A controller device includes a controller body with an interface port and least one control information output port. A modular input control is removably attachable to the controller body. The modular input control includes an interface connector region that is configured to communicatively couple the modular input control to the interface port. The modular input control is configured to be freely rotatable when attached to the controller body and operable in any orientation about the axis of rotation.

A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may include, for example, device may perform operations for receiving a signal from an operational space associated with an accessory device, determining hand feature information according to the signal, accessing device location information associated with the computing accessory device, generating hand-device interaction information according to the hand feature information and device location information associated with the accessory device, and transmitting the hand-device interaction information to a virtual reality system, wherein the virtual reality system generates, according to the hand-device interaction information, a virtual hand and a virtual accessory device in a virtual reality image. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for facilitating a convenient transfer of control elements for a gaming session from one device to another device without interrupting the gaming session for one or more players. For example, systems disclosed herein include pairing an input device (e.g., a gaming controller) with one or more client devices. Once paired, the input device may detect a trigger condition based on proximity of a registered client device to the input device. The client device may pull control of one or more control elements for the gaming session. The client device may then continue the gaming session without interrupting the experience for the user or for other users that may be engaged within the gaming session.

An electronic device may receive audio during play of a game on a game console over a network. The electronic device may detect one or more sounds during the monitoring of the audio. The electronic device may control, based on the detected one or more sounds, operation of a game controller that interacts with the game during play. The controlling of the operation of the game controller may comprise adjusting sensitivity of the game controller. The electronic device may determine directionality of the detected one or more sounds and adjust the sensitivity of the game controller based on the determined directionality of the detected one or more sounds. The electronic device may increase and/or decrease the sensitivity of the game controller in response to changes in the determined directionality of the detected one or more sounds.

An operation system includes an operation device and an information terminal connected to the operation device. The operation device has an operation section including a plurality of operating elements. The information terminal includes an operation registration section configured to register an operation involving use of at least one of the plurality of operating elements to a target operating element constituted by at least one of the plurality of operating elements, an operation determination section configured to determine whether or not the target operating element is operated, and an information generation section configured to generate, when the target operating element is determined to be operated, operation information corresponding to the operation registered to the target operating element by the operation registration section. Either the operation device or the information terminal includes an information transmission section configured to transmit the operation information generated by the information generation section.
