Finally, even given all of the criticism of embedded reporting, there is a strong argument to be made that despite whatever criticisms can be lobbed at it, embedded journalism will always be beneficial so long as it remains a supplementary tool and...

Virtual Reality Super Bike Motorcycle Simulators Needed
Many young race bike motorcycle riders will attend super bike school so that they can hone their skills and become more proficient on the street. There are too many motorcycle accidents from crotch rockets in the United States of America and each year people are killed simply because they cannot handle the performance of the bike. Eventually if does that make it thru that initial learning curve they will become efficient and excellent rider, but in the meantime they can be quite dangerous.
Super bike classes are generally held on the track; a racetrack made for high performance motorcycles. This is where they will learn how to ride the motorcycle and handle all of its idiosyncrasies and performance issues. Unfortunately, the racetrack is much different than the street. On the street there are cars, which are always out there ready to hit you and on the track everything is moving about the same speed and in the same direction. Sure it is a good place to start but it makes sense to take this to the next level.
It is for that reason that I propose virtual-reality super bike motorcycle simulators. These simulators will have a motorcycle inside of a dome, which will actually be a flat-panel display and it will have actual scenery and real live simulated roads, turns and traffic. It makes sense to teach these young motorcycle racers how to ride on the street because that is where most accidents will occur.
The best way to capture all the footage needed for a race bike virtual-reality motorcycle simulator would be to put a camera on the front of a motorcycle and drive it through the streets of Atlanta, Boston, Los Angeles and also through many canyon roads with sharp corners and surprises.
Once the footage is captured it would go to a digital film room for editing and then it would be incorporated into a computer system that would run the virtual-reality super bike simulator. By doing this we could save lives and wouldn’t it be cool? Consider this in 2006.
