Collective Minds Gaming Co.
has 1 granted patent in Hardware. The patent describes a universal adapter system that enables a single gaming accessory to attach to multiple generations of Xbox controllers. This Hardware solution uses swappable body and port adapters to provide compatibility across different controller models.
Gaming accessories typically face obsolescence when new controller models arrive with different shapes or ports. Collective Minds addresses this with a universal adapter system that uses two independent components working in tandem. One adapter handles the physical connection to the controller body using an interference-fit mechanism, while a separate adapter manages the electrical port connection. By making both components swappable, the same core accessory can attach to Xbox controllers across multiple generations despite changes in both form factor and connector type.
