• Shadow Samurai: Motion Capture Game by ITMO Developers

  A group of ITMO students together with the TAU Tracker company released their Shadow Samurai game, which uses motion capture gloves. The game demonstrates the technology’s efficiency: using a VR helmet and TAU Tracker gloves, you can interact with the virtual world without any gamepads and controllers. The project was presented for the first time at the annual Consumer Electronics Show (CES) that was held in Las Vegas in January. According to the developers, apart from the gaming industry, the technology has some other applications, for example, in such fields as medicine, car manufacturing, and robotics. ITMO.NEWS met with the director of ITMO’s Master’s program ‘Game Development Technologies’, Andrey Karsakov, and asked him about the project and its prospects for the future.
