Grad student Saurabh Palan and engineers from the University of Pennsylvania have created the ultimate garb for gamers--the Tactile Gaming Vest.
Imagine playing 'Call of Duty' and feeling the shock of being hit by an opponent's bullet. Not only would you feel the impact, you would feel the change in blood flow. The Tactile Gaming Vest is sure to take gaming (and the movie-watching experience) to a whole new level.
Our world is quickly stepping towards 4-D, and I am totally excited about it! If I could get ahold of a Tactile Gaming Vest, I might just become a gamer.
