Abstract: A control apparatus includes two or more user control devices, each user control device having an inertial detector having a wireless communications module to communicate inertial detection results, and an illuminated portion; and a housing to house the two or more control devices so that the two or more control devices are constrained to move with one another but having an obscured portion so as to obscure all but one of the illuminated portions of the two or more control devices.

Abstract: Aspects of the technology include method of selecting an object from a videogame for 3D printing. The method involves periodically rendering a virtual environment of a videogame for display at a succession of points in time. Information is periodically recorded that enables visual reconstruction of at least part of the virtual environment at a succession of points in time. A predetermined set of values is periodically recorded responsive to the state of the rendered virtual environment at a succession of points in time. The predetermined set of values enables a model of a selected part of the rendered virtual environment to be generated that is configured for 3D printing.

Abstract: A method of adapting content responsive to a well-being of a user wearing a head mountable display (HMD) includes detecting, by one or more sensors, one or more parameters indicating one or more current properties of the user wearing the HMD, generating information indicating the well-being of the user based on the one or more parameters, and adapting an output of the HMD responsive to the generated information, the output comprising at least one of an image and an audio signal.

Abstract: A calibration system comprises input means operable to receive a set of images, each having a calibration pattern occupying a region of a captured scene, an image processor operable to calculate a combined image region corresponding to the combined regions of calibration patterns captured within the set of images, and an output processor operable to generate an output indicative of a desired region of a scene within which to capture the calibration pattern within a subsequent image.
