The GAMR Active Gaming Play Pad is an immersive active gaming controller that boasts a mat-style construction that's engineered to maximize versatility for avid gamers.
The peripheral is characterized by its wireless design that holds a 360-degree center balance sensor inside to detect movement from every angle to accommodate for directed movements to natural weight shifting. The controller can be used with your choice of system thanks to its omni-compatible design that works with Android, iOS, PCs, macOS and smart TVs over Bluetooth.
The GAMR Active Gaming Play Pad has a yoga mat-like design that can be easily rolled up and carried between locations. The nonslip design of the mat means it will stay in place, but also increase the user's surefooted feeling.
