How did Duck Hunt for the NES know where you were pointing the gun?
In: 7118
The gun have a light sensor which is able to see the brightness of whatever you are pointing at. When you push the trigger the screen will momentarily flash a test pattern. The hitbox would be white and the rest of the scene would be black. By reading the data from the light sensor the NES is able to determine if you points at the hitbox or not.
