METHOD OF CONTROLLING A DISPLAY ELEMENT BY A GAMING CONSOLE Russian patent published in 2022 - IPC G06F3/338 A63F13/22 G05G9/47 

FIELD: computer engineering.

SUBSTANCE: method of controlling the position and/or movement of a display element generated on a display screen by a video game console connected to a game controller comprising a control lever, made with possibility of displacement by user with at least two degrees of freedom in zone limited by mechanical stop, includes: measurement of position of control lever, projecting in the base plane the position of the lever to determine the first set of coordinates, determining the homothetic figure on the mechanical stop of the lever, determining the described square on the homothetic figure, projecting onto the described square at least one coordinate from the first set of coordinates, calculation of the second set of coordinates in the Cartesian coordinate system based on the projection of the said at least one coordinate of the first set of coordinates on the described square.

EFFECT: exclusion of displacement zone limitation (which has a projected shape in the form of a circle, hexagon or other polygon, of any shape or even an ellipse) with an effective measurement zone (which is a square inscribed in the projected circle).
