Abstract
A video game has a plurality of gaming image frames for displaying gaming images of the video game, and a plurality of crosshair navigation frames interleaved among the gaming image frames. During gameplay of the video game, an optical projection of the gaming image frames and the crosshair navigation frames are video captured whereby a crosshair position is navigated within the display of the gaming images of the video game based on a cross-correlation of the video capture of two or more of the crosshair navigation frames.
