Abstract

La présente invention concerne un gilet conçu pour être porté pour jouer à un jeu vidéo, lequel gilet présente une forme de cartouchière (10) et plusieurs éléments produisant des signaux tactiles (80) sont disposés sur le gilet. Ces éléments sont situés autour du joueur de telle sorte que ce dernier puisse recevoir des signaux tactiles provenant de toutes les directions ; les signaux peuvent être reçus simultanément de telle sorte que l'action dans le jeu vidéo puisse être reproduite de manière fiable et réaliste sous la forme de signaux tactiles.
