Temperature as an Interface Element for Gaming, Drawing and Sitting #DigInfo

[razord93]

They should put that into mmo's as people can learn to not stand in fire

[IntarwebUser]

That is so damned cool. I would love a game where you could find secret areas and stuff like that.

There was one flash game I played where you avoid the bad guy hiding in the ceiling by listening to the sound the game makes as you get closer. That was pretty neat, too. There needs to be more games where you use more than just your eyes to play.

[ShortyPenguin]

This would be great for kids learning about hot and cold. Teachers could demonstrate it without possible injuries. :) I remember learning by looking at pictures of snowmen and sunshine, and that's no fun! :P

[xyohx]

Wow if this were to use in a gallery

[Shadowfish26]

Just a pointless gimmick when used in chairs and games..

[TheLolipro]

Ubuntu....................

[CeonTV]

My ass communicates enough already...

[thelegend255]

Or maybe just warm the chair and sit at it

[AGeekWithSoicalSkill]

Ubuntu sticker!

[anonpower20]

think about the porn implementations!

[1xtra299]

mmmm, more sweaty game controlers...

BRING IT

[HMChadwick]

Hmm... so the sun - which would be white - would be hot while snow - which is white - would be cold?

[mstdesigns]

@HMChadwick Since when the sun looks white from earth?

[HMChadwick]

@mstdesigns I dunno, perhaps search google images "sun in sky" and tell me.

[softhunterdevil]

We have cold meal for today children !!

[djsuperstar717]

Videogames would be an okay application for this technology,

But if they really wanted to make a lot of money, they would make it into PC monitors for blind people

[lurchy]

so if i walk into a bar and see this hot chick? i can make her seat hot so she knows shes hot? right? and cos im a cool dude i can make my seat cold right?

[generalprax]

It would be cool if the chair was linked to another chair and would be warm or cold depending on whether the opposite chair was occupied or vacant.

[cheetahman2007]

Ubuntu



[Sorgutentarer]

This is great for blind people.

[Aggemannen117]

Boner identificationer?

[JetzKiterr]

"You could warm the seat, using a remot control, to let your family know that 'We're going to have a hot meal today.' "

...Or, ya know, you could just say "We're going to have a hot meal today."

[cthatshit]

@JetzKiterr yea that was kinda funny

[FreezingHold]

Super mario will probably burn your hands and bottom ^.^"

(all those lava and fireballs, bullets... etc)

[niko4691k]

Cool, but I don't see any practical reason to spend lots of money on something like this.

[RagingBubuli]

1:19 UBUNTU Logo FTW!

[KiLLeRxxBuNNy]

if u watch porn what temp u will feel?

[dekoomers]

Meh

[jkjkjij22]

blue flames are hotter than red flames.

blue is actually hotter than red.

[Etherouge]

@jkjkjij22 Yup. Doesn't matter, though. This is just a demonstration.

[Mangafreak1995]

@jkjkjij22 Green flames :? The colour depends also on the stuff you're burning ;)

[jkjkjij22]

@Mangafreak1995 yeah each thing u burn has different colour, but it's because of the amount of energy they release.

[Mangafreak1995]

@jkjkjij22 ok, got me. I always thought the colour depends on the stuff relations you're burning.

[h0tie]

Must be a shit load of heating elements under the hood

[HatchetHaro]

Oh man Japan is developing so quickly with these controls, in no time at all there will be warm/cold beds for sex.

[obsidianstatue]

@HatchetHaro you mean an electic blanket, which u can get one for 10 dollars from walmart??

[NarutoRocks2011]

@obsidianstatue lol and how make that ???

japan...exactly

i think they are working for something else here its will be awesome to have a controller how make fire

[HatchetHaro]

@obsidianstatue Nope. One that changes if they sense them sleeping or having sex O___o

[martinhjerpe]

PlayStation 7 doesn't exist, you head it here first folks...

[Redgit232]

I heard that those things aren't very efficient

[Reloaded211]

I can't really think of any useful information that could be translated this way in games. Player's probably won't be that happy to hold a cold controller for an hour.

[heavenfalls013]

the ps6 will have electric shock controllers.... you heard it here first folks

[albertoxFTW]

the SONY PlayStation 5 will have temperature controllers you heard it here first folks

[MurdocLC]

@albertoxFTW Nintendo is more likely to do such a thing... Then Sony will copy it so maybe you're right...

[manlykblaze]

@albertoxFTW shut up abt sony playstation 5 having temperature controllers more like playstation 4 because it hasnt been designed or hasnt been said

[dadsythe2]

first to comment, last to get laid

[thegreatersnake]

@dadsythe2 Dear god I must have comment first on something when I was young.
