LeTV Motion Sense Gun: Teach you how to change your posture and masturbate in the living room

The TV game market has been tepid in recent years. Although the audience of TV games is huge, only a small number of core players account for the majority, and the payment conversion rate is very low. For this reason, LeTV has launched LeTV consoles, Super Gun King and other TV game peripherals to enrich the gameplay and improve the user experience. The somatosensory gun-shaped peripheral Super Gun King launched by LeTV for shooting games has left a deep impression on many people, but the slightly high price inevitably excludes some casual players.

Recently, LeTV and Huanchuang launched another blockbuster product with a more affordable price - the motion sensing pistol (which can be said to have enriched LeTV's arsenal).

The modeling ratio is 1:1. This toy is a bit fierce.

First, let’s take a look at the appearance of LeTV’s motion-sensing pistol. According to the official introduction, its design is inspired by the world-famous standard weapon of the Israeli infantry in service - the Desert Eagle (yes, it is the classic gun that appears in various games and movies and is familiar to everyone).

The pistol adopts the 1:1 size design of the real gun, the handle has a full grip, the shell is made of polymer frosted polymer resin, the muzzle is equipped with a new infrared transmitter, and the texture and frosted feel of the gun body are also very good. Unlike the charging mode of the Super Gun King, the somatosensory pistol is equipped with 3 No. 5 batteries as the power source, and the bullet clip is the battery compartment. This design makes the overall shape and weight of the pistol more realistic. The color is the same dark gold as the Super Gun King. The reason why it is not made into the color of the gun body itself is probably due to national policies.

In order to make the experience more realistic, this pistol is designed with a pullable sleeve. During the game, when the bullets are used up, you need to manually pull the sleeve of the pistol to reload. This is the same principle as a pistol in real life! The degree of restoration is very high. In addition, the pulling force of the sleeve is moderate, and children aged 4 or 5 can pull it easily. There is a blue signal light on the sleeve of the pistol, and the blue light will flash when shooting. The trigger uses a micro-roller switch, which has a decent feedback feel and is accompanied by a clear sense of paragraphs, which increases your fun of shooting in the game.

In order to improve the sensing accuracy of the motion sensing pistol, the motion sensing pistol adopts a dual-body design. In addition to the pistol itself, it is also equipped with a sensor, and the socket is an ordinary USB interface. The sensor socket equipped with its senior brother Super Gun King can only be supported by some LeTV TVs. Obviously, the motion sensing pistol has an advantage over LeTV Gun King in popularity.

After looking at the gun body, let's look at the sensor. The workmanship of the sensor is very good, and the color is consistent with the gun body. In addition, the sensor uses the optical recognition principle and has excellent accuracy. The only shortcoming is that the USB port is not "gold-plated" and cannot match the color of the gun body.

Playing shooting games is the key to accurate positioning

As a gaming motion-sensing pistol, the quality of the in-game experience is definitely the primary issue that players care about. In LeTV's game center, the category of LeTV motion-sensing pistol was found. After entering, it was found that there were already 2 games in this directory that supported LeTV motion-sensing pistol.

We first tried out "Dark Breakthrough" developed by TVPLAY and first released on LeTV TV. As the name suggests, this is a dark horror game. As expected, the game is based on the popular tomb exploration, combining gunfights and tomb exploration elements into one, giving users an immersive scene experience. Before the game starts, we have to adjust our position. Like the Super Gun King, 1.5M to 2M away from the TV is the best position for the somatosensory pistol.

After entering the game, all operations can be completed with a pistol. Move the crosshairs to make a selection, and press the trigger to confirm.

The game's graphics are quite satisfactory, and the dark and terrifying atmosphere is well rendered. The music also complements the game. The exciting background music before entering the tomb and the various terrifying sound effects in the tomb give people an immersive feeling. Thanks to the weight of the battery compartment, the gun body will not shake too much when you pull the trigger quickly in a fierce gunfight, and there will be no floating phenomenon. However, holding the gun for a long time will inevitably make your arms a little tired.

Another game, Tiny Troops 2, is also a shooting game, but it is changed from the first person to the third person. Compared with the real operation of pulling the trigger in Dark Breakthrough, the operation of this game is more physical. The skills and weapons in the game need to be selected and slid to the specified position before they can be activated. The game graphics are also very good among TV games, and the operation is very simple. Click the position you want to go with the pistol, select and slide the pistol to activate skills and call for support. Compared with Dark Breakthrough, Tiny Troops 2 is more interesting.

Affordable price, low entry barrier, and abundant game resources

Generally speaking, the somatosensory pistol can be said to be a simplified version of the Super Gun King. Compared with its predecessor, the Super Gun King, the somatosensory pistol is lighter, more convenient to use and more suitable for children and female players. At the same time, the affordable price of 299 and the sensor with USB port design also mean that this equipment is easier to popularize and has a lower threshold. However, the cancellation of the recoil vibration design makes this weapon lack in authenticity.

Through the experience of two motion sensing games, we can see that LeTV's motion sensing pistol has a high accuracy, thanks to its dual-body design of a pistol plus an external sensor, which solves the problem of inaccurate positioning caused by traditional Bluetooth or 2.4G signals and host connections. Using the principle of optical recognition, absolute coordinate positioning gives people a refreshing feeling of hitting wherever they point, and the real experience it brings is impressive.

As a new field, TV game platform is very lacking in corresponding somatosensory equipment. However, LeTV’s game peripherals tailored for TV games can be said to have seized the opportunity, promoted the development of TV games, and also let many people see the future prospects of the market. The somatosensory pistol is the third peripheral launched by LeTV to enrich the living room entertainment after LeTV Table Stick and LeTV Gun King. With the somatosensory pistol, LeTV has made TV games have richer gameplay and experience, and truly expanded the living room into a family entertainment center. I believe that after more game resources, LeTV somatosensory pistols and other devices will enter more families.
