The virtual reality. We pass the game. No, really - we pass with our feet
A couple of years ago, a friend of mine looked into my house and said with burning eyes: “A brilliant idea struck me! And what if you make control in computer games not with your hands, as usual, but with your feet? ”
After some time, the idea turned into iron and became a very interesting system, which may be a salvation for parents whose children spend days in toys and are not physically involved at all.
In order not to talk for long - see for yourself.

The system has the working title SIT - Sports Gaming Simulator or CAPS - Computer Athletic Playing Simulator
The material embodiment is quite simple. However, everything genius, as always, is simple :) The usual orbitrek simulator is taken as a basis. To it was designed software and hardware unit that provides a combination of a simulator and a computer. Through USB, this whole machine connects to the computer, the game starts, the control responsible for the movement is redirected to the joystick and go! To simplify this process, external scripts are created with templates for the most popular games.
The simplest version of the system is the simulator itself connected to a computer, and the keyboard with the mouse next to it on a special shelf. Cheap and angry.
But the idea always goes forward, and in the future the Wii controller was connected and adapted to the system, which allowed to play without using the keyboard. This is much more fun!
The video shows the most advanced "high-end" development, where the player is fully immersed in the virtual world using cyber-glasses.
In general, while I will be brief. If you have questions, ask, try to tell you what I can.
Yes, in order to avoid misunderstandings - the author is not me. The system developer is my friend. For a year now we have been trying to bring this development to the general public, but so far fortune is turning to us with not the most pleasant parts of the body. Crisis or whatever ...
A little more information and some other video materials can be viewed on the project website. (Only please, not all at once, there the evil hoster likes to ban an account under high load).
