While Roto VR certainly isn’t Ready Player One brought to life, I believe it’s the closest we’ve ever been - particularly for a home setting. In fact, the wide compatibility of Roto VR actually makes it a better system for immersion-seekers when compared to Hologate and other VR arcade systems, which can only offer a small handful of games and experiences.
The Roto VR chair is the most complex and sophisticated motion device you can get outside of a location-based VR experience like Hologate. Last month, I was able to make a huge step forward - perhaps as monumental as the Quest 2 itself - thanks to Roto VR: the world’s first interactive VR chair.
Merely peering through the looking glass is insufficient my quest for true immersion demands a full physical transportation into the virtual world. Modern virtual reality headsets like the Oculus Quest 2 have closed the gap significantly, but of course, VR headsets are still quite limited in the experiences they can offer. Since then, I’ve endeavoured to find every device, peripheral, or piece of hardware that can help me achieve my Ready Player One dream. My lifelong quest to find ultimate video game immersion began in 1995 on the day that I plugged a joystick into my dad’s DOS computer to play Star Wars: Rebel Assault 2.
