New kind of game experience almost for free!

Hello folks

Do you know what is TrackIr? If not, check it out. Kinda fun to have a free look around when playing. Especially if you like simulator games or 1st person shooters. TrackIr is quite expensive, so here's something for you: A link to freelook.org, which tells you how to make it almost without any cost. All you need is webcam and little led light. Have fun! (I did this and it works fine...)

Here is a video showing that something similar can be done with Wii.

The upcoming Boom Blox, game designed by Steven Spielberg for the Wii supports headtracking.

And it is rumoured that PS3 could support head tracking in the near future.

That's amazing! Just think about future games what they will be like. It would be sooo creepy to play like that with a movie screen!
