"BodyNav® is a fun extended reality game that demonstrates the power of navigating space with intuitive body movement. Leverage your innate sense of space, lean in the direction you want to go, and magically minimize motion sickness. Lean your body forward and back to ""walk"" around. Lean your body left & right to sidestep. Earn points by finding and occupying 3D objects. Lose points by hitting walls. Listen for spatial audio cues and have fun! Stereo VR mode requires a passive stereoscopic 3D headset (like Google Cardboard). BodyNav technology can be easily adapted to modernize your own product user experiences with just a few lines of code. It enhances first-person gaming, multi-camera performances and sporting events, control of remote vehicles, video conferencing and telepresence applications, street-view maps, augmented reality, architectural simulations, and 3D user interfaces for browsing documents and images.
