Magic wand methods, apparatuses and systems for defining, initiating, and conducting quests
First Claim
1. A wand comprising:
- one or more sensors, communicatively coupled with at least one processor, to detect one or more gestures wherein the one or more gestures are movements performed using the wand by a user of the wand, and generate sensor data representative of the one or more gestures;
a device interface module to operate on the at least one processor to obtain, from the one or more sensors, the sensor data representative of the one or more gestures;
a spell module to operate on the at least one processor to receive, from the device interface module, the sensor data representative of the one or more gestures, and convert the sensor data representative of the one or more gestures into a spell sequence; and
a wand communication module, communicatively coupled with the at least one processor, to transmit the spell sequence to a computing device, and receive, from the computing device, a spell output based on the spell sequence, a wand position, and a quest, wherein the quest indicates an order in which one or more second devices are to be activated and one or more spells to activate each of the one or more second devices.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, systems, and storage media for creating, discovering, and/or resolving spells using a wand are provided. In embodiments, a computing device or a wand may detect one or more gestures and sensors in the wand may generate sensor data representative of the one or more gestures. The one or more gestures may be movements performed using the wand. The sensor data representative of the one or more gestures may be converted into a spell sequence. The wand may transmit the spell sequence to a computing device, and receive, from the computing device, a spell output based on the spell sequence, a wand position, and a quest. The quest may indicate an order in which one or more second devices are to be activated and one or more spells to activate each of the one or more second devices. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

13. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) comprising instructions for creating a quest, wherein execution of the instructions is to cause a computing device to:
-
define the quest indicating an order in which one or more second devices are to be activated and one or more spells to cast to activate each of the one or more second devices; and provide the quest to a wand for commencement of the quest, wherein, to define the quest, execution of the instructions is to cause to the computing device to; select each of the one or more second devices to define the order; define one or more gestures to be performed to activate each of the one or more second devices, wherein the one or more gestures are movements performed by a user using the wand; define a spell output to be associated with the one or more gestures and a wand position relative to each of the one or more second devices, wherein the spell output indicates at least one of a first instruction for activating one or more first devices and a second instruction for activating each of the one or more second devices; generate a defined spell sequence for each of the one or more second devices based on the defined one or more gestures; and store the defined spell sequence for each of the one or more second devices in association with the defined spell output. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
