Behind The Scenes with the LATEST Omni-Directional VR Treadmill!

[@gregorywatine]

Can't wait to discover the full video which compare Omni One and the Kat Walk C 2😃 I can't believe no one did it yet !!

[@jBahrVR]

I will be eventually comparing - I mostly just want to have enough time with the Omni-one to make it a fair comparison, as I have used the KatVR treadmills for YEARS already.

[@OlenVR]

What’s just as important as the treadmill quality is the game library… if they stay exclusive

[@jBahrVR]

Agreed! It does sound like they are really working to keep building the library. Even mentioned talking with titles that I think you'd be excited about 😉

[@OlenVR]

@@jBahrVR Showdown??

[@jBahrVR]

@@OlenVR not sure I can say exactly yet. But one good thing to know is that if a game is on the Pico store, then it's MUCH more likely to come to the O1.

Hey jBahr. I was the guy a while ago in one of your lives to request that you try the Freeaim VR shoes and I'm happy you finally got to try them. I think your opinion matters the most since you actively use the slidemills so you could easily compare the 2.

[@jBahrVR]

Thanks man! I actually have a more private demo with them at the end of July, so I am excited to get more time with them. Turns out their engineer only lives a few hours from me!

[@shojo8708]

@@jBahrVR That's perfect! I knew you were meant for this

[@SukiHayashiGaming]

Been looking at omni for 10 years and excited to finally get my hands on one! (Pre-ordered one already!) I've had psvr and quest but never had anything like this. How would you rate this as a first time player? Also whats your favorite game on there so far?

[@Jeb.07]

How does side-stepping feel? Also i see alot of users keeping their feet on the ground alot more than when normally walking, does it feel unnatural or not functioning properly to walk/jog with a bit of bounce?

[@beerie8581]

What’s the lub spay you use to lub you Kat C2?

[@ImaginationToForm]

How loud are those shoes? And we can see the plastic and plastic scrape marks on the treadmill. I sometimes wish I knew how to make a treadmill with floor tile like in my kitchen and using socks. Seems so easy to slide around. But making the rotating part that connects to you back seems like the more expensive part.

[@pixelfairy]

I did this for a diy system before getting my katwalk. Its the quietest way, but still more effort in the slide than plastic on plastic (kwc2) Stomp worked better than slide, but slide still worked fine. Plastic on plastic is loud. When a streamer was using my setup, we had to switch to socks and vive trackers because her audience couldn't her voice or the npcs talking.

[@ImaginationToForm]

@@pixelfairy Thanks for the information.

[@jBahrVR]

I would say it's slightly louder than the KatVR treadmills, but pretty close. At some point I plan to record side by side and compare.

[@ll_0ll_0ll]

Possible to sit down?

[@jBahrVR]

Unfortunately not - currently there is not a seat option for the Omni-One

[@edgararcega3046]

So.... how does this compare to the kat vr 2? Im buying one of them.

[@rarehyperion]

virtuix seems far worse than the kat vr c2. The choice to make it work with only 1 vr headset is a terrible thing to do... all of their choices really makes it seem like its just to maximize profits since they have their own "credits" system to play games so you literally have to continue paying basically a subscription fee.

[@nyanduplo]

Looks sick but did I catch at the end you need to buy credits for the system to play the games? If so that’s a complete deal breaker lol no one is paying 2.5k to not have any games

[@jBahrVR]

That is correct - they have their own store so you pay for games on that store. I definitely understand this wont be for everyone. Its similar to a console in my eyes like and Xbox or Playstation, where they have their own ecosystem and stores that you purchase from.

[@tokakasike]

What program are you using for the AI eyes

[@jBahrVR]

The same editor I use - Descript. This is my first video I tried that with, and probably the last. I like being able to look at my outline and talk so I can get through it faster, but it just doesn't look natural.

[@tokakasike]

@@jBahrVR it looks good i almost didnt even notice its when your head bent down a lil i seen it... ive seen a bunch over people using it i just didnt know the name of program
