I failed to add an important detail: When adjusting the exposure for play on CRTs to -7, then the frame rate of the camera drops to about 28 FPS. This causes the tracking to become more choppy. The latency will then be about 36 ms plus 11 ms = 47 ms (processing also seemed to take longer at those settings). This is not as bad as shown at 2:24 though, where Andrew works at 30 FPS, as the major contributor in Andrew's demo is still the 60 ms of screen lag, which my CRTs obviously don't have as much.

Wow, that was the best review of the Sinden to date, so technical, a tear down, comparisons, you are so knowledgeable! Why didn’t Andy use you as a consultant, no seriously? Did you try? Has Andy addressed any of your concerns and can you update the description with his replies, specifically on the poor quality of the body finish, and trigger issues, and any possible fox for the d-pad? If not can you reach out to him and ask, he seems very open that way. You mention it’s not your #1 gun, which is your #1 gun and why aren’t we all using it? There must be a draw back. I would suggest you add a table of contents to the description of the video, this way we could skip to and re-listen to key points as this video will surely remain a reference point. Great job again and I hope Andy uses you on the 2.0 version.

Thank you very much for the nice words, kind Sir! I actually was in conversation with Andrew early on in the project, but the contact faded. Not to my knowledge, but I don't seek drama or anything. If you think of it much is subjective: You could call the finish "industrial style", it's not bad or anything. My number one is the Gun4IR from JB Game Labs (the project was formerly known as JB 4PLG). It's a DIY system, but kits and completely assembled versions are planned. That's also the reason it's not super wide spread right now: Currently the users have to assemble it themselves or contract an enthusiast. Good idea, I will attach a table of contents. Yes, it would be great if Andrew picked up a few improvements. I really like his project.

I was pretty sure you will end up trying this one, what a complete and honest review! I've wanted an Aimtrak from the first moment I saw a video performing with Time Crisis, but the small issues it has have always backed me out. I've been using the Sinden LG for almost two months now, and I'm pretty happy with it, using it with 3 different screens and performing great with every system I've tried (I use a much thinner white frame than you without any problems)... but it's a pain to set up. It's just not user friendly. It is what it is, a crowdfounding device with support from enthusiasts and scene, it can't be compared to a fully tested big company release. A great lightgun, and probably the best choice for many people right now, but hope a 2.0 Sinden LG deals with the inconveniences this one has (you pointed out quite a few) because I lack the skills to set up something like a custom made Gun4IR... and the sensor system just doesn't suit my setup, I like the Sinden solution better.

Thank you! The Aimtrak has its niche too. On a small screen, far away, if the player doesn't move, they are great (sounds bad, but I honestly like it).

I am looking forward to the OSSC core to make the boarders in hardware instead :D

I can see some potential solutions for the issue of button placement, d-pad positioning and comfort and changing the handle to alternative, though I do like it for some games like HOTD3 and 4. This is definitely my daily driver for light gun games on monitors, though for TVs and cabinets, a Gun4IR would probably be better with its perfect solution. With Arcade Europe's new gun going through testing, it would give some good boost in the arm with competition with all parties involved.

Great review! Love the detail! But I have a minor correction for you. In the brief mention of projectors I think "LED" and "LCD" projectors are being confused. The known issues text shown in the video specifically says "LED" projectors aren't recommended. The Hitachi projector mentioned is NOT an LED projector, it's an LCD projector. These are two totally different things. "LED" projector refers to using an LED for the light source instead of a traditional lamp. They are very cheap, anywhere from $50 to $200 and are very much trash. The mentioned Hitachi projector was a much higher-end projector (not super high-end, but still much higher-end than "LED" projectors) and uses a traditional lamp as a light source. I.e., saying that there was no issue with that Hitachi projector has nothing at all to do with the recommendation to not use "LED" projectors.

The two terms don't negate each other, but describe different parts. LCD is the light gate matrix. LED is the light source. If you think of other displays: Most LEDs use LCDs.

@@Boojakascha Agreed from a technical standpoint. But in marketing terms specifically for projectors, "LED" is used to market the very cheap LED light source projectors, search Amazon for "led projector" and see what you get, and THOSE types of projectors are what the Sinden wiki is referring to as not recommended. My point is that in the context of the video, if someone who is not familiar with the difference watches it, the implication is that "LED" projectors work just fine, when that can not actually be said based on your experience. You weren't testing an "LED" projector. It's like saying, "Volkswagen does not recommend taking the Beetle off road. But I had no problems at all. My Land Rover worked perfectly well off road." Sure, WE know those are two entirely different vehicles that don't even compare, but someone who isn't familiar with those vehicles might assume you're implying that the Beetle runs just fine off road. That said, again, otherwise I loved the review and detail! I just don't want people to get the wrong idea when it comes to LED projectors.

Yes, also CRT guns need time to track. With PlayStation era on-screen crosshair affairs those are similarly fast as the Aimtrak (faster when no reticle is displayed). The settings you are looking for are called differently on each monitor. Recommending "game mode" is super dumb and may make things worse. Basically you would want to manually turn off any processing. Look up your TV on Google or buy a lag tester device if you struggle to find the correct settings. The monitor settings are just another puzzle piece. The computer settings, the monitor type and the cable type matter too. Best you Google "low latency gaming" or something similar.

Thank you very much! Yes, firmware might help to overcome the pacing/stuttering problem of the recoil, and close the gap between single shot and full auto behavior. If you want the feedback to be more powerful, you could try several stronger recoil springs. I am sorry to say, but your delay problem is independent. The Aimtrak system is very fast, it can easily operate in the 32 ms region. If you do encounter large latency, you will encounter the same latency with the Sinden Ligthgun. The Sinden will NOT help. This is about graphics settings, video transmission and display hardware.

JB 4P Lightgun or Sinden Lightgun which is better?More accurate?
@Boojakascha

Both can achieve perfect accuracy. Which one you like better would depend on the willingness to put lights on the TV versus having boarders on the screen =) I like the JB 4PLG (now Gun4IR) better.

@@Boojakascha I got rid of my aimtrak because of how laggy the aiming felt. The aimtrak felt like dragging the cursor through mud compared to a proper lightgun and if the sinden is really that similar to the aimtrak in that respect it's a deal breaker for me. How much quicker is the gun4ir solution to the sinden when it comes to flicking to targets at opposite sides of the screen and how does it compare to a real lightgun in your opinion?

@@Phnix-lw2kr I have the Arcadeguns version of the Aimtrak and total latency (sensor fps, processing + screen lag) is 19 ms if connected in a smart manner. What you experience is mostly caused by screen lag, which can be enormous if connected/set not properly. This is not the fault of any gun though! The Sinden Lightgun will NOT change this.

@@Boojakascha Ok thanks, any resources where I can learn how to reduce screen lag and setup something like this properly? I'm aware of disabling any post processing on tvs but I was using the aimtrak on a pc monitor and wasn't happy with it so is it more than just that and how do I connect in a smart manner?

@@Phnix-lw2kr I see. You are right, modifying the settings on a TV is important. On PC it's a lot about: - transmission technology (HDMI, DisplayPort etc) - protocol version (eg HDMI 1 VS HDMI 2.1) - refresh rate - panel latency - image processing (like in your TV) - frame buffer The combination of these factors can cause the latency to be a low one digit number, or a three digits sloth.

When I aim the gun at my monitor the mouse cursor kinda wiggle around a lot, is this normal?

No, that's what they call jitter. Try bigger boarders or dual boarders =)

@@Boojakascha Bin halt auch mit ein paar der Lightguns aufgewachsen und echt überwältigt von deiner Sammlung und Expertise. Add mich doch mal bei Andy. Janek ist mein Nick. Man hörts raus, daher hoffe ich auf Deutsch geht geht klar für dich :D Ich muss bei der Sinden neue Thread Inserts einkleben, weil die am Pump Rod gebrochen sind. Der klemmt auch. Mich stört auch der Trigger Way und Switch. Würde gerne das 3D Modell von meinem Paintball Turniermarkierer dafür anpassen und noch ein paar andere kleine bauliche Modifikationen an der Lightgun vornehmen. Werd ich mit Bildern festhalten und dort veröffentlichen. Für Tipps bin ich gerne offen ;)

@@v3teran75 I think at this size, the distance indeed has to be large. And at the large distance the screen boarders might have been too dim. You can adjust the cam sensitivity, but then parasite light gets an issue. Gun4IR with a wide angle lens and very bright reference lights sounds like a good idea for this scenario. =)
