I’m wondering if I wanted to fly a jet, would I need another sensor for 3 dimensional tracking

rollin@piefed.social 1 day agoIt seems to only have an Arduino as processor, so presumably the former i.e. you need a PC to plug this into. It seems to have highly simplified tracking compared to something like a Quest - a single Inertial Measurement Unit. All enough for sim racing which is this guy’s jam, but I wonder how well the tracking stays calibrated.

The critical thing with these is response time. If it’s even slightly too high (I think 20-30ms is easily too high), some/many people get very motion sick. Getting that time down as low as needed is also not trivial.

I bet I could use it. I can play the VirtualBoy in a moving car. If there’s any kind of way to tie it into MechWarrior, I want to build one.

Normal video games can make me motion sick so I can only imagine how bad this might be! Maybe in the future it’ll get better!
