Suppose there's a VR simulator that featured a virtual race

You'll never catch me on a bike

What's the point of that if you're already on the actual track?

>>15304140
to trust the machine.

I want flip-down VR goggles on my bike helmet. I could plug it into a small, powerful computer in the motorcycle chassis, then I could play vidya when I'm in a parking lot and everyone can think I'm fucking retarded

>>15304140
Because the cones you set up in the Walmart parking lot isn't an actual track

>>15304165
You don't need the vr goggles for that to happen

Regardless, I would probably trundle around the track a couple times, but there's no way in hell that I'd try to go fast.

>rich fucks of the world build their own race tracks and make a vr racing sim, with multiplayer

>>15304119
What happens when you hit an oil slick on the real track that isn't on the VR track?

>>15304119
Given that I have and use an Oculus Rift, and I also ride a motorcycle, I'd say no. It would be incredibly disorienting because of the vibration, among other things

No

What a stupid thread.

It's like someone somewhere spent a good amount of time coming up with the dumbest possible idea.

VR is the future.

I want to make a simulator like the airlines use to train pilots. But instead of sitting in a cockpit you sit in a race seat fully harnessed in. The rig will not only be capable of movements but vibrations as well. To further increase the realism a full face racing helmet is worn with the screen integrated into the visor. Then to simulate g forces use those inflatable bags used in other simulators. To top it all off I'd put heating elements in so I can replicate authentic racecar temps.
Anything else I could add?

Vr uses gyros
A bike leans, fucking up the gyros
Latency is an enormous problem

It's only 90 fps and there's lag. I also would not trust this simulator to be accurate.

Don't do that?
