Sony continues to innovate, adding two new patents to its expansive collection aimed at enhancing the gaming experience. Dive into the details of Sony's AI-driven camera system and the innovative DualSense trigger attachment designed to elevate your gameplay to new heights.
Sony's latest patents have caught the attention of gamers worldwide, introducing an AI-powered camera system and a gun trigger attachment for the DualSense controller.
The first patent, known as Timed Input/Action Release, involves installing a camera to monitor the player and their controller. This camera captures footage that is then processed by an AI, or more specifically, a "machine learning-based model or other system," to anticipate the player's next button press. Another feature of this system allows players to use "incomplete controller actions," letting the AI predict their intentions based on partial inputs.
This groundbreaking invention aims to minimize lag in online games by allowing the AI and the computer system to stay one step ahead in processing player actions. Lag has long been a significant challenge in online gaming, and Sony's approach could revolutionize the experience.
The second patent introduces a trigger attachment for the DualSense controller, designed to enhance the realism of in-game gunplay for first-person shooters (FPS) and action-adventure RPGs.
By attaching this trigger to the controller, players can hold the DualSense sideways, using the right arm as a gun stock as illustrated. The space between the R1 and R2 buttons serves as the gun's sight, allowing players to aim and fire by pressing the trigger, mimicking the action of a real firearm. The patent also suggests that this accessory could be compatible with other devices, such as the PSVR2 headset.
Sony is renowned for its innovative patents, with 78% of its 95,533 patents still active. These include concepts like adaptive game difficulty based on player skill, a DualSense variant that can store and charge earbuds, and a controller that adjusts its temperature according to in-game events. While these ideas are patented, it's important to note that not all will necessarily become tangible products. Only time will reveal which of Sony's visionary ideas will materialize into real, functional innovations.
