The world of gaming seems to constantly evolve and stretch the parameters of what we thought was possible. As IT and gaming developers work around the clock to bring the public something that they’ve never seen before, the scope of what they are expecting to achieve truly is extraordinary. As such, the below will discuss in more detail upcoming ground-breaking technological advancements in gaming.
Facial Recognition
Facial recognition is already being implemented into our phones and laptops, so it is no surprise that it is also getting used in our gaming. That being said, its use in gaming would be a lot different from merely unlocking a device, as instead, it would be used as a means to create a likeness of yourself within the game. This means that in games where you have character customization, you will be able to create an avatar that is the spitting image of yourself.
By scanning different points on a person’s face, manufacturers will also be able to convey characters’ emotions a lot better.
Amazing Graphics
When you compare the games of 20 years ago to the games we currently play, the difference in the quality of graphics is truly staggering. We have certainly come a long way since 8-bits and 2D rendering. The development of graphics is only continuing as gamers can now fully experience games in the most realistic and immersive way possible.
The fact that games are becoming so much more engaging is very exciting, especially since entertainment plays such an important role in our lives, as we will now be able to fully emerge ourselves into the fictional world that has been created for us.
Voice Recognition
Things are becoming so accessible that soon we won’t even need to pick up a controller to the game. Of course, voice-controlled gaming has been around for a long time, but it is becoming so advanced that now computers can completely recognize our voices unlike they have ever been able to before.
Not only are you going to be able to use your voice to dictate commands, but you will also be able to control gameplay, interact on social media and also play selections from a variety of the media on your gaming site.
Gesture Control
As well as using our voices, we will soon be able to get rid of the controller altogether as the ability to motion and control characters on the screen as a result is becoming more and more doable. Shooter games are being developed to involve gestures, and games on the Nintendo Switch such as Splatoon are using motion control more and more frequently.
Virtual Reality
Though there are many virtual reality gaming consoles created, the consoles are yet to be commercially released to the public. IT developers who are currently creating VR headsets are looking to create an immersive gaming experience, unlike anything that players have ever seen. Getting lost in a game will be easier than ever as you can submerge yourself within the world literally.
