I Can Kill You By Looking At You..

<div class="IPBDescription">Looks that can kill?</div> I've heard that there's some sort of contact lense that is set to replace the mouse.

your mouse pointer will follow your eyes as the look around the screen, so you only have to look at an icon to click it.

think how this could change thinks like NS. you'd only have to see that pesky skulk to kill him..<!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think this is off topic.

    Hmm.. Interesting. Wonder why they would use contacts tho? They already have technology that can read your eyeball and track it's movement.

    Someday, they will make games that require retinal tracking, and wherever you look will be rendered in full detail, but the rest of the stuff will have low res textures.

    Someday, you won't be able to tell the difference between the game and reality.

    Interpret that as you like.

    That would be pretty cool.
    I'd love to try sniping with a lenses reading my eyeball movement.
    Would be extremely accurate. Blink to fire would be cool too

    What if you're blind like . . . Daredevil?

    By that time you'll probably be able to have bionic eyballs. Which would be pretty cool cos you would be able to have zoom and nightvision and stuff.

    Blink to fire? Your eyelids would fall out after a more hardcore gaming session <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    sniping with something like this would be a very BAD idea

    my thumb is more steady then my eyes (try it, focus on a very small spot (preffblack on white) see how long you can go with out moving, and that sorta out line you see, thats from your eye moving)

    and as for blinking to fire, try that smae experiment ;D

    and as for why contacts? probably much simpler (an x ingrained on your eye is esier to target then your actual eye)

    Blink to fire? And you people complain about the muzzleflash <b><i>now</i></b>?
  • DubersDubers Pet Shop Boy Edinburgh, UK Join Date: 2002-07-25 Member: 998Members
    If it was a fully automatic weapon e.g. lmg and hmg u'd have to keep your eyes closed to fire it. Now that presents somewhat of a problem!

    I'm waiting for the day when NS comes back as a part of the "retro" games movement.

    With a Sniper Rifle I think it would be nice and accurate.
    With somethink like....um.... a Minigun (think GTA3 Vice City)
    your eye's would bleed and fall out.

    So yeah, roll on this hard-ware! :-D
