GestureTek’s EyeMo™ engine technology provides the novel hook that drives popular game titles. Having a simple, accessible, unique and intuitive feature that sparks interest is a real win and helped us stand out among other mobile 3D offerings. Disruptive control technologies like EyeMo™ will be the driving force behind the more popular games in the coming years.
When we first started this project several years ago, we saw the opportunity to use gestural control to take mobile gaming to a new, intuitive level of fun and simplicity. Using GestureTek technology, Tilt-A-World delivers on that promise.
EyeMo™ is an innovative capability for mobile gaming and other applications where simple hand gestures can become the user interface. This extension is an attractive choice for BREW publishers and developers looking to create a compelling experience for consumers. |
