Sintokogio was granted 1 patent across 1 category: Hardware (1).
The patent covers a force plate controller system designed for virtual reality and gaming applications. This Hardware technology detects when users approach the edge of the play area and provides alerts to prevent falls while maintaining immersion during gameplay.
The Hardware patent addresses a persistent safety challenge in virtual reality environments where players become disoriented and risk stepping off their physical play surface. The force plate controller continuously tracks the center of pressure under a user's feet, calculating their position in real-time. When the system detects that a player has drifted dangerously close to the edge, it triggers an alert before they actually step off, maintaining both safety and immersion. This approach contrasts with simpler solutions that merely lose signal after a user has already left the Platforms, offering instead a predictive warning system that keeps gameplay flowing while preventing accidents.
