A system and method for providing real-time exercise parameters generated from exercise and sports equipment by a user into gameplay of game titles. The real-time exercise parameters may include power data, resistance data, cadence data, speed data, etc. and associated timestamps, such that the exercise parameters may be used for generating instructions corresponding to a set of inputs associated with gameplay of a game title. A game server associated with the game title may receive and execute the instructions to initiate performance of an in-game action by an avatar of the user within a gaming environment of the game title.

Systems and methods for integrating biometric data into gameplay of interactive content titles are provided. More specifically, such systems and methods may provide a healthcare gamification hub in an online gaming system. whereby players are incentivized to reach health and wellness goals that may be translated into in-game or metagaming resources for interactive content titles. Earning game resources may be associated stored health gamification rules that specify actions associated with corresponding biometric data and a virtual reward that is redeemable towards one or more in-game rewards associated with one or more interactive content titles. Real-time biometric data regarding a user may be received and the biometric data may be captured by one or more sensor devices.

One or more custom actions are stored in memory. Each of the custom actions is associated with a pattern of physical movement and a threshold. Physical movement data captured by a user device of the user is received and mapped to an identified one of the custom actions. When the physical movement data matches the associated pattern of physical movement within the associated threshold, it is determined that the user is authorized to access the identified custom action.

A player character is moved based on an operation performed on a direction input device, the position of a virtual camera is controlled based on the position of the player character, and a swing direction in which an operation device has been swung is determined based on data from an inertial sensor, and causes the player character to perform a swing action of swinging in a direction according to the swing direction. Then, a moving object is moved based on collision determination between the swing action and the moving object, thereby controlling a sport game using the moving object.

A method for connecting game plays between different players playing a video game. The method includes determining that a first character has accomplished a mission within a region of a virtual environment of the video game, wherein the first character is controlled by a first player playing the video game in a first game play. The method includes opening access by the first character to a regional inter-game communication medium in response to accomplishing the task. The method includes generating first data in the first game play. The method includes cross-pollinating the first data using the regional inter-game communication medium across a plurality of virtual environments of a plurality of asynchronous game plays of a plurality of players.

According to one aspect of the present invention, a virtual reality control system for providing a chemical accident response training content includes a sensor detecting a light signal, a display displaying an image, at least one controller controlling the display, and a simulator displayed as a valve in the image, wherein the controller is configured to acquire first position data related to the user and second position data related to the simulator based on the light signal, acquire first virtual position data indicating a character corresponding to the user and acquire second virtual position data indicating the valve, and display the character and the valve on the display and display a gas within a predetermined distance from the valve, wherein at least a portion of the gas is not displayed when the character moves while at least a portion of the character is in contact with the valve.

An amusement park system includes a modular attraction system having a ride vehicle having seats to accommodate passengers, an on-board system integrated with the ride vehicle and having on-board game systems connected via a network. Each on-board game system is configured to provide an augmented reality (AR) experience, or a virtual reality (VR) experience, or both, via a respective visual experience generator device. The AR experience, or the VR experience, or both, is provided within a game shared between the on-board game systems. The on-board game systems are integrated into the ride vehicle, and are connected via the network to one another in a manner that allows for ready removal of all or a portion of one of the on-board game systems without affecting operation of the remaining on-board game systems.
