Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0045250A2] Disclosed is an interactive entertainment system. The system includes a base (104) that represents an entertainment device, a physical sensor object (106) that is separate from the base, a detector (102) arranged to detect the presence, location and identity of the sensor object relative to the base, and an interactive audiovisual program (112) configured to output audiovisual segments related to the entertainment device represented by the base. Detection of the physical sensor object causes the interactive audiovisual program to output an audiovisual segment that is based at least in part upon the detected position of the sensor object relative to the base and that includes information that is not visible on the base but which is deemed detectable by the sensor object.
