First Claim
1. An apparatus comprising:
- a housing configured to be added to a body associated with a software application implemented by a computer;
a sensor;
a transceiver;
a power supply;
a memory including computer program code for one or more programs; and
a processor inside the housing, the processor being communicatively coupled with the sensor, the transceiver, the power supply, and the memory,whereinthe processor is configured to execute an instruction from the memory to;
cause the processor to be communicatively coupled with the computer by way of the transceiver based, at least in part, on a determination that the housing is added to the body;
cause the computer to generate a virtual representation of the body in a virtual reality viewable by way of a display associated with the computer; and
cause the computer to orient the virtual representation of the body in the virtual reality based on data collected by the sensor.

Abstract
An apparatus comprises a housing configured to be added to a body associated with a software application implemented by a computer. The apparatus also comprises a sensor, a transceiver, a power supply, a memory, and a processor inside the housing. The processor is communicatively coupled with the sensor, the transceiver, the power supply, and the memory. The processor is configured to be communicatively coupled with the computer by way of the transceiver based, at least in part, on a determination that the housing is added to the body. The processor is also configured to cause the computer to generate a virtual representation of the body in a virtual reality viewable by way of a display associated with the computer. The processor is further configured to cause the computer to orient the virtual representation of the body in the virtual reality based on data collected by the sensor.

21. A method, comprising:
-
adding a core to a body associated with a software application implemented by a computer; communicatively coupling a processor included within a housing of the core with the computer based, at least in part, on a determination that the housing is added to the body; causing the computer to generate a virtual representation of the body in a virtual reality viewable by way of a display associated with the computer; and causing the computer to orient the virtual representation of the body in the virtual reality based on data collected by a sensor included in the core.
