The biggest issue I see right now is that the current solutions work by moving the mouse cursor... Howerver, you can't have 2 mouse cursors... So you wouldn't be able to track 2 guns this way... Perhaps you could figure out a way to make an analog device drive the inputs (like the T2 guns) then you could build a driver that sends similar inputs to track the 2 guns. Maybe that's not the best way to word it, but I know what I'm talking about... (Drive a gun with something other than a mouse) Anyhow, a gun with an IR Diod in the barrel & a camera should work for 1 gun, we'd just need to find a way to track 2 diods... (different flashing patterns maybe...) but then you're dealing with FPS of the camera & being able to adjust for different cameras... Interesting... |
