at a depressed height in response to a third touch detected within the reassignable area of the display. Moreover, the second touch and the third touch are detected without discontinuity of contact (e.g., continuous contact detected from a beginning of the second touch until an end of the third touch). For instance, the second touch and the third touch can be a single touch of the display without a release of the display. At 1412, a discontinuation of the third touch can be detected. At 1414, the first operation in the game can be controlled with the thumbstick represented as being at the default height in response to a fourth touch detected within the reassignable area of the display upon detecting the discontinuation of the third touch.
Turning to
At 1504, a first touch can be detected. The first touch can be a drag from the mode selection area of the display to the reassignable area of the display. At 1506, a second touch can be detected within the reassignable area of the display. Further, the first touch and the second touch are detected without discontinuity of contact. At 1508, a first operation in the game can be controlled with the thumbstick represented as being at a depressed height in response to the second touch detected within the reassignable area of the display.
At 1510, a discontinuation of the second touch can be detected (e.g., a thumb of a user can be detected to be released from the display). At 1512, a third touch can be detected within the reassignable area of the display after detecting the discontinuation of the second touch. At 1514, a second operation in the game can be controlled with the thumbstick represented as being at a default height in response to the third touch detected within the reassignable area of the display.
At 1516, a fourth touch can be detected within the toggle area of the display when the thumbstick is rendered on the reassignable area of the display. At 1518, a switch from rendering the thumbstick to rendering a directional pad on the reassignable area of the display can be effectuated in response to the fourth touch detected within the toggle area of the display. At 1520, a fifth touch can be detected within the reassignable area of the display with the directional pad rendered on the reassignable area of the display. At 1522, a third operation in the game can be controlled in response to the fifth touch detected within the reassignable area of the display.
