In one prerecorded demonstration at DigitalLife, as a gamer moved through his neighborhood, the video game he played mimicked his movement and surroundings. It looked as though the gamer was strolling through a castle with corridors as long and wide as the streets and alleys through which he walked. HP has big plans for this experimental technology, including giving the gaming device the ability to detect the user's heart rate and to halt the game if the player stops moving. HP envisions the Mediascape technology can be used to create games, educational tools, historical tours and other applications.
