Remember the handlebar controllers on the Paperboy arcade machines? You really felt like you were controlling that cartoony bike on the screen, right? Well, what if you had a whole bike that you had to pedal to play an updated version of that classic game? Itâd basically look like PaperDude VR.
PaperDude VRâthe creation of digital design shop Globacoreâuses a Kickr bike sensor to send data about speed to an iPad running the app and a Kinect picks up the playerâs throwing motions. Itâs not quite as hard as the original Paperboy but looks like itâd be a very fun workout. This probably wonât ever be a commercial product but Iâd love to try it out.
