Cool Technology

Stanford Emotional Detecter Controller
This is a cool device attached to an Xbox controller where it measures how the player is feeling with from sensing their physiological status and adjusting the gameplay as needed to the person's psyche.

Playstation VR

Announced just recently at TGS 2015, the Playstation VR immerses players into the game's world by putting on a Headgear and then feel like their actually in the game by viewing in first person and enjoying the game's graphics not on a TV screen but right in front of you. Giving gaming users a new sense of immersive experience.

Wearable ArmBand Controller

Again this was shown in class, but I still think it's pretty cool. Being able to just wear this and work technology without having to move around much. It could be useful for people that are like disabled or people that can't move around much.
