This is a world first. A unique FPS simulator that turns gaming into reality as you move, aim, fire and get shot within a 360-degree immersive environment.

Using a pre-release copy of Battlefield 3 and a team of top technology experts from across Europe we've built a truly one of a kind simulator.

Centred on the world's first, portable omni-directional treadmill (designed by Swedish company MSE Weibull) the simulator lets you control the movements of a Battlefield 3 character with your own body. Other key technology employed includes: an Igloo Vision projection dome; 12 paintball markers that allow the player, in real time, to feel the enemy gunfire experienced in the game; a wireless gun system; ambient LED lighting; and an Xbox Kinect camera hack.

    It's really cool that we have the Oculus Rift and soon the Virtuix Omni.

    Gamers will have something similar to this,

    This is essentially what oculus rift and virtuix omni together are trying to bring to every gamer's house.

    Obviously with the extra space it'd be nice to have the larger omnitread but the new ones make it a genuine possibility in the future. Which I can't bloody wait for.

    Hah, rental field chrono their guns way low because customers complaining about the pain is bad for buisness. Go to a indoor field and ask for a 300 fps Reball shot to the torso and you'll be slipping on that armor next.

    Regular paintballs break apart when they hit, thus aren't delivering all of their energy to you, Reballs do, and you'll feel it.
