1. A method for filtering outputs of a sensor of a handheld video game controller, the method comprising:
- comparing, using a processing system, a current sensor output value with an average of multiple prior sensor output values; and
based on the comparing, generating, using the processing system, a filtered sensor value used as a video game input and which is in a range determined by the current sensor output value and a prior sensor output value.

Abstract
An example system and method is provided for filtering input values associated with movement of a hand-held control device. A current input value is compared with an average input value and, based on the comparing, an output value is generated in a range between the current input value and a prior output value.

15. A system for filtering output values of a sensor for a controller for a video game system, the system comprising:
-
a ring buffer for storing a plurality of prior sensor output values; and a processing system for determining an average of the sensor output values in the ring buffer, comparing a current sensor output value with the average sensor output value, generating, based on the comparing, a filtered sensor value which is in a range determined by the current sensor output value and a prior sensor output value and using the filtered sensor value as an input to a video game program executed by the processing system. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
