Carrier landing in Full Motion Flight Simulator, VR

Pretty cool. I did consider doing something like that. I didn't think it would work though because the used of accelerometers in VR headsets for Tracking.

I see there solution for camera tracking is just to have a white wall in front of the whole setup. That way from the point of view of the Headset camera's the motion platform is not moving at all. Very good!

I just saw a more practical solution. In the NY Pimax Road Show there is a Playseat that can do some degree of motion. In combination with Pimax 8KX this could be a blast. You can watch it from 33:35

The white wall has nothing to do with it. Camera tracked headsets are far too advanced to be fooled by something as simple as that as there are so many other points to track with. The headset used uses lighthouses for tracking anyway and they had to use some software to cancel out the motion.

If you want to know more here is a link to a post with more info and hardware details.

I'm always surprised how many people splurge for these type of rigs, though I get the impression that (except for racing simmers) it's mostly a euro thing.

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.
