| 20090066641 | Methods and Systems for Interpretation and Processing of Data Streams - Methods and systems for interpreting and processing data streams from a plurality of sensors on a motion-capture device are described. In various embodiments, an engine module of the system receives a raw input data stream comprising motion and non-motion data. Metadata is associated with data segments within the input data stream to produce a stream of data profiles. In various embodiments, an interpreter converts received data profiles into non-contextual tokens and/or commands recognizable by an application adapted for external control. In various embodiments, a parser converts received non-contextual tokens into contextual tokens and/or commands recognizable by an application adapted for external control. In various embodiments, the system produces commands based upon the non-contextual and/or contextual tokens and provides the commands to the application. The application can be a video game, software operating on a computer, or a remote-controlled apparatus. In various aspects, the methods and systems transform motions and operation of a motion-capture device into useful commands which control an application adapted for external control. | 03-12-2009 |
