It is time to re-enter the gaming grid.

0:00:020:00:04

Welcome to Click. I'm Spencer Kelly.

0:00:220:00:24

Welcome to downtown Los Angeles.

0:00:240:00:27

Hollywood is seven miles in that direction

0:00:270:00:30

but you feel the showbiz glow from here.

0:00:300:00:33

It's even making me look slightly less repulsive than normal.

0:00:330:00:36

But for one week every year,

0:00:360:00:38

the biggest thing in town doesn't come from there, it comes from here.

0:00:380:00:42

The LA Convention Centre.

0:00:420:00:44

This is where the video games industry lets rip.

0:00:440:00:47

It is time for E3.

0:00:470:00:50

We'll bring you all the big announcements from the show, of course,

0:00:500:00:53

and we'll get strapped in to the goggles

0:00:530:00:56

everyone wants to wear this year.

0:00:560:00:59

The rest of your gaming wardrobe is covered too, from chest to toe.

0:00:590:01:03

Last year, all the talk was about the launch of the PS4 and Xbox One,

0:01:080:01:12

but now they're here and this year a lot of the excitement is not based

0:01:120:01:16

around the games machines, but about what we'll be watching the games on.

0:01:160:01:20

Never mind your massive screens, something more immersive

0:01:200:01:24

has re-emerged.

0:01:240:01:26

Virtual reality has reared its head again,

0:01:260:01:28

which means for Marc Cieslak and myself,

0:01:280:01:31

it is time to enter the Grid.

0:01:310:01:33

FUTURISTIC MUSIC

0:01:430:01:45

Aaaargh!

0:02:080:02:10

Virtual reality, computer generated worlds

0:02:160:02:19

which are completely immersive for the viewer.

0:02:190:02:21

All the rage 30 years ago, and what was acceptable in the '80s

0:02:210:02:25

is making a comeback.

0:02:250:02:26

But if it didn't catch on then, why should they catch on today?

0:02:260:02:30

Facebook certainly thinks that virtual reality has got legs.

0:02:320:02:35

It's shelling out 2 billion for VR start-up Oculus Rift,

0:02:350:02:39

an outfit which has designed a headset for use with PCs

0:02:390:02:42

and, possibly, consoles.

0:02:420:02:43

Sony has thrown its virtual hat or headset into the ring with this.

0:02:480:02:52

Dubbed Project Morpheus, it's a VR peripheral for the PlayStation 4.

0:02:520:02:57

Morpheus has these lights on the front of it

0:02:590:03:01

which the PlayStation camera uses to figure out

0:03:010:03:03

where the helmet is pointing.

0:03:030:03:05

It also has two high res screens inside

0:03:050:03:08

and a band which is adjustable for a comfortable fit.

0:03:080:03:10

The headset itself is a little bit on the heavy side,

0:03:120:03:15

I'm not sure I'd be keen on wearing it for too long.

0:03:150:03:18

One of the things which has hampered VR in the past is lag,

0:03:190:03:22

or images the player sees taking time to catch up with their movements.

0:03:220:03:27

In order to avoid this the headset plugs into this box here,

0:03:280:03:32

which manages most of the number crunching and processing required

0:03:320:03:35

to create a lag-free experience.

0:03:350:03:37

This means the actual PS4 console is left to worry

0:03:370:03:41

about the gaming side of the equation.

0:03:410:03:43

I put this to the test in the next demo,

0:03:430:03:45

which requires an unusual peripheral - a bean bag.

0:03:450:03:50

I'm lucky because this particular demo hasn't been seen

0:03:500:03:54

by anybody outside the development team yet.

0:03:540:03:57

It's a street luge experience.

0:03:570:03:59

This isn't a passive experience.

0:03:590:04:01

I am actually controlling my movement by tipping my head left or right.

0:04:010:04:07

This is really, really strange.

0:04:070:04:09

Because I'm lying down and I can see a visual representation

0:04:090:04:12

of my body in front of me, I'm almost convinced that is my real body.

0:04:120:04:17

But there's a strange disconnect between what I'm seeing

0:04:170:04:20

and what I'm feeling.

0:04:200:04:22

If I move my hand, I almost expect that my on-screen hand should

0:04:220:04:25

be moving as well.

0:04:250:04:27

That is a testament to how convincing... Whoa!

0:04:270:04:30

..this experience is.

0:04:300:04:32

Is isn't really a game as such, but this is the development team

0:04:320:04:36

at Sony playing with what they can do with virtual reality,

0:04:360:04:39

seeing how far they can push this technology before it hits prime time.

0:04:390:04:43

I think it has the potential to really be transformative

0:04:430:04:47

in the way that we think about game experiences.

0:04:470:04:50

It's by no means a final product at this stage.

0:04:500:04:53

There's a lot more work to be done both on the software development,

0:04:530:04:56

as well as on the hardware development side, but we think

0:04:560:04:59

there's a real potential there to push gaming into a new realm.

0:04:590:05:02

Oculus Rift may not have had a huge press conference

0:05:040:05:07

but the new kid on the block has plenty of games in the pipeline,

0:05:070:05:10

notably, VR third person platformer, Lucky's Tail

0:05:100:05:14

and the inventive, time freezing, corridor-based combat of Super Hot.

0:05:140:05:18

21-year-old Palmer Lucky is the brains behind Oculus Rift.

0:05:190:05:23

He doesn't think all types of games are appropriate for virtual reality.

0:05:230:05:27

The best games for any platform are almost

0:05:270:05:30

always the games that were made for that platform,

0:05:300:05:32

whether it's Wii, or Kinect, or a mobile game, or a portable console.

0:05:320:05:36

The best games are not ports from other systems.

0:05:360:05:39

The same thing goes for virtual reality as well.

0:05:390:05:41

The best game are not PC or console games with a VR mode,

0:05:410:05:44

they're games that were made with the strengths and weaknesses

0:05:440:05:46

of virtual reality in mind from the ground up.

0:05:460:05:49

It's not just VR headsets making waves at E3.

0:05:490:05:52

This is Control VR, a prototype rig which can convert

0:05:520:05:56

hand and arm movements into accurate on-screen movement.

0:05:560:06:00

Developed for military technology, its inertial sensors are

0:06:000:06:04

so accurate, individual finger wiggles can be processed seamlessly.

0:06:040:06:08

So, technology which was a failure in the 20th century

0:06:100:06:13

certainly looks like it could find a home in the 21st.

0:06:130:06:16

Marc Cieslak. While we wait for Oculus, Sony and the like

0:06:200:06:23

to get their high powered headsets up and running, how about this?

0:06:230:06:26

Something a lot cheaper but just as cheerful.

0:06:260:06:28

This is the Vrizzmo VR headset.

0:06:280:06:31

You will notice that you can see the two lenses through there

0:06:310:06:34

which means, at the moment, there's no display in front of it.

0:06:340:06:38

That is because the display is your smartphone,

0:06:380:06:41

which you stick on the front like that.

0:06:410:06:44

There we go.

0:06:440:06:47

Each game that you play on this is obviously a special app

0:06:470:06:49

which renders the visuals into two separate images, one for each eye.

0:06:490:06:54

I have to say, the experience - this isn't bad.

0:06:540:06:57

The resolution of the screen on this phone is fine.

0:06:570:07:00

Well, the experience isn't far off some of the higher end

0:07:000:07:03

VR headsets that I've tried.

0:07:030:07:05

The advantage of this set-up is that if you upgrade your smartphone,

0:07:050:07:08

for example, to an even higher res screen,

0:07:080:07:11

you do get better visuals in your VR headset for no extra expense.

0:07:110:07:15

Oh, there's a zombie.

0:07:150:07:17

Now, oh, there you are...

0:07:180:07:20

You might think that most of the environments that you can explore

0:07:200:07:23

with VR would be computer generated worlds,

0:07:230:07:25

but there's a lot of talk about these headsets being able

0:07:250:07:27

to drop you into the real world too.

0:07:270:07:30

A sporting event, for example,

0:07:300:07:31

or a tech conference, if you can't afford the hotel bills.

0:07:310:07:34

Before you can display the world in 360 degrees,

0:07:350:07:39

you have to work out how to capture it first.

0:07:390:07:42

Richard Taylor has been to see a couple of companies

0:07:420:07:45

who are doing just that.

0:07:450:07:47

Imagine if you will, it's been a long, hard day at work.

0:07:500:07:54

Simply plug in, kick back

0:07:540:07:56

and transport yourself to an idyll of your choosing.

0:07:560:08:00

Perhaps you'll head to the Tropics.

0:08:000:08:02

Maybe you'll marvel at the views from America's West Coast.

0:08:040:08:07

And, predictably, it's from here that the cinematic VR scene

0:08:090:08:13

is taking root.

0:08:130:08:14

We're the first camera crew allowed inside the offices of Jaunt,

0:08:150:08:19

the new Silicon Valley start up

0:08:190:08:21

making virtual reality very real indeed.

0:08:210:08:24

SCREAMS

0:08:240:08:26

The team has painstakingly built a camera rig which allows them

0:08:280:08:32

to faithfully recreate a filmed scene in full 360 degree video.

0:08:320:08:38

The top of the bridge here is a different height.

0:08:380:08:41

We need to correct for cameras being at slightly different angles.

0:08:410:08:44

Using advanced software to stitch it together, the clip can be fed

0:08:440:08:48

to me in 3D through my headset, accompanied by simulated 3D sound.

0:08:480:08:53

Though the pictures are a little fuzzy, I do feel incredibly immersed,

0:08:530:08:57

temporarily able to suspend disbelief.

0:08:570:09:00

This is all about creating a sense of presence and I really do feel

0:09:000:09:05

like I'm in this scene and that's why it feels slightly strange

0:09:050:09:09

that when I look down I don't see my legs, that's very weird.

0:09:090:09:14

What's the endgame for this, do you think?

0:09:140:09:16

Well, I think the endgame is really that people will spend

0:09:160:09:20

part of their day virtually teleported, if you will,

0:09:200:09:24

where they, maybe, take a class online.

0:09:240:09:27

They think about their vacation and then say, maybe I'll try that hotel.

0:09:270:09:31

They put it on and suddenly they're poolside at that hotel.

0:09:310:09:34

Unlike some of the other scenes that I've witnessed,

0:09:340:09:37

where I'm just passively observing, there's a story line going on here.

0:09:370:09:41

I can see an alien appearing here. There's someone over there as well.

0:09:410:09:44

I have to confess, I'm not sure entirely where to look.

0:09:440:09:47

VR presents many technical headaches too

0:09:480:09:51

and not just simulation sickness for users moving too quickly.

0:09:510:09:54

Observers of the new medium say producing content also poses unique challenges.

0:09:540:09:59

Because you're recording in 360 degrees,

0:09:590:10:02

you're not able to move the camera.

0:10:020:10:04

You're not able to have a place to hide the crew.

0:10:040:10:07

So you need to develop new cinematic techniques in order

0:10:070:10:10

to tell the story that you want to tell.

0:10:100:10:13

Which is precisely what they're doing at another

0:10:150:10:17

Silicon Valley VR pioneer, Condition One.

0:10:170:10:20

This is the maiden flight of its custom-built octocopter.

0:10:230:10:26

It's carrying a prototype 360 degree camera rig.

0:10:260:10:30

Not only does it solve the problem of having a crew on set,

0:10:300:10:33

it also opens the doors to new frontiers entirely.

0:10:330:10:37

Really, you want to explore the worlds you're in.

0:10:370:10:40

We think it's really important to be able to move the camera

0:10:400:10:43

through space, whether that's on an octocoptor or a land-based drone

0:10:430:10:48

and give that sense of presence and immersion.

0:10:480:10:51

Right now, it feels like I'm being transported in a virtual chariot

0:10:510:10:55

through the halls of E3.

0:10:550:10:58

It's quite amazing that I can see people in 3D in front of me.

0:10:580:11:03

If I look hard enough, I can even see that Spencer Kelly.

0:11:030:11:07

Richard Taylor, immersing himself in reality.

0:11:090:11:12

Back to the chaos of E3 in a moment,

0:11:120:11:14

after we check out what's been happening elsewhere in the world.

0:11:140:11:17

Google has announced it plans to buy satellite start-up Skybox Imaging

0:11:190:11:23

for 500 million.

0:11:230:11:25

The company, which Click featured in May, provides high definition video

0:11:250:11:29

and still imagery of Earth using its own low cost satellite setup.

0:11:290:11:32

Google says it's planning to use the Skybox data to keep its

0:11:320:11:36

mapping service up-to-date and eventually could use it to improve

0:11:360:11:39

internet access and help disaster relief efforts.

0:11:390:11:43

Mozilla, the company behind the Firefox web browser,

0:11:430:11:45

has unveiled a smartphone with a price tag of just £15.

0:11:450:11:50

The device is slated to go on sale in India within the next few months

0:11:500:11:53

according to the company.

0:11:530:11:55

Mozilla make the operating system running on the device, called

0:11:550:11:58

Firefox OS, and has several sub-100 smartphones on sale

0:11:580:12:02

in Europe and Latin America running the software.

0:12:020:12:05

Finally, Google has admitted it and not aliens or spies was behind the

0:12:050:12:10

Webdriver Torso YouTube videos.

0:12:100:12:12

The tens of thousands of unusual clips,

0:12:120:12:15

prompted an investigation by Click

0:12:150:12:18

and perplexed sleuths across the internet.

0:12:180:12:21

Click questioned the company in May, but it wasn't until the upload

0:12:210:12:24

of this Rick Astley themed video that Google decided to fess up.

0:12:240:12:28

The mysterious rectangles are in fact random YouTube quality testing.

0:12:290:12:34

The search for extra terrestrial life continues.

0:12:340:12:36

The virtual reality developers are all keen to sell the idea

0:12:420:12:45

of immersive gaming. That's why it's so huge here at E3.

0:12:450:12:49

We've come across one piece of kit that aims to give gamers

0:12:490:12:52

not just a visually immersive experience,

0:12:520:12:55

but one which stimulates the whole body.

0:12:550:12:58

'I've used gaming vests before, most of them cover your entire torso

0:13:020:13:06

'with inflatable air pockets, to prod you wherever you're being

0:13:060:13:10

'prodded, or more likely, in my case, mortally wounded in the game.

0:13:100:13:14

'But the 4DFX Haptic Gaming Vest does something different.

0:13:160:13:21

'It uses just two devices called haptic transducers

0:13:210:13:26

'to pipe sounds into your chest

0:13:260:13:28

'and let you feel the noise from the game.'

0:13:280:13:31

I can feel my heart going, but it's not really my heart.

0:13:320:13:35

It's all fake!

0:13:360:13:38

'This box is the brains of the vest.

0:13:400:13:42

'It plugs into your device's audio output,

0:13:420:13:45

'and uses just the stereo sound to calculate the type of vibrations

0:13:450:13:49

'to use, and which direction that sounds should be coming from.'

0:13:490:13:52

That is pretty immersive, I give you that.

0:13:540:13:57

You can feel the noises of the gunfire, the footsteps

0:13:570:14:00

as they're happening.

0:14:000:14:01

You do get a sense of which direction they're coming from.

0:14:010:14:04

Even when there's actually not much going on in the game,

0:14:040:14:07

just this kind of rumbling you get in your chest

0:14:070:14:10

certainly adds to the feeling of tension.

0:14:100:14:12

'And because the vest plugs into the headphone socket,

0:14:130:14:16

'it is pretty universal, and will work with any device that has one.

0:14:160:14:20

'In fact, you can even listen to music while you're wearing it,

0:14:200:14:23

'if you really want to.

0:14:230:14:26

'I can't say that it's made me a better player,

0:14:270:14:29

'but it certainly makes me dislike losing just that little bit more!'

0:14:290:14:33

I've been shot!

0:14:360:14:38

Oh, no! I've been shot!

0:14:380:14:40

Ooh. That's quite tense!

0:14:400:14:42

And now back to more serious business at E3.

0:14:440:14:47

Microsoft's press event kicked off with the new Xbox head honcho

0:14:470:14:51

making its console intentions clear.

0:14:510:14:53

Today, we are dedicating our entire briefing to games.

0:14:540:15:00

And indeed, it was.

0:15:000:15:01

Time for some surprises.

0:15:010:15:03

With crowd-pleasing efforts like the latest in long-running role-playing series, Fable Legends.

0:15:030:15:08

A multi-player focused sequel with elements of a strategy game.

0:15:080:15:11

The Master Chief is back, but in old adventures,

0:15:130:15:16

as the first four first person shooters which featured

0:15:160:15:20

the futuristic super soldier receive a high definition Xbox One make-over

0:15:200:15:24

to be re-released as the Master Chief Collection.

0:15:240:15:28

Fans of the Chief will have to wait until 2015 for Halo 5 Guardians.

0:15:280:15:32

Apart from a brief glimpse of a new Tomb Raider game,

0:15:350:15:38

the event was solid but lacked surprises.

0:15:380:15:40

Meanwhile, Marc was over at the Sony event,

0:15:430:15:46

where it wasn't just all about the games.

0:15:460:15:48

Sony showcased its PS Now streaming service,

0:15:490:15:51

announcing it will be added to some of its Smart TVs

0:15:510:15:54

allowing them to stream old games from cloud servers

0:15:540:15:56

without the need for a console.

0:15:560:15:58

Go!

0:15:580:15:59

On the gaming front, Sony showed off horror inspired third personer,

0:15:590:16:02

The Order 1886.

0:16:020:16:05

We got a taste of the platforming multiplayer, user generated

0:16:060:16:09

cutesy levels of Little Big Planet 3.

0:16:090:16:12

As well as the stunning visuals

0:16:130:16:15

and massive scope of giant sci-fi adventure, No Man's Sky.

0:16:150:16:19

Sony showing it was strong and diverse.

0:16:190:16:21

This is the second year Nintendo hasn't thrown an E3 press event,

0:16:220:16:27

choosing a video presentation instead, which is a shame,

0:16:270:16:30

as the House of Mario showed off a new open world adventure

0:16:300:16:33

for fan favourite character, Link, with Zelda Wii U.

0:16:330:16:37

The title which the console could well do with

0:16:370:16:40

to help combat archrivals, Sony and Microsoft.

0:16:400:16:44

These technology conferences are all well and good but, my goodness,

0:16:460:16:49

there's a lot of walking involved!

0:16:490:16:52

If only someone would turn the walking experience into a game!

0:16:520:16:55

Here you go, these shoes are fitted with something called Boogio.

0:16:590:17:02

There is a sensor under each insole and a box on the side.

0:17:020:17:05

Together they measure pressure and acceleration

0:17:050:17:08

and send that through Bluetooth to any device you want.

0:17:080:17:11

The raw data about how I'm standing

0:17:110:17:14

is all being streamed to this tablet, for example.

0:17:140:17:17

And you can kind of see how your walk, your run, your jump,

0:17:170:17:20

and even your kick can all be translated into in-game movements.

0:17:200:17:25

The Boogio creators have brought this to E3 to try and get some ideas

0:17:250:17:30

from developers on what kind of applications this could be used for.

0:17:300:17:33

So, here's a simple pedometer, here's a surfing type game

0:17:350:17:39

where you have to adjust your balance to stay in the tube

0:17:390:17:41

as you descend.

0:17:410:17:43

This will also work with more complex games and will work

0:17:430:17:47

with Oculus Rift, of course, because everything here at E3 does,

0:17:470:17:50

and Google Glass too.

0:17:500:17:52

There's plenty of quirky things on the show floor here at E3,

0:17:520:17:55

so let's catch up with Marc Cieslak and Richard Taylor to see what they found.

0:17:550:17:59

Behind me is a system called HyperSound.

0:18:000:18:03

It's speakers which send direct sound to a specific spot. I'll demonstrate.

0:18:030:18:07

If I stand here, you can hear the speakers.

0:18:070:18:10

However, if I stand over here, you can't hear them.

0:18:100:18:14

It makes use of an ultrasound beam to achieve such pinpoint accurate audio.

0:18:140:18:19

So accurate, in fact, that anybody who's stood outside

0:18:190:18:22

the audio sweet spot, well, they can't hear a thing.

0:18:220:18:25

Tracking your motion and your gestures,

0:18:280:18:30

not using a Microsoft Connect console camera or even a PC,

0:18:300:18:35

but your smartphone.

0:18:350:18:37

As you can see behind me, it's tracking 50 points on my body

0:18:370:18:41

and up to six people can appear in frame at any one time.

0:18:410:18:45

The way it works is that a chip in the camera

0:18:450:18:47

passes a signal through to my handset via a cable or a dock

0:18:470:18:51

and that is transmitted back out to a TV.

0:18:510:18:55

Google's announced Project Tango.

0:18:550:18:58

This could give it some competition.

0:18:580:19:00

Despite what you see here at E3,

0:19:010:19:03

computers aren't the only game in town.

0:19:030:19:05

The football World Cup is now well under way

0:19:050:19:07

as Bob and Stormy will testify.

0:19:070:19:10

That's football, all right? It's called football.

0:19:100:19:12

Thank you, not soccer.

0:19:120:19:14

If you want the perfect way to connect with fans and enjoy

0:19:140:19:16

the tournament, Kate Russell has the ideal destination next

0:19:160:19:19

in Webscape.

0:19:190:19:21

Rio has always been a colourful city

0:19:250:19:27

but right now it's flying the flags of the world

0:19:270:19:31

as Brazil hosts the World Cup.

0:19:310:19:33

Of course, the big social platforms

0:20:150:20:17

aren't going to miss the World Cup bandwagon.

0:20:170:20:20

Facebook is battling for social striker spot

0:20:200:20:23

with an interactive hub feeding the latest scores and highlights

0:20:230:20:27

from matches, as well as posts from friends, players and teams.

0:20:270:20:31

The sun comes up today at 6.42 and it'll set tonight at 11.30.

0:21:190:21:23

Gain of daylight, one minute 48 seconds.

0:21:230:21:26

Somewhere in the world the sun is rising and where the sun rises,

0:21:260:21:30

there is breakfast radio,

0:21:300:21:32

playing its cheery mix of music, chatter and travel bulletins

0:21:320:21:36

to get the world out to work.

0:21:360:21:39

Global Breakfast Radio is a fun idea that lets you

0:21:390:21:43

tune in to 24 hours of radio that follows the sunrise around the globe.

0:21:430:21:48

The site's creators have gathered more than 250 stations

0:21:480:21:52

from every time zone on the planet.

0:21:520:21:55

They include a German Oompah music station,

0:21:550:21:58

a kids channel from Russian Siberia,

0:21:580:22:01

and a Chamorro station featuring indigenous music

0:22:010:22:05

from a small village in Guam, which has been broadcasting since 1954.

0:22:050:22:10

You're listening to Shocking Vibes Radio

0:22:100:22:14

with me, your host, DJ Militant.

0:22:140:22:17

It's really fascinating to hear what different people

0:22:170:22:20

around the world are listening to in the morning

0:22:200:22:23

and offers a snapshot of the local news and issues in that location.

0:22:230:22:27

It's morning edition from NPR News.

0:22:270:22:30

Now, I just need to find a good excuse to eat bacon sandwiches

0:22:300:22:32

all day long too.

0:22:320:22:34

# It takes no match to give me a sport... #

0:22:360:22:39

Fed up with the football?

0:22:390:22:41

Minecraft's creator has released a new game, of sorts - Cliffhorse.

0:22:410:22:47

It took just two hours to code and game play involves

0:22:470:22:51

controlling a horse to chase a ball around a mountainous landscape.

0:22:510:22:55

That's it.

0:22:550:22:56

With an early access download fee in the virtual currency Dogecoin

0:22:580:23:03

requested on the site, many suspect it is a dig at this growing practice

0:23:030:23:08

on platforms like Steam.

0:23:080:23:10

You can download Cliffhorse without making a payment, though,

0:23:100:23:13

and while it is probably meant to be ironic, it is strangely compelling.

0:23:130:23:19

# I found myself a good horse... #

0:23:280:23:31

Thank you, Kate. That is it from E3 and Los Angeles

0:23:310:23:35

for this week.

0:23:350:23:36

After all, it would be a bit rude not to hang around

0:23:360:23:39

and bring you more from this part of the world.

0:23:390:23:41

So, next week we'll bring you another Click from California.

0:23:410:23:44

You can get your full fix from us at our website.

0:23:440:23:47
