‘Motion-sensing Pad May Have Rumble Feature’ – eDimensional
Immersion Corporation, the technology firm that sued and won against Sony for illegal use of their ‘haptic’ (rumble technologies, has already commented on Sony’s announcement that the PlayStation 3 DualShock will not have a rumble feature due its possible interference on the controller’s six axis motion-sensing controller. Now, it’s eDimensional‘s turn to dish out a commentary.
eDimensional is a gaming accessory manufacturer. Like Immersion, they believe that the combination of a touch feedback and motion-sensing is possible. They claim that they are currently working on a G-Pad Pro Gyroscopic controller for PC and PS2, which will make use of both Impression’s “advanced vibri-tactile, spinning-mass gaming technologies” and the virtual reality motion-sensing technology.
If they do come up with such a device, then can Immersion representative Mark Belinsky be correct when he said that “there is more to the story than Sony is telling us”? I guess we can not tell for now. Let us all wait until this eDimensional controller comes out and see the combination of the two technologies realized.
