A clever designer named Samuel Matson has created a new gaming prototype called the 'Immersion Headset.' This wearable technology can control the way gamers react when they are experiencing 'rage' during a rough game. The headset is designed with biometrics to help track a player’s heart rate and then adjusts the game accordingly to stop the rage.
He discovered how to deal with this issue by hacking an Xbox controller and researching a selection of gamer’s heart rates while playing a first-person shooter in (FPS) video games. The idea of preventing this frequent rage experience by gamers is quite impressive as most people tend to deal with this anger by breaking their consoles. This prototype is still under development but would be a great solution to this issue.
