TeleFloatation
The core of this craft, which houses a color
video camera, 2.4 GHz video transmitter, and
radio control receiver, mounts onto an 8-foot
balloon and
propeller assembly for flight,
or onto a 7-inch car chassis for terrestrial use.
The camera's video signal is received by a
wearable module that displays
the on-board
view to the remote pilot via a custom heads-up
video display helmet, which itself senses lateral
and vertical head movement and translates that
motion into equivalent panning of the camera.
The result is a surreal experience that immerses
the user in a disembodied form and allows
dream-like exploration
and interaction.
