  • Duckhunter 6.111 Final Project Report
    Duckhunter 6.111 Final Project Report Taylor Barton and Andrew Lisy December 14, 2005 Abstract Duck Hunt is a classic first-person shooter game for the Nintendo Entertainment System, in which the player uses a special light gun to “shoot” images of either one or two ducks or clay pigeons, depending on the game mode. Our Duckhunter project focused on the third mode of this game: clay shooting. In this mode, two clay pigeons are launched from the bottom of the screen into the distance, and the player is given three shots to hit them both before they are too far away. In an attempt to beat this game, we have built a servomechanism to automatically track and shoot down the clay pigeons. The labkit’s FPGA was programmed to “look” at the video output of the Nintendo System by receiving its video outputs, find the moving targets, and calculate the angle at which to aim the light gun. It outputs the appropriate signals to two servomechanisms to control up-down and left- right aiming, and fire the light gun. In addition, Duckhunter has a calibration mode to improve the accuracy of aim. 1 duckhunter.tex 2572 2005-12-14 21:54:43Z alisy 2 Contents 1 Overview (alisy) 4 2 Description of Duckhunter 4 2.1 Input System and Disc Tracking DSP (alisy) ............................ 4 2.1.1 detection toplevel . 4 2.1.2 NTSC decode, adv7185init, i2c . 6 2.1.3 YCrCb2RGB . 6 2.1.4 NTSC to ram......................................... 6 2.1.5 vga to ram .......................................... 7 2.1.6 trajectory .

  • Controlling VR Games: Control Schemes and the Player Experience
    Controlling VR Games: Control Schemes and the Player Experience by Erin Martel A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Human-Computer Interaction Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2020, Erin Martel Abstract Control schemes are central to the user experience in video games as they determine the quality of a user’s interaction with the game world. Since the 1990’s, desktop 3D games have adopted the “mouselook” scheme, in which the mouse simultaneously rotates the camera view, aims and steers the avatar. However, virtual reality games do not yet have a standard control scheme and require a different approach in order to integrate input from the head-mounted display, an additional input device not present in desktop 3D games. To address this gap, we conducted two mixed-methods studies to evaluate the usability of control schemes for controller-based VR games in the FPS genre. The first study used keyboard and mouse and the second used Oculus Touch motion controllers as input devices. User study 1 showed that “coupled” control schemes in which the camera view and steering the avatar were controlled by both the mouse and head-mounted display were most usable. Study 2 showed that both the coupled and “decoupled” schemes were usable, although some users found the decoupled scheme disorienting. ii Acknowledgements First, I would like to thank my thesis supervisors, Dr. Kasia Muldner and Dr. Robert Teather for their patience and help during this process. To Dr. Muldner, I am grateful for your expert guidance and generosity in my time at Carleton.

  • MAME Controller Mapping Utility (Draft Version 1.0)
    MAME Controller Mapping Utility (Draft Version 1.0) MAME supports using custom controller files (ctrlr files). Our MAME Controller Mapping Utility uses this MAME feature to map your light guns and other controls to up to six players in MAME. We have a User Interface (UI) that allows you to easily setup all of your Light Guns, Trackballs, Spinners, Joysticks and Keyboard in MAME. Our MAME Controller Mapping Utility is part of our Arcade Guns Pro Utility software package. With our MAME Controller Mapping Utility, as seen in the lower part of the image above, you can map your controllers to a specific player. That player will always be mapped to the controllers you specify, no matter what. Controllers can be added/removed/moved/restarted and your player -> controller mapping will not change. There is also a separate utility called MAME Auto Detect, as seen in upper part of the image above. This utility detects when a MAME games is launched and automatically locates where your MAME executable and mame.ini config files are located on your PC. The mame.ini file path is used by the MAME Controller Mapping Utility. When you enable the MAME Controller Mapping Utility it will update your mame.ini file with settings that are required for the mapping to work. Look near the end of this manual for the complete list of changes to your mame.ini file that this utility makes. There is no denying that MAME is a great Emulator with just about every possible input option for any type of controller you would possibly want to use.
