The Joys of Bio-Sensing in a Virtual Reality World
The world of Virtual Reality gaming has come to a threshold of revolutionary progress that is set to change forever how we view gaming.
So where does the science of Bio-Sensing fit into the equation?
Think of it as the holy grail of VR Gaming; the fuel in a Porsche; the mayonnaise on a Big Mac Burger and the two O’s in the word Cool! Simple put: bio-sensing means detecting a person’s presence in a game.
How?
These are small sensors that are connected to a data sensitive glove, suit, headgear or even the body. Their fundamental purpose is to intricately detect and record movements made by the user in a virtual 3D environment.
In Virtual Reality gaming, those particular movements are analysed and decoded by computer system. This triggers a wide array of relevant responses within 3D Virtual Reality environment.
For Example: If you wear a Data Glove connected to bio sensor technology and find yourself in the driver’s seat of a F1 Race car game, the sensors instantaneously record the very movements of your hands as part of this game, as in when turning the steering wheel in various directions.
The computer interprets and analyses the data recorded from these movements, while employing them to assist your specific actions into the necessary reactive responses on the VR screen.
Now we know, all this sounds kinda nerdy ( or ‘technical’ if we’re being politically correct ) but it is a revolutionary manner of detecting a player’s movements and gestures during a game-play, whilst utilizing the data to simply propagate and influence what’s happening in the game – in real time, 3D and Virtual Reality!
How neat is that?
Thus, ‘you’, the player, becomes a crucial aspect of the game experience. This is known as an ‘immersive experience’. If you have watched films such as ‘Minority Report’ starring Tom Cruise, you know what we’re talking about i.e. the concept of an individual exploring and interacting with various objects in a virtual reality set environment.
More and more industry giants in the gaming sector are coming up with relevant and VR based content and gaming titles to hop on the hot VR bandwagon.
For a truly immersive sensory experience, going beyond the visual means considering factors like sound design, tactile scenic components, and “4D” elements, such as vibration and artificial wind.
These are huge factors in taking full advantage of users’ senses.
