It would be great to be able to walk in games without an any additional equipments like treadmill.
I think it is possible to achieve it with software upgrade. This is how I see it:
First, user creates boundary witch would have regular shape (rectangle), the initial position of user will be in the center of the rectangle. Regular shape of boundary could simplify tracking user's position. If user reaches the limit of boundary then he should just turn 180 degree, push the button on the controller so the view will turn the same, and the user will be able to continue walking forward
What do you thing about this idea, is it doable for facebook?
It sounds like you need to play Happy Run, the locomotion just kind of jogging in place like naturally not some weird gorilla tag style will blow your mind. Also impossible spaces are able to achieve the thing that you're looking for as well there are some great examples of it try infinite inside and tea for god and that Indiana Jones looking one
Have you tried Happy Run? Or Tea for God? Or Infinite Inside? There is an Indiana Jones lookalike too that you should look into.
Happy run is the only app that has gotten the physics right jogging in place. As far as i'm concerned, it's perfection. As for the other ones i've mentioned, you might be interested in learning about the concept of impossible spaces
