Full-Body Force-Feedback Simulator
Hi everyone, I would like to introduce our project as we are getting ready to publish more information about it and thought the best place to share it before we go live would be here and hopeful...
Now that I browsed the web site, I see that WAF is probably not a concern. Unlike the video above that looks to me like it COULD fit in a house, this photo from the web site shows a completely different perceived sense of scale:
This looks much more like a theme park amusement ride than something that would fit in a house, or even in a VR arcade.
However, this looks like a different model from the one in the above video, which raises more questions:
Do these come in different sizes? And what is the load capacity? How much power consumption? What lubrication requirements? What is the recommended maintenance schedule? How often is the required periodic safety inspection? How must this be anchored to the floor for a realistic safety margin beyond its recommended load-bearing capacity? What games is this simulator compatible with, and does it come with driver software and game-configuration utilities?
I am sure that other forum members have questions too. You have certainly gotten our attention, and our interest.
;)
