Controller Push-Button Threshold Control for Analog Input Feedback
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current high-performance controller apparatuses for information processing systems lack advanced mechanisms to enhance user experience through precise acquisition and processing of analog input values, such as push-button operations, leading to suboptimal interaction quality.
Innovation Solution
An information processing apparatus connected to a controller with a push button that includes acquisition means for determining the push-in amount, determination means to assess if the push-in amount falls within specific threshold ranges, and process execution means to execute predetermined actions based on these determinations, thereby improving user interaction.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If the controller apparatus acquires analog values with high accuracy, then the information quality improves, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The push button operation range is segmented into multiple regions using threshold values (first threshold and second threshold). This segmentation allows the system to process analog values by dividing the continuous range into discrete operational zones, improving measurement utility while maintaining manageable device complexity through software-based classification rather than additional hardware components.
2Adaptability or versatility
If various processes are implemented using high-performance controller data, then user experience quality improves, but the processing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts processing based on the determined push button region. Different processes are executed depending on which threshold range the analog value falls into, allowing versatile adaptability to various user inputs while maintaining clear processing logic. This dynamic process selection enables multiple game modes and interactions without requiring separate dedicated systems for each function.

AI summary
The information processing apparatus is connected to a controller apparatus provided with a push button which moves from a first position to a second position by being pushed by a user's finger. The information processing apparatus acquires the push-in amount of the push button of the controller apparatus, determines whether or not the push-in amount is in a range that excludes the first position and the second position and is configured by two threshold values set between the first position and the second position, and performs predetermined processing on the basis of the result of the determination.
