    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view_in_video_games

    Many PC games that are released after 2000 are ported from consoles, or developed for both console and PC platforms. Ideally, the developer will set a wider FOV in the PC release, or offer a setting to change the FOV to the player's preference. However, in many cases the narrow FOV of the console release is retained in the PC version.

  3. Computer mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_mouse

    A computer mouse (plural mice, also mouses) [nb 1] is a hand-held pointing device that detects two-dimensional motion relative to a surface. This motion is typically translated into the motion of the pointer (called a cursor) on a display, which allows a smooth control of the graphical user interface of a computer. The first public ...

    Mouse Practice was released with the classic Mac OS from System 6 to Mac OS 9, designed to operate on the Motorola 68k architecture. The software can also run on some other systems by way of an emulator. [1] Mouse Practice was a default inclusion in the simplified At Ease graphical user interface (GUI).

    FOV both eyes Vertical FOV Angle of view can be measured horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. The field of view (FOV) is the angular extent of the observable world that is seen at any given moment. In the case of optical instruments or sensors, it is a solid angle through which a detector is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.

  7. Mouse tracking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mouse_tracking

    Mouse tracking (also known as cursor tracking) is the use of software to collect users' mouse cursor positions on the computer. [1] This goal is to automatically gather richer information about what people are doing, typically to improve the design of an interface. Often this is done on the Web and can supplement eye tracking in some situations.

  8. Optical mouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_mouse

    An optical mouse is a computer mouse which uses a light source, typically a light-emitting diode (LED), and a light detector, such as an array of photodiodes, to detect movement relative to a surface. Variations of the optical mouse have largely replaced the older mechanical mouse design, which uses moving parts to sense motion.

  9. Isometric video game graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_video_game_graphics

    Because parallel projected objects do not change in size as they move about an area, there is no need for the computer to scale sprites or do the complex calculations necessary to simulate visual perspective. This allowed 8-bit and 16-bit game systems (and, more recently, handheld and mobile systems) to portray large game areas quickly and easily.
