ABSTRACT:
A method of identifying a specific object representation in a computer simulation is presented. A computer simulation of a physical room is generated and displayed by a game console. A game controller is integrated with a laser rangefinder to create a laser-integrated game controller that is capable of determining and transmitting, to the game console, a real-time location and spatial orientation of a real physical object that is represented by a computer-generated object representation in the computer simulation. The game controller and laser-integrated game controller are able to identify a specific object representation, which corresponds with the real physical object, based on the real-time location of the laser-integrated game controller, the spatial orientation of the laser-integrated game controller, and the range signal from the laser rangefinder in the laser-integrated game controller to the real physical object.
