Posted on November 28, 2009 by Jeffrey Newman

The video game industry is about to launch an evolved technology of augmented reality, use of holographs and an alteration of the controller so that the player’s whole body becomes the controller. Microsoft, maker of the x-box 360 is preparing a full body gaming experience with total immersion and motion and touch sensors, allowing the gamer to experience the feeling of being struck or shot in war games. In addition, the new technologies are expected to spawn an unprecedented experience in physical training and competition where the player is surrounded by computer generated images in a holographic environment, according to Steve Koenig, Director of Industry Analysis of the Consumer Electronics Association.
