Real-Life Fruit Ninja Looks Fun, and Kinda Difficult
At FH-Wedel in Germany, 4 students developed a real-life Fruit Ninja game using 3-D motion tracking (4 camera-based IR sensors), 5.1 sound, and haptic feedback with a Wiimote. The project was done in the Cave Automatic Virtual Environment (CAVE), which consists of 4 synced PCs and 4 duobeamers. Your ninja sword sits above the Wiimote, which you use to slash the onslaught of fruit flying at you from all directions. It looks pretty awesome, but judging by the number of missed fruit, not a little difficult.
