Move Your Head, Feel the Game!
A New Dimension in Gaming with Real-Time Head Tracking
With this innovative application, you can control the in-game camera simply by turning your head left-right or tilting it forward-backward. Enjoy a more realistic and natural gameplay experience in games like ETS2, BeamNG, DCS, FSX and more!
🧠 How It Works
The application requires a virtual joystick vJoy driver to work. If this driver is not installed on your computer, the application will direct you to the free vJoy download page. Complete the installation and restart the application to start using it.
Calibration: By asking you to perform certain head movements (e.g., look right, look up), the system creates a more precise and personalized control profile. To make this easier, a guide is available at the bottom left inside the app.
Everything is ready! Open your game, connect vJoy, and easily assign your control commands. A step-by-step guide using ETS2 is included within the application to assist you.
