A system and/or massage apparatus to obtain massage data from the massage apparatus (such as a massage chair) for control of a virtual representation of the massage apparatus in a simulated environment is developed. The system and/or massage apparatus is especially suited for a simulated and/or interactive environment such as virtual reality/augmented reality environment. The actual motion(s) of one or more physical massage mechanisms of the massage apparatus is obtained in the form of data signal(s), processed, rendered and displayed in the simulated and/or interactive environment as three-dimensional content. A user interface in the simulated or interactive environment may be used in a real-time or near real-time basis to provide a seamless experience to a user.
A massage apparatus including
The massage apparatus of claim 1, wherein when the processor module detects a change in the at least one state of the massage drive, the data interpreter is operable to select a relevant control data to synchronize the simulated drive in the simulated environment with the change in the at least one state of the massage drive. 15. The massage apparatus of claim 14, wherein the synchronization of the simulated drive is between 100 milliseconds (ms) and 1 second, preferably between 100 ms and 0.5 seconds.
