Air Force Trials Treadmill-Based Trainer

⊲ VR.org ⊳ Virtuix, maker of omnidirectional VR treadmills, has secured a US Air Force AFWERX SBIR Phase I award for its Virtual Terrain Walk platform, a feasibility study rather than a fielded contract. After struggling to penetrate the consumer market, the company is pivoting to defence, where budgets, available floor space and demand for realistic mission rehearsal perhaps better suit its hardware. The Marine Corps already uses Omni One systems, giving Virtuix a track record to build on.
