At the upcoming SXSW Conference... Honda will give attendees a chance to try out a new mobility device... specifically designed for mixed reality entertainment experiences.
Users can steer... without the use of their hands — they simply have to lean into one direction to move forwards, backwards, sideways or diagonally.
