IFA – Force-Feedback-Vest with tickling attacks.
In the recent online article heise online – IFA special – Force-Feedback-Weste mit Kitzelattacke, Heise News (a german IT news site) had a really nice caption under one image showing a new force-feedback vest by Philips. The image looks like this:
The german caption is: “Philips’ Force-Feedback-Weste ermöglicht tödliche Kitzelattacken in PC-Shootern.”
Translation to english is: “Philips Force-Feeback-Vest allows deathly tickling-attacks in PC-Shooters.” (Means First-Person-Shooters).
Nice. That’s at least a pleasant way of dying: Being tickled to death.
Of course, the article itself clears up the misunderstanding: The vest is more tickling than “punching” the player, even if his game-ego is killing most ferociously.
