Samsung received 1 granted patent in cloud gaming.
The patent covers technology for reducing latency in cloud gaming through a dedicated input offloading module that handles game controller inputs separately from game application processing. This approach addresses thread contention bottlenecks that can slow down responsiveness in cloud gaming systems.
Samsung's single cloud gaming patent tackles the latency problem that plagues remote gaming sessions. The technology creates a separate process dedicated solely to handling controller inputs, complete with its own authentication credentials and processing resources. By routing controller data around the game application entirely, the system avoids delays that occur when the game thread gets bogged down with computation-heavy tasks. Traditional cloud gaming systems forced all inputs through the same thread running the game logic, creating lag spikes whenever the application performed intensive operations.
