The future of VR gaming chairs is here. Check out the $799 Roto VR Explorer.
The first ever "Made for Meta" VR chair is here. The Roto VR Explorer was made in partnership between Meta and Roto and hopes to provide a new innovative way to sit in virtual reality with a patented "Look & Turn" feature that aims to enhance the motorized 360 degree seated experience. Roto describes the haptics as "full body" and the VR Explorer is available for pre-order starting today at $799. Check out this trailer for the chair.
Roto VR Explorer includes:
- Roto VR’s proprietary Look & Turn technology intuitively rotates users to where they look, solving the problems of 360º viewing, locomotion and motion sickness
- A built-in rumble pack that provides haptic feedback through the whole body, adding tangible immersion
- Developed for Meta Quest headsets and compatible with all seated VR experiences
- Fully compatible with over 400+ games and apps available from the Meta Quest store
- High quality leather seat with back supports, adjustable seat height and a footrest for 360º comfort
- Cable management solution and smart charging
- Modular in design and supports a range of accessories, adding functionality for different types of game set-ups (sold separately)
