    And a total disregard for public safety, here is one in action, no safety barriers at all, just imagine what a platform like that could do to a child poking around underneath to see what makes it move.

    F.....k Me thats got some movement. Seat belts needed for sure. Id guess fence may have been removed for video reasons.
    I had a quick look at the site,looks like a 240v blue tiger style simulator.
    $7k is about right for commercial.

    I betting there is no fence, we in western countries are just so used to everything being regulated.

    Technically speaking the use of the Rift contravenes the not for commercial profit part of the Oculus licence, but then again if it is popular in the real world, and it would have to be given the cost, then it suggests the Rift may have a future in reviving traditional public arcades.

    Yea the kids that survive learn to keep away from moving parts. I note with interest the placement of the tracking camera, similar to how I have planned to do mine - it must be rigid while absorbing fast shocks.

    The camera loses tracking in the video.

    I still hope my design will be more successful - They are not doing themselves any favors, by pointing the camera through the steering wheel and hands.

    Google Translate does a pretty poor job on this one, so assume some local dialect used.

    Verbatim from Google:
    "I know where it is in my gorode.Eto expensive. Not everyone afford such dosug.Poetomu I'm here"
