What is the XRGameKit?

Gaming bikes can cost thousands of dollars. The XRGameKit turns your stationary bike into a far more powerful interactive exercise bike for a fraction of the cost. See the Features page for a comparison between the expensive game bikes and your bike using the XRGameKit. The XRGameKit also works with elliptical trainers and treadmills.

How Does it Work?

The video to the right shows how the XRGameKit works with driving and racing games.   Your pedal motion controls the speed of the vehicle.    Pedal forwards go go forward.    Pedal backwards to go backward.    The faster you pedal, the faster you go.   Tilt your head to steer the vehicle    Tilt your head left to go left.    Tilt your head right to go right.    The more you tilt, the sharper you turn.   When interacting with fight simulators and air combat games, your forward and reverse head tilt can make the plane go up and down.   The XRGameKit gives you precise control over your vehicle.

• Keyboard key presses,

• Mouse button presses,

• Mouse motion,

• Game controller button presses,

• Game controller joystick movement.

You use the XRGameKit software to assign your pedal motion and head tilt to the any responses listed above.
