Hi Eelke,

Looks great!

if you like to test it with a more realistic setup, we have a motion platform from Force Dynamics at my university department:

Would be really cool to integrate with what you’ve done

Best regards,

> In an attempt to develop a better understanding of how blind people could drive a vehicle using non visual feedback my lab developed a simple haptic steering interface. We used mostly game hardware (Sony Move + Logitech G27) for our experiments but i'm sure we could further develop this into a racing game.
