At the Max Plank Institute for Biological Cybernetics (that name is WIN alone!) they’ve created a Giant robot arm used as F1 simulator !! It looks most fun, but don’t hold your breath waiting for one of these to show up at an arcade anytime soon (or for that matter, to arrive in homes — this ain’t your usual PS3!). There’s a very cool video on the site showing what it can do. Like the OP, I noticed a lag in the movement of the arm compared to the actions of the operator. This surely will get better with time, though. But just imagine!! Hanging up there in space supported by a giant robot arm running a driving simulation. That has all sorts of win written all over it.
