And Final Project Initial Ideation/Research/Thoughts

The plan is to make a head tracker device.
I want to hook up an arduino so that when someone puts it on their head they will be able to look around in a correlating video game (which I'm developing as part of the Digital Media Workshop class). It is important that this process of looking around be emphasized as the game's concept is that of looking through two different perceptions/experiences/spaces.




Here are some basic starting points, need to figure out how to build it and get it built.
