Doom 3 + Positional Tracking

Post by Krenzo »

I saw this video over at Rock Paper Shotgun. He shows off his implementation of positional tracking in Doom 3 using an ultrasonic hand tracker and the Kinect, and he covers a lot of interesting points on the advantages and challenges of implementing position tracking.

That isn't in Doom 3, it is just using some of the map data.

That video is from Doc Ok who participates in the Oculus Rift forum. He has some great VR stuff at his website.
