German students create life-size, motion controlled VR Fruit Ninja game

By Carl Pei on March 28, 2011

Fruit Ninja VR CAVE Ever wondered how Fruit Ninja would look on the Wii or with the Xbox Kinect? German students Thiemo, Alex, Matze and Moritz have taken the matters in their own hands, and created a life-size, motion controlled version of the Fruit Ninja game. The entire project took 2 weeks at the FH Wedel campus, and is implemented in CAVE (Cave Automatic Virtual Environment).

Details of this project were sent to us by group member Thiemo. Thanks for sharing!
