Are you familiar with Virtuix Omni?
It's like a controller that enhances 'VR', which has been a hot topic recently.
You can actually walk around in the world within the game.
Since it's difficult to explain in words, I'd like you to watch a video first.
In this way, you can walk around the actual virtual world with your own feet.
Until now, games existed in a realm opposite to physical activity and exercise.
However, if you use this controller, it quickly transforms into exercise.
Perhaps this invention could save people from the trap of obesity.
It can completely change the monotonous landscape of dieting.
You will also no longer get bored of running in the same place every day.
What's more, the immersion unique to games promotes people's motivation to exercise.
In the future, it might not be strange for the perception to become 'game = exercise'.
By the way, the price is 699 dollars (approx. 71,000 yen) + shipping.

Since some agencies seem to be starting import sales in Japan, it might be a good idea to look for them.
VR technology is increasingly merging the 3D and real worlds.
I can't help but be excited about what kind of evolution awaits us from now on.
