25 Mar 09 PDP Unveils GameTrak Freedom and SmartStylus Products
Gamers are bound to love these two new gadgets unveiled by Performance Designed Products (PDP) that will change the face of gaming. The 2 new devices are the GameTrak Freedom and SmartStylus.
Gametrak Freedom is a proprietary and patent-pending ultrasonic 3D motion sensing technology that delivers performance, increased control and flexibility. The system is comprised of a base unit, which attaches to the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft via USB, and a hand-held controller.
Unlike other motion sensing gaming systems, Gametrak Freedom does not rely on the gamer pointing a controller at the screen, nor does it restrict the gamer to limited movements. The system accurately tracks the true 3D position and precise movements of up to four players anywhere within a given environment. This technology provides players with total control and unrivaled game play opportunities.
PDP also unveiled the new revolutionary wireless SmartStylus 1 and 2 devices for the Nintendo DS. The patent-pending SmartStylus™ 1 and 2 both feature a vibration feedback that players using the stylus will feel based on movements and commands in the game. The SmartStylus 2 can include a variety of added features, including LEDs, sound and motion feedback.
With the motion feedback capability, the stylus can now act as a motion input device, allowing you, for example, to hit a home run by swinging the stylus off the DS screen. The SmartStylus 1 will launch this fall and is pending licensing by Nintendo.
“The technologies offered by both the Gametrak Freedom™ and the SmartStylus™ tools are the first of their kind,” said John Moore, senior vice president of marketing for the California-based PDP. “PDP is excited to be introducing these new technologies. They will create a new level of gaming that can be enjoyed by the whole family.”
