The Novint Falcon is an entirely new type of game controller.
Replacing your mouse or joystick, the Falcon is, essentially, a
small robot that lets you experience true virtual touch unlike any
controller in history.
The Novint Falcon lets you control a game in three dimensions, and
also lets you feel high-fidelity three-dimensional force feedback.
The Falcon controller moves right and left, forwards and backwards,
like a mouse, but also moves up and down. When you hold the
Falcon's detachable Grip and move your cursor to interact with a
virtual object, environment, or character, motors in the device
turn on and are updated approximately 1000 times a second, letting
you feel texture, shape, weight, dimension, and dynamics. The
Falcon lets you control and interact with games in more realistic
way, allowing you to develop real physical skill and muscle memory,
adding a new dimension to gaming.
Our sense of touch connects us to the world around us and is an
integral part of how we experience things, both physically and
emotionally. In the past, games have incorporated increasingly
sophisticated graphics and sound design, but none have added
realistic touch, until now. The award-winning Novint Falcon makes
virtual items and experiences feel real. Hold the Falcon's
interchangeable Grip and feel a character's actions, instead of
controlling a game with mouse-clicks and meters. Feel the weight
of a basketball as you shoot it towards a hoop -- the momentum and
impact as you swing a virtual golf club and strike a ball -- the
recoil of a weapon -- or the physical characteristics of virtual
objects and environments.
In the same way the introduction of sound changed motion pictures,
or graphics made the Internet what it is today, Novint's technology
transforms the user experience by adding realistic interactive 3D
touch to computing. While the concept of interactive touch in
computing is as unimaginable to most people as the idea of
television was in the age of radio, we envision a not-too-distant
future when it is as commonplace and ubiquitous as a mobile phone
or a computer mouse.
