Playing a First-Person Shooter Using Real Guns
Blake writes "A group called Waterloo Labs rigged up a few accelerometers to a large wall and projected a first-person shooter onto it. Using some math, they can triangulate the position of impacts on the wall, so naturally they found someone with a gun and bought a large case of ammunition. Even cooler, this group usually posts a 'how we did it' video a few weeks after a project's debut, including source code."

Unless you use lasers in space shooters. Contrary to a popular disinformation spread frivolously by those lousy physicists, lasers are actually very slow. With a proper engine upgrades, you can outmanuver them easily.
You're either a troll or completely retarded. Allow me to enlighten you: most personnel in the Air Force don't serve in planes.
... they are shot out of catapults
Did you know the army gets tested by shooting at sheet metal signs 300 yards away? If the sign goes "Ding" they get marked down as a hit.
That's nothing, the Bundeswehr practices by shouting "bang" and politely asking the target to fall over.
