For the Gamers

I'm not a gamer :headsetsmiley: so this may be old news for the hardcore in the crowd.

A friend of mine sent me a video describing the TrackIR.

It's device that tracks your head movements and translates them into movements in the game. For instance, while in a flight simulation, instead of pressing a key to change your external view, you can simply move your head. Better still, you can lean in, out, left or right and the movement is reflected in the game.

to the video describing the TrackIR and it's use. Linky to the manufacturer's site.

Pretty cool stuff.

Cool...I wonder when they are going to come out with sensors to hook up to "other" parts of the body.

LOL I was thinking that miniaturization technology would be there before too long.

It has it's limitations. Can be hard to get set just right, and needs a lot of monitor, as well as being somewhat of a power hog.
