Company Description
Virtuix has developed the Omni One VR treadmill, a passive locomotion system designed to enhance the virtual reality experience by allowing users to move naturally in a virtual environment without the physical constraints of traditional gaming setups. The system utilizes special footwear that enables users to advance by slipping in place within a concave saucer, addressing the challenge of motion in VR and reducing side effects like nausea.
