Hey guys, not sure if this is of interest to any one on here but thought I would share anyway.
I got an email today from Virtuix offering a $50 discount on either the Standard or Dual Omni.
If you don't know what the Virtuix Omni is, then you can read about it here or search it up on YouTube. It's pretty awesome and will go well with the Oculus Rift.
Extract from the email:
We are offering a $50 discount on a Standard or Duel Omni through Friday, September 13th. Visit our e-shop, and tell your friends to do so, at http://www.shop.virtuix.com and enter the coupon code “VR50” to get the discount.
If you have any questions regarding the discount coupon or just want to reach out, feel free to contact the Virtuix team at [email protected].
For those who want to know. This is a virtual reality type of device. This is the platform you walk on.
Costs:
Virtuix Omni Natural Motion Interface Price: $499.00
Virtuix Omni Duel Package Price: $1,019.00
US dollars presumably. And this doesn't include delivery:
Australia: $100-$200 with depot pick-up (http://www.e-go.com.au)
I'm not sure about the pricing model they're using. The Duel package has two devices but it costs more than buying two individually?
I might consider getting one of these if I had the room. Interesting concept.
The Gadget show in the UK made a fully immersive gaming environment with a larger version of something like this: http://gadgetshow.channel5.com/gadget-show/gadget-news/up-cl…
