Sony's New Patents Predicts Your Moves and Turns the PS5 Controller Into a Gun

Sony's latest patent filings hint at exciting innovations designed to enhance the PlayStation 5 gaming experience. These include an AI-powered camera system and a realistic gun trigger attachment for the DualSense controller.

Two Groundbreaking Sony Patents

AI-Powered Lag Reduction: Predicting Your Moves

Sony's New Patents Predicts Your Moves and Turns the PS5 Controller Into a Gun

Sony's "Timed Input/Action Release" patent describes a camera system that analyzes player movements and controller inputs using AI to predict upcoming actions. This predictive technology aims to minimize lag in online games by anticipating player inputs and pre-processing them. The system could also interpret partial controller actions, inferring the player's intent. This proactive approach promises smoother, more responsive gameplay.

Enhanced Gunplay Realism: A DualSense Trigger Attachment

Another notable patent details a trigger attachment for the DualSense controller, designed to significantly enhance the realism of in-game gunfights. Players would hold the controller sideways, mimicking a firearm grip, using the space between the R1 and R2 buttons as the sight. Pulling the trigger would simulate firing, adding a new level of immersion to FPS and action-adventure games. The patent suggests compatibility with the PSVR2 headset, further expanding its potential applications.

Sony's Patent Portfolio and Future Possibilities

This isn't Sony's first foray into innovative gaming technology. With a vast patent library (78% of its 95,533 patents remain active), Sony has explored concepts ranging from skill-adaptive difficulty to temperature-changing controllers. While patent filings don't guarantee product release, these latest innovations suggest Sony's continued commitment to pushing the boundaries of interactive entertainment. Only time will reveal which of these concepts will transition from patent to reality.
