Overview

A Remote Tag Sensor is a variant of the Tag Sensor introduced in the LittleBigPlanet 2: Cross-Controller Pack, and later included as part of the default toolset in LittleBigPlanet 3. It is used to detect any matching Tags that are currently loaded in memory, regardless of their location in the scene.

Usage and behaviour

The Remote Tag Sensor functions very similarly to the Tag Sensor, with the key difference being that it lacks a trigger radius; any matching Tag, no matter where it is in the scene, will activate it.

The sensor was initially introduced to detect Tags on both PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita systems, allowing the two systems to communicate with each other. For example, a blue Tag activated on the PlayStation 3 could be picked up by a sensor on the PlayStation Vita, activating a red Tag that could be picked up by the PlayStation 3. It has since seen use as a means of wirelessly transmitting signals throughout Dynamic Thermometer levels in LittleBigPlanet 3, as the lack of a trigger radius means it does not create unnecessarily large loading zones.

The Remote Tag Sensor has one output, which outputs both a digital ON signal if a matching Tag is loaded and active, as well as an analogue signal representing the Tag's signal strength. If multiple matching Tags loaded, the sensor will output whichever one has the strongest signal, positive or negative.
