Virtuality (gaming)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other uses, see Virtuality (disambiguation).
Virtuality is a line of virtual reality gaming machines that could be found in arcades and 'Virtuality Centres' in the 1990s and are still for sale and private hire.
There are two types of cabinet, or ‘pod’ - one where the player stands up (SU), the other where they sit down (SD) - the key point of both being the head-mounted display (the 'Visette') containing two LCD screens, at a resolution of 276x372, four speakers and a microphone[1]. The SU units have a circle of waist-height sensors and a free-moving joystick (the 'Space Joystick'); the SD design has the player sitting down with joysticks, a steering wheel, or yoke for control.
The stereoscopic display reacts to head movements, the position of the joystick controls movement of the player's virtual hand, and a button on the joystick moves the player forwards in the game arena.
