Check Out This Incredible Oculus Rift Lightsaber Demo
Peter Donnell / 10 years ago
Oculus Rift has already proven to be a great tool for developers, especially when it comes to creating impressive and innovative experiences. One user has not only taken the rift, but also what we believe to be 12 Flex 13 Optitrack cameras, which you can expect to set you back almost $15,000!
Of course not everyone has advanced motion capture software at their disposal, which is a shame because that could be freaking awesome for gaming and would make Kinect look as useful as a rock in comparison. The technology we see used in the video is expensive, but that’s not to say that this tech demo couldn’t be re-purposed to something more affordable, or even as a larger set up at your local arcade.
So, have you ever wondered what it would be like to wield a lightsaber against a laser wielding, rocket throwing robot? Check out the video below.
