We are excited to announce the investment by the Jenson SEIS and EIS Fund 3 into Roto VR.
The Virtual Reality Revolution just got real! Roto, which has been designed for VR from the ground up, physically rotates players in the real world, to match their movements in the virtual – adding a greater sense of immersion to all VR experiences
By matching physical movements to those experienced in the virtual world, players’ eyes and inner-ear balance detectors are in sync – making VR feel much more real while addressing many of the inherent challenges associated with VR headsets – tangling cables, motion sickness, comfort and safety.
7 reasons why Roto VR will be an essential purchase for developers and consumers alike:
1. The ideal VR companion for retail, event and home use.
2. Combining motor rotation with headtracking – users are auto-turned to wherever they are looking, making 360 viewing immersive, comfortable and safe.
3. Roto’s bi-directional motor allows developers to create scripted 360 journeys; great for games, movies, guided tours and more.
4. No more tangled cables! Plug your USB and HDMI cables into Roto itself – the connector rotates with you, meaning you can turn through a full 360 degrees, again and again, and never get caught up… all while charging your battery!
5. Tactile feedback through Roto’s rumble feature.
6. An optional Roto Table attachment lets you take your accessories with you into 360 VR – just put your joystick, steering wheel, keyboard, mouse on the Roto Table and they’ll be right in front of you, no matter how much you spin around!
7. Works with all headsets, games, movies and peripherals out of the box.
