"Get ready for 3D touch that will blow your mind..."

The Novint Falcon is the game controller, which has received a lot of attention,
especially in the US, since its launch last year. Replacing the mouse or joystick,
the Falcon is, essentially, a small robot that lets you feel and interact in genuine
3D within computer games.
The Novint Falcon lets you feel high-fidelity three-dimensional force feedback (haptics),
while controlling the game in three dimensions. The Falcon controller not only moves right,
left, up and down, like a mouse, but also moves inwards and outwards for a true 3D touch
enabled gaming experience.
By holding the Falcon’s detachable grip and moving the proxy,
the gamer can interact freely with the objects in the environment; even touch the back side
of objects. The motors of the device are synchronized with the graphics and physics data of
the game letting the gamer feel textures, shapes, weight, dimension, and overall dynamics.
The critics have so far been unanimous stating that the Falcon provides a more immersive
and intense computer gaming experience, some even stating that it’s Nintendo Wii and Force
Feedback on steroids. |
