STORAGE MEDIUM STORING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD
First Claim
1. A storage medium storing an information processing program, said information processing program causes a computer of an information processing apparatus controlling a motion of an object within a virtual space on the basis of a status signal output from a detecting means for detecting a status including at least one of a position and an attitude of an input device to function as,a first motion controlling means for controlling said object such that it performs a first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal,a condition determining means for determining whether or not information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition, anda second motion controlling means for controlling said object such that it performs a second motion different from said first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal in a case that said condition determining means determines that the information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition.

Abstract
A game apparatus includes a CPU, and the CPU controls a moving object within a virtual space on the basis of acceleration data and angular velocity data which are transmitted from a controller. For example, before the angular velocity data is above a predetermined magnitude, a position and an orientation of the moving object is controlled on the basis of the angular velocity data. When the angular velocity data is above the predetermined magnitude, an initial velocity of the moving object is decided on the basis of the acceleration data, and a moving direction (orientation) of the moving object is decided on the basis of the angular velocity data. Thereafter, the moving object moves within the virtual space according to a general physical behavior.

12. An information processing apparatus for controlling a motion of an object within a virtual space on the basis of a status signal output from a detecting means for detecting a status including at least one of a position and an attitude of an input device, comprising:
-
a first motion controlling means for controlling said object such that it performs a first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal, a condition determining means for determining whether or not information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition, and a second motion controlling means for controlling said object such that it performs a second motion different from said first motion on the basis of said status signal within said virtual space in a case that said condition determining means determines that the information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition.

13. An information processing method of an information processing apparatus for controlling a motion of an object within a virtual space on the basis of a status signal output from a detecting means for detecting a status including at least one of a position and an attitude of an input device including step of:
-
(a) controlling said object such that it performs a first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal, (b) determining whether or not information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition, and (c) controlling said object such that it performs a second motion different from said first motion within said virtual space on the basis of the status signal in a case that said step (b) determines that the information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition.
