Reply to comment by BenVirtuix in Virtuix's Omni One VR treadmill is finally making its way to customers by SAT0725

I'm curious what type of research you obtained to come to this conclusion.
I asked 38 vr friends (vr chat) a question:
"The Virtuix Omni treadmill doesn't work with your valve index or PCVR (steam); you pay more money for the treadmill + a new vr headset. Is it worth it?"
No, 38 times.
I also heard "why wouldn't you just get a Kat walk?" 4 times.

Most consumers don't use PCVR. If you showed the difference between the two types of product and the experience (hardware setup, software and game configuration, social features, etc.), to a less focused group, I'm sure you would have got a different result. As I mentioned earlier though, there will be emulation software as well, which is a different proposition from the one you presented.
