Cybershoes: A Step Into Virtual Reality Games

1. Have people lost their GOT DAMN FUCKING MINDS… this SUCKS… 1. you're sitting down and if you're so damn lazy that you can't play VR standing, you should DEFINITELY be doing something else (yes, very VERY few games are better when you sit down and after many hours of play, it can also be nice).. 2. What's the point.. again, you are sitting down.. so it's never going to feel or immersify you into the game at all..

   Stop supporting crappy products please.

2. And what about games where you actually need to crouch or get low? This product is only going to work for games that only have you move in two dimensions. I also see this as having issues with your height in game. What happens if you stand upright completely? Does your character now float in the air due to initially being tracked as lower while sitting?

   A good idea on paper, but fundamentally flawed considering the type of movement possible and usually mandated in vr. This would be better if the shoes could support standing weight and we had a surface we could actually "run" on without moving.

3. My abs already hurt watching this

5. In a flight simulator can these replace Rudder pedals? That will be super 🙂

6. im waiting for the treadmill .

7. It looks dumb but for the average consumer this looks like one of the better options over one of those static treadmills. I'm curious whether the seated walking motion will still cause motion sickness due to the disconnect between the game and your motion.

8. One word: K I C K S T A R T E R

9. Why is the dislike / like bar hidden on a promotional video?

10. Does this also work when wearing socks?
