While many recent racing games like Grid and the latest
in the Gran Turismo series are coming very close to replicating
the view from the drivers seat, no game can actually pit
a gamer against the real life pros, in real time and with
realistic graphics.
Real Time Race, a company based in Daresbury, England
is hoping to change that with their new technology which
allows anyone, from the comfort of their favorite armchair,
to do battle against real professional racing drivers,
on real circuits, in real time. And because the graphics
are video-based the realism is as good as you're going
to get.
Real Time Race have been working on the system since the
company was founded in 2003. Four years later the company
had developed the technology to a point where it was ready
to begin testing. Then in May of 2009, with the help of
Lotus Cars and their private test track, Real Time Race
were able to demonstrate the concept for the first time.
Since then team at Real Time Race have announced the project
to the main worldwide motor racing series including Formula
1, WRC, Nascar and Indy-car. With positive results. Due
to the interest from major world motor racing series',
it's possible that some time in 2010 the technology will
start to become commercially available - and at the same
time change the way racing games are played throughout
the world.
Real Time Race have made sure that their technology will
be widely available and easy to use. That's why it's compatible
with the Xbox 360, Wii, Playstation 3, and PC's. Basically
Real Time Race will work with any Internet connected screen
with a web browser.
