An object of the invention is to provide an inertial sensor with small delay and high accuracy. An inertial sensorincludes an acceleration detecting elementthat detects an acceleration of at least one axis of a vehicle; a first filterthat limits a detection signal of the acceleration to a first band; a second filterthat limits a detection signal of the acceleration to a second band; a vehicle control variable calculation sectionthat calculates a vehicle control variable Gon the basis of the detection signal of the acceleration limited to the second band; and a sensor signal output sectionthat outputs the detection signal of the acceleration limited to the first band and the vehicle control variable.

[Problems] Unfair operation of 'hand-push' is effectively handled. [Means for Solving Problems] It is judged whether a pressure continues for not less than a predetermined time or not, that is, it is judged whether there is possibility of hand-push or not. When the pressure continues for not less than a predetermined time, it is decided that there is a possibility of hand-push.

Game device, game system and game program

A ranking determination system is provided which can make all the game participants ranking-conscious and eager to play again, even if it is a widely popular game played by a large number of people. In the system wherein results of a game played in multiple game machines are collected through a communication network for ranking purposes, the ranking chart has several levels, each level consisting of one or more groups having a preset number of teams, each team being allocated a region for storing one or more sets of player information. The system is configured such that respective teams of players are ranked based on the game results of their member players.

Games are processed in a more realistic and immediate manner during image processing for soccer games and the like. Specifically, the movements of characters more accurately simulate those of actual opponents, resulting in greater game realism. The invention is an image processing device for imaging and displaying the behavior of characters modeled on opponents in virtual three-dimensional space. It is determined (Sto S) whether or not there exists a certain situation in which the relation to the game contents (in the centering area, for example) or the positional relation (such as distance) between characters and a target (such as opponent characters or the ball) having a relation through the game to said characters matches certain conditions, and the eyes of the characters are directed to the target (S, S, S, etc.) when it is determined that the certain situation exists. The invention is especially suitable for soccer games.

Image processing device and image processing method

An image processing device for realizing more realistic pictures of explosions in video game devices and the like. Objects displaying such pictures of explosions are formed of spherical polygons (R, R, R, . . . ) and planar polygons (S, S, S, . . . ). Pictures of explosions are realized by alternately arranging these spherical polygons and planar polygons with the lapse in time. Preferably, pictures of polygons are realized by arranging the spherical polygons in layers on the boundary of the planar polygons.

An image processing device for realizing more realistic pictures of explosions in video game devices as well as other devices. Objects displaying such pictures of explosions are formed of spherical polygons (R, R, R, . . . ) and planar polygons (S, S, S, . . . ). Pictures of explosions are realized by alternately arranging these spherical polygons and planar polygons with the lapse in time. Preferably, pictures of polygons are realized by arranging the spherical polygons in layers on the boundary of the planar polygons.

A microcomputer with a built-in non-volatile semiconductor memory, which can automatically perform a work of temporarily interrupting automatic writing or automatic erase and accepting an interruption process when an interruption occurs during the automatic writing or automatic erase by using an interrupt request signal for a microcomputer as an external input for controlling automatic writing or automatic erase of a flash memory.

An image in which an enemy moving in the game space of a gun game is acquired from a movable camera viewpoint in the space is generated. A control means (steps Sand S&#x2013;S) which controls the movement of the camera viewpoint by using the positional relation between a viewed point determined in relation to the enemy and the line of sight of the present camera viewpoint for every image frame is provided. The means judges the specific moving state of the camera viewpoint, moves the camera viewpoint while the line of sight is fixed, calculates the angle between the direction from the camera viewpoint toward the viewed point and the direction of the line of sight of the camera viewpoint before it is moved, and turns the camera viewpoint to the viewed point in accordance with the calculated angle.

Preferably, pictures of polygons are realized by arranging the spherical polygons in layers on the boundary of the planar polygons.

A capacitor charger is provided that can control charging voltage with high accuracy, and repeat a process of increasing it to a target charging voltage at high speed. In a first step, an ac voltage is generated in a resonant type inverter section by fixed frequency driving pulses, the ac voltage is converted to a dc voltage, a load capacitor is charged by the dc voltage, a calculation pulse in the driving pulse has a predetermined, fixed driving pulse width, and the load capacitor is charged by &Dgr;Vn each pulse. In a second step, when the charging voltage V of the load capacitor and the target voltage V satisfy an inequality relationship &ldquo;V >V >V &minus;&Dgr;Vn&rdquo;, charging is performed by a single or a plurality of final pulses having a driving pulse width W (W >W ) as required to step up the voltage by &ldquo;V &minus;V
