Virtuix has unveiled Omni One, a full-body virtual reality (VR) gaming setup that gives users an immersive gaming experience by mirroring a virtual avatar with every step.
Omni One is extremely innovative, allowing players to jump right into the game and have fun by exploring, engaging and interacting with the in-game mechanics.
Omni One uses a treadmill and a standalone VR headset to allow you to freely experience movements like walking, running, jumping and crouching in 360 degrees without boundaries.
The hardware allows players to stay in one place on the treadmill and use a hand stick-like controller to move around the map.

The Omni One treadmill comes with an adjustable support vest and sturdy aluminum arms with built-in wheels for easy mobility.
No additional tools are required to assemble or disassemble Omni One. The VR headset for Omni One is the Pico 4E VR, a lightweight headset with seamless connectivity that delivers an excellent, immersive display. The HyperSense controller incorporates responsive haptics for better tactile engagement.
With SteamVR or a compatible VR headset, you can wirelessly connect your PC to Omni One and choose from a wide range of games.
These include popular VR titles such as Hubris, Peaky Blinders: The King’s Ransom, Ancient Dungeon and Death Horizon: Reloaded.
Moreover, Omni One is a complete entertainment setup that combines gaming and fitness, and the dedicated Omni One app tracks your steps, distance traveled, and even calories burned.
The setup includes an Omni One treadmill, a customized VR headset, hand controllers and overshoes, a foot tracker, and cleaning accessories.
