There is a new LCD lightgun kickstarter. This is claiming no sensor bar, no border, no limitation on how close you have to be and dead on balls accurate. They already have the molding done and the PCB.
I’m really not sure what to do now. Ultimately I think we would want something as accurate as the Sinden but without having to even use a border. I’m not very familiar with Kickstarter and I’m not sure how easily it is to have a faux product but regardless it’s something to think about.

We covered that particular gun in another thread here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,163374.0.html
He made some bold claims but has no evidence to back it up.
I would not even consider it until you see some real footage of real results.

Yeah, that other gun definitely looks like an air mouse. The demonstrator is just dragging a mouse cursor around. The on-gun centering button and the reliance on crosshairs are telling. I have a TV remote that pretty much does the same thing. The technology works decently well, but it's not what I would call a lightgun.

You’re right it does and yes the fact that he needs the MAME crosshairs is a red flag. My DS4’s double as Gyromice and they are not an answer to lightgun games at all.
Well Sinden it is. November is not far off at all, One more week and we’re in October anyway.
