From the Apple TV remote control, talking about how to play the living room game

For most people, the protagonist of Apple's fall conference will always be large products such as the iPhone and iPad, so the supporting role is easily overlooked. However, some supporting roles are not simple. At the just-concluded Apple conference, everyone expressed full interest in the new Apple TV. However, everyone can pay attention to it. In fact, Apple TV remote control has great mysteries. This tiny remote control not only introduces Siri voice control features, but also can lead to deeper content - living room games.


On the surface it is a remote control and it does not matter. However, it not only has traditional menu buttons, but also incorporates glass touch panels, Siri buttons, built-in accelerators, and gyroscopes, which is not easy. From the presentation at the press conference, this remote control can be turned into a somatosensory remote control. It's easy to play baseball and other hitting games. You can also use the remote's touch panel to control the Crossy Road game. The remote controller, like a professional gamepad, provides users with a powerful gaming experience.

From the Apple TV's substantially updated content, we can also find that this time specifically provides the App Store, and the game is relatively heavy. In addition, developers have discovered that Apple has clearly stated in its latest programming guide that games developed for Apple TVOS must provide support for Apple TV remote controls and must not require the use of a controller to play games. In other words, if you want to develop a game for TVOS, then you must support the touch and somatosensory control of the Apple TV remote control.

So why did Apple launch a powerful Apple TV remote control, and why did TVOS game developers impose such demanding requirements? Obviously, Apple is telling us that the living room game will become another strategic layout of Apple. At present, although the emergence of smart TVs and TV boxes is rich and enhances the entertainment of living room games, there is no TV maker or third-party manufacturer that can occupy a high share in this industry. Apple will rely on its large user base and brand. Influential, it quickly grabs a place in the television-based living room game and occupies a share.

Compared with the use of mobile phones, tablets, computers, etc. to play games, the biggest advantage of playing games on TV is that the screen is large, and you can better understand the shock of the game and bring it into a stronger sense. In fact, many domestic companies have already taken action in the living room game market. Millet, Baidu, 360, etc. have made hardware and software layouts in the living room games. Among them, 360 even merged the gaming division with the TV game department last year, considering the key development in the living room game. In addition, some software vendors who have seen opportunities have begun to think about APP applications. For example, Pepper Chipping is a good software that can move mobile games to TV screens.

At present, with the development of smart phones and the extension of their functions, a very clear trend is that mobile phones have been increasingly considered for applications in remote control, such as controlling homes and appliances. Therefore, taking the mobile phone as the core, connecting the smart TV directly, or using the box to achieve the connection with the TV screen may be a good development direction of the living room game.

However, the development of living room games is still in a stage that needs continuous improvement and reinforcement. During this period, not only hardware support but also more software developers are required to join. So, looking back at Apple, its layout and layout of the game's APP app on the TV's App Store are highlighted.

At present in China, basically the world of mobile games, the reason why living room games have not yet been effectively expanded, the main reason is due to the limitations of game applications, development companies have not done a large area to adapt to the operation of the TV and do the corresponding function Migration development, which also explains why Apple will put forward many demanding requirements for game developers.

Fortunately, software such as hot peppers is making up for these gaps and brings a good user experience. As already mentioned above, the chili peppers can be used to move mobile games to the TV screen. The implementation is very simple, users only need to download and install the hot pepper tapping APP on the mobile phone, smart TV or smart box, without using other equipment, they can use the mobile phone as a handle to experience the charm of the game on the TV.

Because the smart phone itself comes with hardware such as gravity sensor, gyroscope, touch, microphone, camera, etc., it can successfully replace the commonly used game controller, and the function is much richer than the Apple TV remote controller. Based on the strong support of the hardware function of the mobile phone itself, Chili Paoda also introduced the “realistic control” technology, which is an upgraded version of the somatosensory game that has been promoted by the smart TV industry. What's even more rare is that this kind of simulating control of chili peppers does not modify the game program. This allows players to enjoy their favorite games on TV. Under the premise of not modifying the game, the peppers will play a better experience in the game rendering. With the help of 3D TV or VR helmets, some popular games, such as "Riptide Speed ​​Boat" and "Wild Racing", can exhibit three-dimensional three-dimensional The effect brings more realistic and exciting game effects.

Since television's main function was to create entertainment, and games play a large part in entertainment, manufacturers have long realized this. Nowadays, although video games have advantages in terms of perception and somatosensory, the game software developed for them has a great gap. Therefore, all manufacturers must not only strive to solve the problems in the basic hardware, but also should think of ways to enrich the game software. Believe that with Apple's layout in this area, will drive more hardware and software vendors to join.

A living room game, a market that is not new or will be detonated because of this ordinary remote control.


We are professional manufacturor more than 10 years providing high brightness, waterproof, dustyproof Outdoor Full color Led Display , which is widely is used in the outdoor environment such as outdoor advertisement, Stadium, Airport, Traffic system, Hopspital, Hotel, Market, etc. The application environment of Outdoor LED Display is normally much worse than the Indoor LED Display. The material & quality standard is also higher than the Indoor Led Display . We provide all series of Outdoor Fixed LED Display models: P3.91mm, P4mm, P4.81mm, P5mm, P6mm, P8mm, P10mm, P15mm, P16mm, P20mm. Since more and more customers prefer higher resolution to improve the video quality, outdoor HD series of P3.91mm, P4mm, P4.81mm, P5mm, P6mm become popular models. In any case, the use of digital video outdoor LED screens from JOYLED LED Screens signifies a brand new stage of development in the area of outdoor advertising. A number of articles have already discussed the strengths of presenting information on LED (Light Emitting Diode) monitors versus the static outdoor stands. The size of the Outdoor Led Screen displays and LED signs are very important to know to determine the resolution per square meter we have to set for the screen. This is to avoid low quality video with very little detail or a very high quality video that is not necessary (in some cases it depends on the customer´s project type). The variable that decides the LED screen resolution per square meter is called the pixel pitch, which tells us the distance between the LED´s in millimeters. The shorter the distance of the LED´s, the higher the screen resolution per square meter, and a greater distance, the resolution will be less. Our full color outdoor LED screens can be divided into two types of groups, which are: Integrated 3in1 SMD LED chips based outdoor LED screens & Dip LED Chips (Oval LED Chips) based outdoor LED screens
