I swear I invented this when I was 10…glad the tech has finally caught up.
You came up with the idea of a multi-directional treadmill, or came up with the implementation using spinning/tilting disks?
I was mostly joking, but multidirectional treadmill - at least for being able to keep the holodeck to one room and not have to worry about bumping into walls. VR wasn’t a thing yet so I had no idea how any other parts of it would work, but like I said - I was a kid. I’m glad there are “real” big brains working in it, though lol
Hey, every now and then kids have amazing ideas that get shot down by adults with no imagination.
