Sony's New Motion Control Device

Not to be outdone by Microsoft, Sony also unveiled a motion capture device as an extension of the "Eye Toy".

Sony still stuck with a "controller", but it is unique in the fact that the wand changes to different objects on the screen.

A little less exciting that what Microsoft is proposing, but still interesting.

Microsoft's Project Natal - Official Video

An official preview of the technology, illustrating it's potential.

Microsoft's Project Natal

Microsoft recently unveiled their answer to Nintendo's Wii at this year's E3. Project Natal allows a users to interact in a 3D environment without using a controller through a high definition camera and audio device.

Incredible potential for different uses when this is developed further.

Drivable Stretcher

Below is a simple drivable stretcher I made to try and get used to Garry's Mod (I still feel like quite a beginner). It was made without using wiremod, as I wanted to see if I could do it without using things like thrusters.

The video is both a demo on the finished model as well as a tutorial on how I made it.
