its the same though, sensor or camera.




What a strange graph. Gyrometer gives the absolute orientation, its reliable and predictable as well as having a low latency. Im not saying the Razer controller doesnt do it faster though. Also, it says they are comparing the types of 3D controller. Thats some big bulls*** since the 3D controllers on the market (Move, Wiimote, Kinect) all use more than 1 technology.

the chart covers that... camera covers PS Eye or Kinect by itself. Added gyro covers Move controller addition. Accelerometer gyro covers Wii Motion Plus. Ultrasonic... I guess Kinect too? Which really
falls perfectly into that chart. The chart covers each individual technology. Combining them gives some improvement with additional cost (like Move which has a $40 controller with a $40 camera plus the need sometimes for a second controller for absolute control).

You didnt get my point. The title is: "contrasting the different types of 3D controllers". None of those, beside their magnetic controller, is a type of controller.

PlayStation 3's Sixaxis and DualShock 3 = Accelerometer. issue: vastly limited motion control

Wii Remote without Plus = Gyro, With Plus Accelerometer Gyro. Issues: Motion Tracking accuracy

EyeToy PS Eye = Camera. Issues: range and motion tracking.

Move PS Eye = Camera with Gyro (accelerometer isnt needed really here) issue: limited range of motion, easily blocked

Ultrasonic = ? Im not sure, I want to say Kinect due to the voice control but idk really. issue: no idea

Kinect doesnt even has part of its technology in it (depth sensor). In any case, I still have the feeling you didnt get my point. I know you can mix those technologies in order to make one of the 3D controllers. The point is, accelerometer and ultrasonic by themselves doesnt represent any controller on the market. Yet their graph name is "contrasting the different types of 3D controller". Beside "magnetic" and "camera" (eyetoy) those arent types of 3D controllers. Once again, im not saying the product isnt good, I just hate misrepresentation.
