Sony Patent: DIRECTIONAL INPUT FOR A VIDEO GAME

In this patent 2 PlayStation Move controllers are used to track the direction of a Sharp Shooter like PlayStation Move Gun & also there is some images of what might be the PlayStation Vita or  just a screen mounted on the Gun so you can see your target even when it's off the TV screen.

The method initiates with capturing an image of a first object and a second object, the first object and the second object being defined at a fixed distance from each other.
