Crazed gamer plays Minecraft using a receipt printer as a display — crippling 0.5 fps frame rate not even the biggest drawback
“Don’t do this. Don’t build this. Don’t make this. I do not approve of anyone making this themselves,” the creator said in her Instagram video. “I don’t condone that behavior; it’s incredibly dangerous and I’m not liable!”
This isn’t the first time that a person has used a GVS device with a game. In fact, we have a Reddit post from 2021 showing u/yahma driving with this attached to his head. He would lean towards the direction that the in-game car would turn, and when it tumbled over the side of the ride, the Redditor also went tumbling off his seat.
Doctors and scientists have been studying GVS since the 1990s, but it still isn’t widely used in routine medical treatment. Still, there are some clinical studies looking at it to see how it can be used to treat conditions relating to balance and other therapeutic applications. But, as the creator said, you shouldn’t try building this yourself, as we still don’t know the long-term effects of using GVS on your head.
