Storage medium storing information processing program, information processing apparatus and information processing method
First Claim
1. A non-transitory storage medium storing an information processing program configured, when executed, to cause 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 detector configured to detect a status including at least one of a position and an attitude of an input device to perform functionality comprising at least:
- control said object such that said object performs a first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal,determine whether or not information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition during when said object is controlled to perform said first motion within said virtual space, andcontrol said object such that said object performs a second motion different from said first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal in a case that the information relative to a magnitude of said status signal is determined to satisfy the 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.

13. 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 detector configured to detect a status including at least one of a position and an attitude of an input device, comprising:
-
a first motion controller configured to control said object such that said object performs a first motion within said virtual space on the basis of said status signal, a condition determining circuit configured to determine whether or not information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies a predetermined condition during when said object is controlled to perform said first motion within said virtual space, and a second motion controller configured to control said object such that said object 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 circuit determines that the information relative to a magnitude of said status signal satisfies the predetermined condition.
