Patent number: 11925854Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus that is to be connected to a controller apparatus including a push-button, a force sense presentation section, and the push-button. The push-button moves between a first position and a second position when depressed by a finger of a user. The force sense presentation section presents a force sense to the push-button. The information processing apparatus determines, according to a prescribed force sense setting, the aspect of a force sense to be imparted to the push-button, and controls the force sense presentation section of the controller apparatus, according to the determination. Each time a predefined operation is performed, the information processing apparatus changes the force sense setting from a current force sense setting to a different force sense setting.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2019Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: SONY INTERACTIVE ENTERTAINMENT INC.Inventors: Tomohito Ito, Naoyuki Saito, Hideyuki Uchida, Nicolas Doucet, Masayuki Yamada

Patent number: 11701578Abstract: The information processing apparatus is connected to a controller apparatus provided with a push button which moves from a first position to a second position by being pushed by a user's finger. The information processing apparatus acquires the push-in amount of the push button of the controller apparatus, determines whether or not the push-in amount is in a range that excludes the first position and the second position and is configured by two threshold values set between the first position and the second position, and performs predetermined processing on the basis of the result of the determination.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2019Date of Patent: July 18, 2023Assignee: Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Nicolas Doucet, Hideyuki Uchida, Naoyuki Saito, Tomohito Ito, Eric Bailey, Masayuki Yamada

Publication number: 20210275905Abstract: There are provided a controller apparatus and a control method thereof. The controller apparatus is held by a hand of a user and includes a microphone, a tactile sensation presentation device that presents a tactile sensation to the hand of the user, and a speaker. In addition, during a period in which the user inputs sound from the microphone, the controller apparatus reduces emission of sound of the speaker and causes the tactile sensation presentation device to perform control of tactile sensation presentation.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 2, 2019Publication date: September 9, 2021Applicant: Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc.Inventors: Nicolas Doucet, Hideyuki Uchida, Naoyuki Saito, Tomohito Ito, Eric Bailey, Masayuki Yamada
