The 'Virtuix Omni' Actually Lets You Run Around Video Games
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ก.ย. 2024
- The Virtuix Omni is a virtual reality gaming platform that lets you walk, run, and move around like you're actually in the game.
It's hands down the most immersive gaming experience we've seen so far. The simulator is currently available to pre-order at $499.
Just strap yourself into the Virtuix Omni platform, put on the Oculus Rift headset, and get ready to run. You have to physically move your body to advance in whatever game you're playing.
So, with the help of CEO Jan Goetgeluk and his Virtuix Omni team, we headed over to the Engadget Expand conference to experience first-hand how this platform works.

I can't believe how far gaming has come. If you told me as a kid that I would one day be able to be INSIDE the game and play I would burst up and down with joy and excitement that the future was so close and accessible to me!
Careful what you wish for!
I definitely want this :D keeps you fit while you play
But kills your eyes
Yeah hah
Hi there, i found you 😂
@@ramprakash8420 do you have a vr?
@@deemrick4385 nope I don't have one
And this was 8 years ago. I would only imagine what the industry would have here in India after 5 years.
Will surely try this one with my friends!
The time of post got me shocked
It will be expensive too... but I hope I become rich enogh to get into VR
There's a place In Japan where they have a completely empty room, but they give you a gun controller like this, give you a VR headset, and you actually go running around because that giant empty room has A LOT of sensors that track you. So for those people that say what if you want to jump or crouch, you actually can there. Also no wires ;)
Vr is pretty garbage without sensors like dang
@@taraseats4327 Lol wtf?! That's like saying, "A desktop PC is pretty much garbage without the processor" 😂
@@taraseats4327 My guy all VR headsets use sensors
@@AmazingElevatorsandClaws okay a couple I'm talking many, full body my boy
@@taraseats4327 that's because be technology is in its beginning phase think how better would it become after 100 yrs from now
gamers wil the most fit people ever .
Debbie Jackson Imagine Skyrim... Going on top of a mountain and back for a side quest... we will be marathon runners
it's me That would be pretty fun
This will be way more successful than the Wii fit

They found the absolute most uncoordinated people they could possibly find to test this smh
Orrrrr maybe moving in this fashion is a little more difficult than you realize?
I think it was to prove that even incompetent people can do it.
It needs a lot of improvement, maybe they could use metal marbles with tracking dots on them for the floor using a tracking laser to track the marbles movement, like in a "mouse" it would require sockets for the marbles to have as less friction as possible why being durable...or it could use mag-lev tech to act as a movement triggers for the opposing megnetic force so a sensor can track movement flawlessly using a movement or pressure sensor while holding you in the air with some sort of elastic garment...
@@ManaMercii its not those people were very very unathleticaly uncoordinated and i really didnt like them as people.
Now parents won’t judge you
You exercise and playing best
Invention only pro gamers can play with this is battlefield 4 I wonder how colonel in Battle field friends do it
IPLAY ROBLOX after 1 game, you'd loose 20 pounds
You would be fit in only a couple of hours if you played mirrors edge on this
Now the reason to stop isn’t cause your body is slacking off, it’s cause you’re not getting smarter. At least in different areas than coordination and reflexes etc
5 years later, Google recommend me this. I bet things already flop. The stress on your eyes alone is a deal breaker. Just imagine placing a generic phone in front of your face while you learn to walk on ice.
I would definitely be a king of this kinda game
9 years ago. 9 YEARS! I can't believe it's been that long since vr omni-treadmills came out. Technology has advanced so much
I don’t think it’s advanced enough
if you spend too much time on this and get used to it, then what happens when you return to reality and walk on a flat surface? has there any study conducted on this to see ergonomic impacts of this product?
yeah, the results of a one of the studies i read said liven the fuck up
Rian Byrne LOL!
Shinji LOL WHO DF CAREESDD
you start to jaywalk XD
You must be fun at parties.
What a perfect system.

@@AnonymationOfficial A LOT OF IMPROVEMENT
Only Buisness Insider could demonstrate such incompetence at WALKING
chriscos123 To be fair who would be used to low friction surfaces?

@@condorX2 virtual reality is a rapidly growing industry and eye strain hasnt been a problem for years
Ignore the "5 years later, Google recommend me this..." comment.
I was thinking to invent something like this for 3 years and now somebody made it, it's kinda nice though
Me too, and shocked that it is uploaded 7 years ago 😂

@@spark_sasane time tv means..
Everyone comes up with at least three, million dollar ideas, in their lifetime that they don’t act on. 🤑🤑🤑
They look like those babies walking with their movable circle chair thingy. :)
you are refering to a baby bouncer...
That accidental headshot was official! lol 😂
This video exposes one of the most fundamental barriers to achieving truly immersive VR gaming. It's not the graphics, it's not the disorientation or nausea... it's simply the physical effort involved.
In a conventional FPS, you can rappel out of a heli onto a steep ledge, jump out the window and bolt across a battlefield terrain like a pro athlete dodging bullets and air strikes, while aiming for headshots left, right and center with a couple flicks of your thumbs on the controller.
But to simulate that experience in an immersive simulation would mean you'll have to _physically_ perform your stunts, at least to some degree of feedback. Forget about the universal-soldier style FPS action we're currently accustomed to.. you wouldn't even be able to pull off a 5 minute long combo of such competitive gaming without having to pause from exhaustion. Unless of course you train for it like an actual physical sport.. and suddenly it becomes a much less popular pastime than video gaming.
Hoping they come up with an idea to solve this specific hurdle, cause honestly I'm a huge fan of the tech, personally.
That's exactly why Gabe Newell talked about Valve getting into developing a brain interface. They're already looking past VR.
This is what I wanted to, I want to try the virtual game like this but I can handle my gym. Playing a game and our muscle move on. Incredible innovation... Love it
what if you want to crouch or jump?
Crouch or jump
JacobIsABoss WOW
JacobIsABoss then what if you want to go prone?!
Dexter Morgan go prone
JacobIsABoss xDDD
Imagine someone making pre order 7 years ago and still not released yet today
I think making the walking surface a little less concave can solve balancing problem, but if it is this much concave for a reason then we have to find something else
"Ready Player One" 😂
RPO's version was better tho
I am scared that people will stop physically interacting with each other just playing and indulged in VR.
But wait
Ronaldo: •••
They should really use that platform as a therapeutic way to help people that have been injured or with disabilities walk again. It could adjut in height and the harness could catch them if they fall.
I was in a open webinar for interested investors. It was actually pretty great on this topic. They say a good portion of R&D is delving down this route & have started talks to medical studies in how what the One can be capable of.
I truly believe the VR body station(or whatever you call the unit) could be the next big scientific breakthrough to be apart of human recovery/therapeutics. Generally speaking we all know this would come to be in the future, but it’s amazing to see it’s in arms reach!
But can you crouch?

playing half life 2 in virtual reality? lucky basturds
derp steven Ah, was the good old days of VR. I remember being so exited for my DK2 to arrive so I could finally run HL2 VR. Too bad it no longer runs on modern VR headsets.
derp steven I fucking know right? I feel so left out
Even more lucky if it was half life 3

Yah it was half life 2
Welcome after getting this recommend after 7 years
Can't wait to get one of these! Will never skip leg day lmao!
Oh, how far they’ve come in just 8 years.

I agree.

HmmmMmm
I always dreamed about such a vr gaming experience. It came true
I bet they cut out a lot of parts where people fell over
Why is this video in my recommendation after 5 years
Was it immersive? "it was totally immersive, I had no idea which way I was facing after a minute."
Wow! You can certainly tell that none of them have ever fired a weapon!

This was 7 years ago .. and still its a future to me
I came up with this idea years ago. Should of gone ahead with it :(

Wow the history of gaming is still changing.
Once technology like this is mastered it will be so bad ass, but it will also cost $10,000.
I really wanted something like this to come 🔥

@@AnonymationOfficial yeah that would be cool . Just can't wait when gaming reaches this level
Looks like its hard to turn around
Needs a full minute I think and crouch is impossible
and impossible to jump
I was looking for it!

Hello
Omg, this video is 7 years old now.
Lol they all look like they never exercised before.
I'm waiting for the no boundary experience where you can move free with running and jumping and not run into or hit anything
Why are all of your employee's incompetent?
Can't believe this technology is 7 years old
I THINK WE WILL SLIP AND FALL
Same mee too
And now all we have to do is "ready player one"
Cyberith is better; it's better designed and allows you to do more things naturally.
Both similes and metaphors are forms of comparison that compare words in a sentence.
They can be used to make your sentences more interesting. How are similes and
metaphors different?
A simile is a word that compares words in a sentence. You can usually tell if a simile is
present in a sentence when you see the words as or like.
Don ate his salad like a vacuum cleaner.
His arms were weak and felt like noodles.
The thunder was as loud as fireworks.
You can see that the underlined words in the sentences above are compared to each other.
The words as and like are bolded to show that a simile occurs in this sentence.
Like a simile, a metaphor compares words in a sentence; however, instead of saying that
one thing is like something else, a metaphor actually makes one thing become something
very different by renaming it. A metaphor can sometimes use words like is, are, or was (and
other words) to signal that a metaphor is present. However, a metaphor never uses the words
like or as to compare.
The smoke was cotton balls billowing from the chimney.
You are my hero.
The sun was a furnace.
You can see in these examples that the first underlined word is actually renamed by the
second underlined word. The bolded words are bolded to show that the second underlined
word is something else.
Similes, Metaphors,
and Personification
Lesson
imagine playing PUBG or COD using that tool🏋️♀️
Did anyone else see that, around 2:35 where the guy shuts off the game but the screen came back on and theres to stick figures doing doggy style? 😂😂😂
This will stop gamers from being fat. Probably in the future, PlayStation 5 will come with this in s bundle. Or something like that.

When it comes out, just watch how fast Americans lose weight.
Not only americans all people of the world who buyed this thing. its gonna be expensive so like 1000/2000 in 2019
Rly
I sure hope so
My god such low level thinking you have. Your actually dumb and also need to know how to form an actual prediction
I've tried one of these and running is a huge pain in the ass. You literally have to lean completey forward just to actually move. It looks cool but it really isn't as good as it looks.
I could tell just by their reaction it's not awesome by any means struggling to even walk what trash
Boo this is only sold for commercial use! Can't buy it guys
Ilovesesshomaru sama Who wants to?
Ilovesesshomaru sama nice video
Ilovesesshomaru sama hey nice comment
Ismael Carrillo I would.
Ilovesesshomaru sama keep it that way bitch
Watching them brings smile
How much enjoy ful this experience .
These people are struggling quite a bit to walk around. I think they need to make some improvements. Why not an actual 360 treadmill instead of slippery shoes?
how is the treadmill going to know wich way youre planning to walk? there is one that has been built but its like 3-4m in diameter and has sensors that send you back to the middle when you walk around, sadly no VR but they have a big projector screen hanged up around so you get full 360 and 3d goggles if i remember correctly, also paintball guns that shoot you accurately where you get hit. but as something that you can have at home, i think this is the best option

@@mithshude search Infinadeck. Did it answer your question?
@@mithshude What if the treadmill is omnidirectional or like a ball?
Search for it they have alot of different vr builds and it's so expensive! 20,000 dollars and you have to be a corporation
This was wayy ahead of its time 😤
I bet this will cost alot of money only for the rich people :(
Do you know da wae that means you kno da wea
A quick Google search tells you a really good one is up to 15,000 dollers closer to 20,000 and are only sold to big corporations

Once i got a dream like this ..now it became real ..i born in india ..society wont support our thoughts and ideas..we struggle for food and shelter and cloths always
Idiot like you never do anything except complaining,go watch the story of raji games maker thats the guts
This could be uploaded today and people would still be as excited for it
imagine playing Super Mario Brothers with this, where you need to do LOTS of running and jumping! Must be real fun, good luck.
I really REALLY want this now
Not bad. But, I believe an omni-treadmill can be made. That will not let you slip. That has little to no resistance. Cause, you also need to rethink your harness set up for games you can go prone, crouch, and jump in.
imagine getting "hot coffee" in GTA : SA while wearing this device
Imagine going bowling in GTA V
An omnidirectional treadmill would work too. Or just a 'run' button on the gun or whatever joystick for VR could work too. Barely one finger will be engaged. For fitness though this look better but imagine a flying kick will playing fifa. These gadget has a lot to evolve yet
When i get old and lie on bed and wait to die i just need a vr headset
The first video game that parents would actually want their kids to play... Keeps you fit while you play indoor.
Can wait to see what later iterations of this will look like. I think it become even more like just regular walking without that clunky belt and mass around the torso
Over 7 years and this idea still is not gotten anywhere. It is like flying cars.
Eh it might not be the Omni but give it 10 years and I bet we’re going to get something out of this VR structure to help in some medical/therapeutic applications.
Right now they are trying to milk money from people to push out their home release model so we’ll see where this goes, the potential is there
I wish I had this system at my house.
Its been 7 years and i just got this in my recommendation
Same
This will take first person player games to a higher level
That standing Base design looks awfully familiar
funny isn't after all that evolution we are back to baby walker
So advanced . I think in future machines will take controll over us just like in movie Terminator
If something like the virtuix omni becomes extremely popular and convenient to have, it would probably change the gaming community forever
Wow we have evolved so much since this video came out
Brilliant gaming combined with fitness and online combined game possesses great future
Can't believe this is 7 years old video
An idea popped into my head seeing that. Human air hockey!
Future of gaming 🤔
People don't realise that in reality, they are not their body. And their experience in this phenomenal world is similar to this immersive virtual reality; only difference it is deeply, deeply immersive.
I really hope before 2040 virtual reality will be really advanced kinda like the movie ready player one
