3D technology is well on its way to becoming the biggest thing in theater entertainment. A UK company called O2 is deciding to take 3D technology one step further by introducing the world’s first interactive 3D cinema video game. The game is called Asteroid Storm and it will be tested in twenty Vue cinemas through out the UK. In the game, the audience is the controller and has to help steer the spaceship through the dangerous asteroid field. In order to turn the ship, the game instructs certain sections of the audience to raise their hands. For example; to turn right, the right side of the audience raises their hands and to turn left, the left side raises theirs. The audience participation is monitored by two IR cameras that are connected to the gaming server, which means there is no controller is the projection room, nor is the film pre-generated. The game is expected to be run before major 3D films, including Ice Age 3 and Toy Story 3D. [via Register Hardware ]
