The Oculus biosphere is taking shape

[HagarTheHorrible]

I'm just imagining this in a DCS cockpit.  It's far from perfect, but it's better than scrabbling around for a mouse to click on buttons and the fact that the Leap motion developers are going all out for integration is also good news.

Never found myself scrabbling around for the mouse, it's always in the same place, the downside to the leap motion thing is the lack of tactile feedback.

Add electrical nodes to your finger tips that give you a little zap or vibration :D!

I think I've said this before: Once we have the perfect virtual reality, motion capture suit with force feedback, we'll all be too busy playing pornographic games to develop its use in flight sims.

Good grief if I had that mullet and dodgy mustache I'd me trying to hide in a virtual world too.

If I remember right leapmotion isn't even close to be accurate enough to be used with clickpits.

how about putting magnets in the gloves and using electromagnets in a surface giving the right impulses

 

Strangely I find this has some credibility, I had a similar idea, magnets can reject each other as well as attract, that reject force could work for tactile feedback, wouldn't bother with an external surface though, the gloves would simply be full of tiny solenoids that push into the skin to replicate touch.......sounds nicer than electric shocks.

 

 

 

or even a better induce a virtual reality while sleeping

 

Thankfully the world has not imploded and everything is normal, as usual we have a pointless concept from raaaid, I like to sleep during sleep.

That is seriously freaking cool!!!!! If they can get the resolution up and the weight down I would easily drop a grand or more if it worked great and didn't give me migraines.

i for one am perfectly happy with the separation between fake and real world, thank you very much.

Which is absolutely fine, there are always some who chose to be left behind, though I'm not entirely sure how any of this actually breaks that separation.
