We've invented a new computing device, applied for a patent, built working prototypes, formed a company, spun up a website and now… we're here on r/Entrepreneur to reveal the product to the world for the very first time… and get the crap knocked out of us.

Yes! Creating a video is definitely the next step. I thought about having the video already available before making this post, but I was kind of biting at the bit to reveal what we're up to.

We're also working on another website page to explains exactly WHY you would want to "put your feet in the fight." The genesis of the device actually came about because of using voice programs like Ventrilo, Teamspeak and Mumble. For those less familiar with gaming, these are programs that allow dozens of people to communicate simultaneously while overcoming in-game objectives (think 20-man raiding in World of Warcraft). All of these programs make available a "push-to-talk" mechanism so that the voice channel isn't full of chaotic noise. The problem then becomes one of having to hold down a key or mouse button to que your mic while also staying in control of your gaming avatar. Using the Pivot Pad software, you'd be able to map the tilt action to your push-to-talk so that your hands are free while also being able to talk to your team.
