Hello,
I am really new to the game and have yet to purchase it, but still hope you guys might be interested in my idea.
I have been planning to build a Sim Setup for GP Bikes.
The basic idea is taken from this YouTube video I found: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWzoSs_2SI0
Additionaly to this setup, I want to add either 4 pneumatic or hydraulic cylinders to move the bike on 2 Axis (Lean L/R, Lean F/B) or even use electric motors with rods attached.
As far as I know lots of data can be pulled in real-time frome the game.
Furthermore I planned on using an XBOX 360 kinect sensor for body-position tracking and then using it for the body lean controls.
For clutch, throttle and (both)brake I would be using potentiometers in addition to an arduino.
Other buttons would simple be added with an USB Encoder.
I also thought about implementing countersteering on the actual moving rack.
I know I have alot planned but I wanted to hear your thoughts and ideas.
Best regards
Feinberg
