smirkza Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Evening all... Just stumbled across this new project that should be launching on kickstarter soon. Has anyone else seen it? Looks like a great idea (wish I'd thought of it). Some rough cost estimates floated about have been below $1000! That's pretty decent compared to the other systems out there. Plus, this has the potential to be true 360' rotation in all three axis. Nice! Feel Three Motion Could be magnificent with DCS! :D:thumbsup: N.B. (Posted here not in the rift thread as there is talk of being able to mount a screen instead for those who don't want VR :joystick:) Smirks Edited August 17, 2014 by smirkza Cheers, Smirkza
cichlidfan Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I have a lot of trouble believing the price will be under $1000 but it looks interesting.

aeliusg Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 I saw this over on the Star Citizen forum. He does daily updates on the blog part of his site, so you can see where he's going with it. Purely conceptual ATM, but it'll be awesome if he can pull it off.
frogger Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 does the oculus use accelrometer and gyros for some of the head tracking ? wouldnt this throw the tracking off ?
smirkza Posted August 15, 2014 Author Posted August 15, 2014 The seat has a built in giro that sorts that out, I think. Comes with software to figure position of rift in relation to seat instead of to the ground. Smirks Cheers, Smirkza
