Imagine driving around a track, having the data recorded by GPS, and then seeing it played back on a video game. Why do that? After all it is more fun driving the car than playing the video game, right? Well, now imagine all the race cars are fitted with this new technology. It is downloaded into the game, and you get to race against the real world drivers in the Indy 500. Cool stuff indeed.
This is the new technology Polyphony Digital (the makers or Gran Turismo) are developing with another aftermarket company to make it so that ones car has data recorded when on the track using GPS technology. Then that data is plugged into a PS3 and then Gran Turismo will simulate that person’s driving. This is shown in this video.
