Abstract

The present invention generally relates to a system for interaction of at least one user or multiple users with a virtual environment. In particular the present invention relates to HIDs, and in an aspect to a pointing device game controller to be used to shoot virtual projectiles towards an object displayed on the display screen provided by a system for interaction of multiple users with a virtual environment, the system comprising: at least one computer device, arranged for processing and outputting a video signal to at least one display screen for displaying the virtual environment and moving at least one object within the virtual environment; multiple human interface devices, arranged for receiving input from the multiple users respectively, and wherein each of the human interface devices is arranged for generating control signals corresponding to input from the user and for communicating the control signal towards the at least one computer device for manipulating movement of at least one objects on the display screen. The system is characterized in that each of the human interface devices comprises a pointing device stationary attached by at least one shaft and arranged for determining an azimuth and altitude of the pointing device and generating the control signals thereon for movement of the at least one object within the virtual environment in a corresponding trajectory, and wherein the at least one computer device is arranged for distinguishing each of the multiple human interface devices and the relative position thereof in view of the display screen.
