Now consoles aren’t the only gaming systems with motion controls. Razer’s Hydra controller brings the joy of waving your controller around to your PC. It’s powered by Sixsense’s Truemotion technology, which uses a magnetic field to detect the movements of the controller.
As VentureBeat’s Dean Takahashi explains it: “The system has a base magnet that connects to your game PC and a couple of handheld controllers that you use to maneuver through the game. The net result is that it gives a player ’six degrees of freedom’ for controlling a game. In that sense, it’s a lot like Sony’s Move controllers for the PlayStation 3. The price of the Hydra is expected to be under $100 but isn’t final yet.”
The controller will also be featured in a special Portal 2 bundle later this year.
