I'm aware? Did you read my post correctly? I never said they used IR (read post for full explanation here). I said the they said Wiimote uses IR for positioning purposes and that's total bull. It's a beam of light. Also ultrasonic? If it's doing what I think it's doing, I hope no one has a dog/cat/or heaing sensative animal in the house - hell if may even give a human headaches after a while. Using ultrasonic for positioning instead of a gyroscope makes it silent to humans sure I guess though. But I've got to see it in action, I want to see how they can find it's location in relation to the body when people have different body masses, can lay down on a bad and play or sit in a chair. @OP |
i did some courses on virtual reality at university and some of the most advanced movemnet and and position tracking systems that are used in professional applications are based on ultrasonic. it gives a very precise positioning and movement tracking method, but those systems are all in the 10k-100k$ price range so no idea how good a sub 100$ version based on this can do.
