09:32 | 09:32 < parag0n> awesome | ||
09:32 | 09:32 < srimech> Needs weapons | ||
09:32 | 09:32 < parag0n> i wonder if you could get the latency low enough to play ti over the internet | ||
09:32 | 09:32 < srimech> parag0n: That's something I've thought about doing before | ||
09:33 | 09:33 < srimech> ADSL upstream wasn't good enough at the time to stream much video but it has improved since then | ||

09:34 | 09:34 < earthshine> cool | ||
09:38 | 09:38 < parag0n> you could add two cameras, one in the driver's position, on in a third-person-view looking over | ||
the car's 'shoulder' | the car's 'shoulder' | ||
09:39 | 09:39 < parag0n> for the screen, use a HMD with tilt / rotation sensors | ||
09:39 | 09:39 < parag0n> that way you can put the driver camera on a pan / tilt header | ||
09:39 | 09:39 < parag0n> and look around :D | ||
09:39 | 09:39 < elliot_w> bigger space or smaller car required :-) | ||
09:40 | 09:40 < srimech> You don't normally have time to admire the scenery in Wipeout :) | ||
09:46 | 09:46 < artag> elliot_w: you could have a track at ceiling height. Or even in the ceiling space. | ||
09:47 | 09:47 < elliot_w> omg! | ||
09:48 | 09:48 < srimech> A track would kind of ruin the driving experience, wouldn't it? | ||
09:48 | 09:48 < srimech> Oh wait, I see what you mean | ||
09:48 | 09:48 < srimech> Actually, ceiling space would be even better as you could control the lighting | ||
09:49 | 09:49 < parag0n> you'd have to be able to get to it to flip the car up | ||
09:49 | 09:49 < parag0n> unless you used a srimech | ||
09:49 | 09:49 < parag0n> :P | ||
09:49 | 09:49 < srimech> hehe | ||
09:49 | 09:49 < srimech> But Wipeout has little flying robots that put the craft back on the track, they should be | ||

09:53 | 09:53 < parag0n> make the bots 3" tall, with wheels on each side | ||
09:53 | 09:53 < parag0n> just big enough for 2 to pass, but whichever way they flip they can self-right | ||
09:53 | 09:53 < artag> nice | ||
09:54 | 09:54 < artag> you could drive them upside down but the direction would be reversed | ||
