Login to Kickstarter STEM System last year was such a device. The immersive body tracking device during the one-month fund-raising period, achieved in just 5 hours after the start of its developer--Sixense goal of $ 250,000, and finally collected a total of $ 604,000.

United States mountain view computer History Museum held a two-day "virtual reality Conference in Silicon Valley", the Sixense showed the devices that ship is expected to be published this year. It is a modular system for VR gaming service, users can choose what they want, which is composed of a base, two hand controllers, and consists of 2-5 Tracker (tracker usage can be decided by the players themselves).

On the output side, with head-mounted virtual display Oculus Rift and its open SDK,STEM to bring players into the immersive game world. User's limbs and even whole body it can be brought into the game, and players in the game to create a virtual character (Avator in English), so players have a better first/third person gaming experience.

Currently provides developer-only version of this device, equipment, purchase its developers free access to the software development kit (SDK), which helps developers more easily full body immersion virtual reality game.

In the "virtual reality Conference in Silicon Valley" live, head of STEM, Sixense creative director Danny Woodall demonstrates this product. After the meeting, Danny accepts the Lei Feng network (search for "Lei feng's network", public interest) for the interview.

Is not limited to games, because it's not mainstream

In the field of immersive game, apart from the STEM, and some rising star, also appeared at this Conference Survios, recently announced it has secured $ 4 million in financing. About Sixense competition environment, Danny showed confidence in their products. He said, Sixense in hardware aspects has powerful of core competitiveness, STEM body track system can for precise to track human action, and can will delay control in 10 milliseconds within, virtual Avator of performance technique also will brings new of game experience, "in game in the these virtual characters can better to representative you himself, let reality world in the of you and virtual world in the of you reached height of unified. "

Asked if Sixsense will always be focused on the game field, he said, games are not mainstream, but the majority would put the virtual reality technology into the mainstream. He said hope Sixense could in the future become a "tracking solution" provider for additional VR developers to solve problems, "the significance of virtual reality eventually will be more than the game itself. "

VR also will have to diversify

Referring to Sixense and VR when the next direction, Danny says, Sixsense next will focus its development on the hardware side, especially in somatosensory Tracker. They are also looking for other companies and organizations for non-cooperation game, such as working with some companies conduct some experiments on space research, and creative environment.

Sales channels for STEM Syetem, Danny said, it currently only accept online reservations, have not yet entered the mass market. "With the VR is known and accepted by more and more people, I think it could soon appear in best buy (United States home appliance chain store), I hope our products will open to all with no threshold, of course, we also want to make money. "

In Danny's view, their tracking devices than the game itself. In accordance with his vision, Sixense products can be widely used in education, training, health care and so on. He was a figure of speech: "some unlikely things to do in the future, or need to go to a high risk environment, we can use the device to simulate situations, to assess their feasibility and safety, so that you can help us save a lot of trouble, without risking lives. "He also stressed that virtual reality will provide many directions, to the benefit of mankind, the current games and entertainment is a good place to start, because it can attract people's attention.

At the end of visit, I mention to him the founder of Oculus VR before Palmer Luckey on Ant Colony from the China Science and technology remarks slightly offensive. Danny said he knew ANTVR Kit, looked after the video was interested in cool, it is looking for opportunities to give it a try.

As for Palmer's "cheap devices would undermine the integration of ecological" view, Danny did not agree: "good products and good experience will promote the development of eco-look on the good side, so I think it is to speak with product; cheap made in China could really save a lot of labor and transportation costs, low prices can be explained in this sense. If a product is a bad user experience, wear uncomfortable, no matter how much money I would have used it. I was that sentence, speak with product, can lead to good user experience is the most important, which can promote the eco-development. " Vera Bradley iPhone 6 Case
