Tongue control for movement ! (Concept)

When I first watched a video about Oculus Rift on youtube, one thing did not feel right, that is using a xbox controller for foot movement, seemed kinda weird to me !

So how about using tongue movement inside mouth of user for controlling movement in the Virtual World !
Well, the hardware is pretty simple, using an "Ultrasonic Doppler Transceiver" module in Oculus Rift to pick up gamer's tongue movement and transform it into virtual motion !

  • not my bag, but some people might like it, seems a bit icky to me and not being able to talk would be an issue.

    I know absolutely nothing about "Ultrasonic Doppler Transceivers", but a tongue control could be something extremely valuable for tetraplegics to enjoy VR.
