1. An electronic game feedback system comprising:
- a camera device configured to acquire display data from a radar map provided within a display provided by a display device, the display being a display of a virtual environment associated with an electronic game, the electronic game associated with a primary object and a secondary object, wherein the display data is indicative of a characteristic of the secondary object relative to the primary object, the characteristic including at least one of a location, an orientation, a range, or a bearing of the secondary object relative to the primary object;
a wearable feedback device configured to be worn by a user; and
a processing circuit configured to;
receive the display data from the camera device; and
provide a command to the wearable feedback device to provide feedback to the user based on the characteristic of the secondary object relative to the primary object;
wherein the wearable feedback device is configured to provide the feedback to the user of the wearable feedback device based on the command.

Abstract
An electronic game feedback system includes a display device, a sensor system, and a feedback device. The display device is configured to provide a display of a virtual environment associated with an electronic game to a user. The display device at least partially obstructs the view of the user of a physical environment surrounding the user. The sensor system is configured to acquire object data regarding an object located within the physical environment. The feedback device is configured to provide feedback to the user based on the object data and indicative of a location of the object relative to the user.

25. A method for providing feedback to a user of an electronic game, the method comprising:
-
acquiring, by a camera device, display data from a radar map provided within a display of a virtual environment associated with the electronic game provided by a display device, the electronic game associated with a primary object and a secondary object, wherein the display data is indicative of a characteristic of the secondary object relative to the primary object, the characteristic including at least one of a location, an orientation, a range, or a bearing of the secondary object relative to the primary object; receiving, by a processing circuit from the camera device, the display data; providing, by the processing circuit to a wearable feedback device, a command to provide feedback to the user based on the characteristic of the secondary object relative to the primary object; and implementing, by the wearable feedback device, the command to provide the feedback to the user. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29)
