looks interesting but wouldn’t jump into buying before it hits shelves and there is bunch of reviews out there.
For example remember those 3dconnexion spacepilot “mouse” thingy?
It probably had some use in some areas but not really useful inside any viewport of 3d software as there is bunch of other shortcuts on the keyboard nand it was way faster to just go with keyboard with everything there instead of jumping from one to another.
So I’m guessing that something similar could be case here, looks amazing and great but not really practical to use.
Also just try waving arms like modeling for an hour in front of monitor, just as a test to see how long you will go :slight_smile:
Try just keeping them up and off the table :wink:

Lightwave 11 now has Device node which can acquire information from different “motion” devices like game controllers and such (Intersense, PS3) and I guess with a little of good will from manufacturer and some nodal setup it might do these things.

I don’t see much use of it, though, but it would be cool to try to animate or model (sculpt!?) in this way.

Cheers!

I think Zbrush with it’s sculting features could really use this.

agreed, with zbrush it really would be like sculpting with digital clay with your digital hands :bounce:
