The 'Virtuix Omni' Actually Lets You Run Around Video Games

The 'Virtuix Omni' Actually Lets You Run Around Video Games

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.

    It’s like these people have never played Call of Duty before. Damn tourists

  8. Só Jesus salva on February 16, 2022 at 1:36 pm

    I didn’t come to see the video, but to bring a message, the coming of Jesus Christ is near, repent of your sins and believe in the gospel of Jesus, Jesus is the only way.

    It looks awkward..

  10. Oliveira Luis on February 16, 2022 at 1:40 pm

    Better then this is to have the virtual space maped to the real room your in, so you can IN ACTUALITY RUN, because the place is maped to the map of the game, with obstacles and all of corse

  11. Jessica Roper on February 16, 2022 at 1:41 pm

    I’m sure heavy set gamers are going to have a hard time with this one🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️

  12. the hillbilly gamer ! on February 16, 2022 at 1:42 pm

    Who the hell wants to stand up and walk and run to play video games that’s too much like exercise you’re supposed to be having fun and relaxing not exercising

  13. Abu Fatih on February 16, 2022 at 1:43 pm

    7years ago?

  14. Riveravi on February 16, 2022 at 1:43 pm

    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

  15. Jefferson on February 16, 2022 at 1:47 pm

    Playing with this would probably ruin my running technique

  16. John Smith on February 16, 2022 at 1:47 pm

    You do realize this existed like 22 years ago, right? (And yes, I realize this video was posted 8 years ago.)

  17. the hillbilly gamer ! on February 16, 2022 at 1:48 pm

    I don’t want to have to walk on it like it’s a damn exercise machine

  22. Self Less on February 16, 2022 at 1:55 pm

    This is definitely a rough draft 😂 they had this sort of thing 10 years ago though not really new

  23. Midsummer Nostalgia on February 16, 2022 at 1:57 pm

    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!
