  • Patent number: 11577173
    Abstract: A controller support for virtual reality video games, where the support is presented in the form of a stick simulating an object in the virtual reality video game, at least one housing is adapted to receive a controller by interlocking, the controller housing is secured to the stick by way of a pin, the controller housing is grippable and configured to be removably engaged on the pin, a magnetic connection exerting a magnetic force ensures the holding in position of the controller housing on the pin, the magnetic connection is configured such that the engagement/disengagement of the controller housing on the pin is done by a lateral movement of said housing, the magnetic force being oriented in the direction of this lateral movement.

  • Patent number: 11325030
    Abstract: A game pad holder for video games adapted to simulate a weapon, the holder has a mechanical force feedback device designed to simulate the recoil of the weapon at the moment of a trigger pressure during a game event, and the force feedback device includes: a casing in the form of a butt in physical contact with a zone of the body of the player, a firing pin forming a physical contact with the zone of the body of the player, and the firing pin is mounted mobile in the casing between: a folding position, and an advanced position to impact the zone of the body of the player. The device further includes a spring element, an actuator and an electronic management unit so that only pressure exerted on the firing pin the player allows to make the firing pin to pass from an advanced position to the folding position.
