Virtual Reality RC Car

Don a set of video goggles, and drive this RC car from the perspective of the driver. The camera embedded in the car tracks your head movements, so when you look right the camera looks right. There was a video circulating of something similar to this with a RC plane, but this is the first commercial implementation of the concept I have seen.

Amazingly, the goggles can also track your head’s motion, where the camera on the buggy will respond accordingly, letting you look left, right, up and down. … Such a toy won’t come cheap though, as it retails for a whopping $1,172.

    wouldn’t you look like a total dork moving your head all around? I would love to see someone demo this tho. but for that kind of price tag, i doubt many folks would be willing to get this thing.
