German students make life-sized VR Fruit Ninja, declare war on digital produce (video)

Do you benefit from the produce-slashing action that Fruit Ninja affords, but feel constrained by the meager display capabilities of handheld devices? Well, some German students from FH Wedel University of Technologies have created a VR version of the sport to make your dreams of getting more massive melons fly at your face come true. Using a CAVE four-walled virtual environment to display the hurtling fruit and a modified Wiimote to do the slicing and dicing, players can exorcise their cantaloupe and kumquat demons in a life-sized fruit cleaving frenzy — without any of the Gallagher-style mess. See it in action after the break, just make sure you don your Kikou first.
