AMBIDEXTROUS MOUSE
20180032158 · 2018-02-01 ·

An ambidextrous mouse is disclosed. The ambidextrous mouse is configured for both left and right handed use. The mouse may include right handed buttons on the front side of the mouse and left handed buttons on the back side of the mouse. The user may change the handedness of the mouse by rotating the mouse about a vertical axis of the mouse such that the left hand can use the left hand buttons and the right hand can use the right hand buttons. The mouse may include a handedness selection system for configuring the mouse for right handed or left handed use even though the mouse has the capability for both right and left hands.

CURSOR CONTROLLER AND TWO-DIMENSIONAL NAVIGATION MODULE THEREOF
20180032151 · 2018-02-01 ·

A two-dimensional navigation module of a cursor controller includes a top plate, a first rod, a sliding roller sleeved at the first rod, and a first OTS sensor. The top plate has an elongated groove recessed thereon. The first rod is arranged in the groove. Two opposite ends of the first rod are fastened to the top plate. The sliding roller is movable along the first rod between a first position and a second position, and the sliding roller is spinable along the first rod in a range of 0360 degrees. When the sliding roller is moved, a center segment of the first rod keeps touching the sliding roller. The first OTS sensor is arranged under the center segment of the first rod for detecting at least one of a moving distance and a spinning angle of the sliding roller.

Cheat detection by comparing mouse input and frame buffer
12179119 · 2024-12-31 · ·

The disclosure provides a cheating detection strategy for interactive programs, which detects programmatically-generated motion from actual human-generated motion based on a comparison of actual motion data to inferred motion data. The cheating detection strategy uses visual and input information to ensure that the input matches the output to detect and avoid cheating tools positioned in between the input and the output. In one example, the disclosure provide a method of monitoring cheating in interactive programs that includes: (1) receiving actual motion data from a user input device, wherein the actual motion data corresponds to interacting with the interactive program, (2) receiving image data of the interactive program that includes image sequences of the interactive program to display on a screen, (3) comparing the actual motion data to inferred motion data determined from the image sequences, and (4) determining possible cheating based on the comparing.

Input device with adaptive grip orientation

A computer input system includes a mouse including a housing having an interior surface defining an internal volume and a sensor assembly disposed in the internal volume. A processor is electrically coupled to the sensor assembly and a memory component having electronic instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to determine an orientation of the mouse relative to a hand based on a touch input from the hand detected by the sensor assembly. The mouse can also have a circular array of touch sensors or lights that detect hand position and provide orientation information to the user.
