The Virtuix Omni game addon :)

The Virtuix Omni™ is the first virtual reality interface for moving freely and naturally in your favorite game.

The Virtuix Omni™ takes virtual reality to the next level— allowing anyone to stand up and traverse virtual worlds with the natural use of their own feet. Moving naturally in virtual reality creates an unprecedented sense of immersion that cannot be experienced sitting down.

Applications of natural movement in virtual reality stretch far beyond gaming: training and simulation, fitness, virtual tourism, virtual tradeshows and events, meet-ups and multi-person adventures, virtual workplaces, museums, VR architecture, VR concerts… The possibilities are limitless.

LOL.
Cool toy.
Ingenious shoe, surface combination to give the illusion of walking.
The lack of friction must need a bit of getting used to (i.e. as if you were standing in a bowl made of ice).

I looked at this a while back and thought immediately of AWS too. The price is prohibitive right now, but hopefully that will come down relatively quickly.

The shoe/bowl interface looks like it feels pretty natural, actually. It's reduced friction to allow you to move your feet along the bowl since friction-free would make you fall on your face or backside pretty quickly. What I wonder about is whether there's a way to modify a pair of my own shoes rather than having to buy their expensive shoes in my size.

Well there are some reviews regarding this in combination with Oculus Rift
http://www.oculusvr.com/


The combination of the two provides currently the most amazing gaming experience!

I would not be able to use Oculus Rift in Survival.
I nearly need a defibrillator when I jump off the cliffs in the game ... adding Oculus Rift to the equation would result in an ambulance being parked outside my house.
