While CES 2015 has so far been great for fans of video games, with news on the latest chips from Nvidia and Intel both making waves, there are also some far more… esoteric… applications related to video games that have been coming to light at the trade show. One of these is- no, I am not shitting you- a way to play video games with your feet via a brand new controller called the 3DRudder.

The 3DRudder is a sort of rubber board, and it tracks your feet movements, with each movement being mapped to a corresponding in game action. I would say think of it as a Wii Balance Board, but it sounds like it would be a little more sophisticated than that.

It seems to be made for PCs, and is easy to run, just requiring a USB port and a few minutes for driver installs and calibrations.

So, um… yeah.

Thanks, The Verge.
