Flying through (virtual) reality | Patrik Künzler | TEDxZurich

[@seldaterek5105]

I know this man from our childhood. He is a designer, a real designer, by birth. When he was 17, he was designing race cars... Those other medical things came after... He integrated two major experience and created a chair which is not only a chair but a device submitting you freedom sense when you are supposed to be stable also... This product is a result of a real agility...

[@rgolten]

This is super Patrik & I have just sent a link to my web list. Your journey is inspirational and the development of your invention gives hope for the future health of a whole generation of human beings whose bodies would otherwise be atrophying on outdated static seating

[@jaketheultimate]

Being a Computer Science and Maths student, I worry a lot about my health because of the amount of time I have to spend at a desk. Unfortunately, this chair costs something like seven grand and has no North American distributor. I REALLY hope this takes off and mass production takes the price down and availability up in the next couple of years.

+jaketheultimate agreed

+jaketheultimate A KZbinr I follow that used to be a full-time software developer before switching to KZbin uses the "Haag Capisco" chair, ( www.haginc.com/products/hag-capisco/ ), which he bought while he was still working as a developer, and really recommends it to everyone who spend a lot of time at a desk. Disclaimer: he is not sponsored by the company (Haag) and has been using it for quite some time (definitely more than a year).

A lot of HTC Vive owners are reporting how exercising in virtual reality with games like "Holopoint", "Audioshield" and "Hover Junkers" works miracles on their fitness, helath, backpains and so on. If you play these games, everyday is leg day and you could do it just next to your computer! It would have you jumping around in excitement everyday, getting healthy while playing the best games you can play on this planet right now ;) (And no, I don't work for HTC, I'm just a fanboy)

Watching things like this makes me depressed on how meaningless my life is.. The dude was motivated since he was a boy, he studied during summer ffs. RESPECT That's all I can say.

[@brunofuentes3585]

Same

[@MehdiNPartDeux]

+Samir Raki maybe your past life has been "meaningless"...but we do not live in the past, we are in the current and future...so take action now and give meaning to your future past

[@samirr.8021]

MehdiNPartDeux easy to say buddy ._. Doing my best tho

[@MehdiNPartDeux]

+Samir Raki "Doing my best tho"...that's really all that matters :)

[@greenspand]

+MehdiNPartDeux That's the problem. Doing the best is not enough. How can one tell he/she are doing their best?

[@blueorangelettuce]

Impressive, fantastic and wonderful.

[@MrUndecisive]

This chair needs to be cheaper and used everywhere. Make it $200 and give it to schools. Pitch it to businesses.

[@Talon3000]

I somehow want a chair like that.

[@Ferfe84]

Guys talking about price, these chairs will be cheaper and cheaper with every upcoming year, but at first they must to make it more worldwide known/ know how to market it better to potential customers (because that product is fucking awesome, if you know from health perspective how your body is slowly, but surely damaged from sitting, and this is the way how to improve that, better than fitball for example), and after that there will come another companies who will do the same (if this project take off, after few years it will be selled in Ikea too, at fraction cost of what it is now). This is sign of how capitalism is great in moving our society forward.

[@jindiana7742]

this is so cool!!

[@MogulProductions]

sadly the chair costs 7'000 USD

[@mandymoe6493]

Can I actually buy this chair somewhere? I want to become and editor and there I will have to sit a lot. So this chair looks as if it would be really great for my back.

[@pklimbic]

+Mandy Moe You can buy it from us, Mandy, email me at [e-mail]

[@colaphoenix6849]

[@colaphoenix6849]

***** it's fine. and no i wasn't. why would he do that.. he doesn't seem like the kinda person that would do that at all.. probably because he knows how it feels.... and how it effected him....

[@BeYourself24x7]

nice

[@Yggdrasill21]

What's this chair called?

[@TheArezmendi]

Im tired :(

[@TheNeilDarby]

+TheArezmendi same.

[@OwlTeaGames]

Sorry to be a downer, but the five minutes of bragging about how awesome this guy is kinda ruined the rest of this video. I love the idea of the chair and the science behind it. Cut out the first 11 minutes and you have a good video.

[@minne_music]

First like and comment!

[@ipmur]

Shut up and take my money! :-) Where can i buy this chair?

[@pklimbic]

+ipmur email me, [e-mail]

[@conman2317]

This thing seems gimmicky like some billy may's crap; I don't see any reviews of this where people are blown away either.

[@ZiyadBinHisham]
