Abstract
A self-propelled device determines an orientation for its movement based on a pre-determined reference frame. A controller device is operable by a user to control the self-propelled device. The controller device includes a user interface for controlling at least a direction of movement of the self-propelled device. The self-propelled device is configured to signal the controller device information that indicates the orientation of the self-propelled device. The controller device is configured to orient the user interface, based on the information signaled from the self-propelled device, to reflect the orientation of the self-propelled device.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A system comprising:
a self-propelled device, wherein the self-propelled device determines an orientation for its movement based on a pre-determined reference frame; a controller device operable by a user to control the self-propelled device, wherein the controller device includes a user interface for controlling at least a direction of movement of the self-propelled device; wherein the self-propelled device is configured to signal the controller device information that indicates the orientation of the self-propelled device; wherein the controller device is configured to orient the user interface, based on the information signaled from the self-propelled device, to reflect the orientation of the self-propelled device.Cited by (0)
