The conceptual Nintendo Sync gaming console is a different approach to the classic video game experience that integrates gesture, proximity and voice controls to change the way gamers are immersed in the content.
The console is the design work of Devash Shah and works by having players strategically place their hands over thee sensors to move accordingly in the digital world. The voice input functionality encourages players to shout or blow on the controller to bring about a fully immersive experience that is focused on a sensory experience instead of just button-based controllers.
The conceptual Nintendo Sync console speaks to the need for next-generation gaming experiences to bridge the disconnect that exists between traditional game experiences and VR technology to ease the shift for users.
