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? Itād basically look like PaperDude VR.
PaperDude VRāthe creation of digital design shop Globacoreāuses a Kickr bike sensor to send data about speed to an iPad running the app and a Kinect picks up the playerās throwing motions. Itās not quite as hard as the original Paperboy but looks like itād be a very fun workout. This probably wonāt ever be a commercial product but Iād love to try it out.
