Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- detecting, in an interactive gaming experience, orientation of a physical document via a document reader, the document comprising a map;
projecting information onto said document via said document reader wherein the manner in which the information is projected is based, at least in part, on said detected orientation, the document comprising a sheet of media having fixed information depicted thereon, the manner in which the information is projected being based on aligning the projected information with the fixed information;
identifying a user of the document based, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with the document; and
presenting media content to the identified user based, at least in part, on the identification.

7. A method comprising:
-
detecting, in an interactive gaming experience, presence of a physical document via a document reader; altering an appearance of the document to present information based, at least in part, on said detected presence; sensing an orientation of the document; altering the appearance of the document based, at least in part, on the sensed orientation identifying a user of the document based, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with the document; and altering the appearance of the document, at least in part, on the identification of said user.

8. An interactive document reader, comprising:
-
a document sensor indicating presence of a physical document in an interactive gaming experience; an orientation sensor indicating orientation of the sensed document; and a projector displaying information on the document in a manner that is based, at least in part, on the indications from the document sensor and the orientation sensor, wherein a user of the document is identified, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with the document, wherein media content is presented to the identified user based, at least in part, on the identification. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. An apparatus, comprising:
-
means for detecting, in an interactive gaming experience, a presence of one or more physical documents; and means for altering an appearance of the document to present a special effect based, at least in part, on said detected presence means for sensing an orientation of the document; means for altering the appearance of the document based, at least in part, on the sensed orientation means for identifying a user of the document based, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with the document; and means for altering the appearance of the document, at least in part, on the identification of said user.

14. An interactive document, comprising:
-
a sheet of media having a first portion information depicted thereon, wherein placement of the first portion of the information has a suitable orientation and arrangement; a device on the sheet of media configured to communicate the orientation of the sheet of media to an external interactive document reader in an interactive gaming experience; and a projection surface integrated with the sheet of media, wherein appearance of the sheet of media is alterable to present a second portion of information projected by the external interactive document reader to the projection surface, wherein the second portion of information is projected in alignment with the first portion of information, wherein a user of the sheet of media is identified, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with the sheet of media, wherein media content is presented to the identified user based, at least in part, on the identification.

15. A method comprising:
-
detecting, in an interactive gaming experience, orientation of a physical document via a document reader; and projecting information onto said document via said document reader wherein the manner in which the information is projected is based, at least in part, on said detected orientation, said document comprising a sheet of media having fixed information depicted thereon, the manner in which the information is projected being based on aligning the projected information with the fixed information; identifying a user of said document based, at least in part, on detection of a signature associated with said document; and presenting media content to said identified user based, at least in part, on said identification. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
