Hello! WELCOME BACK TO... VIRTUALLY ODD! Where we take a look at the weird past, odd present and unknown future of Virtual Reality technology. Today we have the VERY FIRST Full Body Tracked, Full body haptic suit for use in VR. This suit works with any VR headset, Index, Beyond, Quest 2, Index.. you name it. BUT... it's in an "odd" situation. SO, lets take a look at that!

what if his controller flew out of his hand and smashed through the window and it fell all the way down and you ran down the stairs to get it and then the little tracking part on the side just snapped off and you used duct tape to put it back on and then there was a shortage of parts so then you couldn't buy a new one but ur like the vr guy so valve is like "Frick it he's the vr guy" and they send you a one made out of their leftover scraps made of cardboard and then it breaks because the base stations can't track it so then it starts freaking out and gives you a seizure and then you go to the hospital because your index controller flew out the window.

You "feel" it in real life🥱🙄

Regarding shockwave; If anyone from shockwave sees this comment; know this, once get a headset, I'm coming for you. So please, do what you have to do to stay afloat and keep innovating. Your tech is the most promising I've seen yet at a price point that won't break the banc. For reference of timeframe, I'm waiting on the Deckard (returned my Vive XRE, it just wasn't working out as I hoped) So once the Deckard comes out and is true stand-alone (or if a killer stand-alone comes of the Samsung-Google-Qualcomm joint venture), expect an order from me. I have a good feeling you guys will hit it out of the park, just look at what Slime has achieved. The time your brand reared its face just happened to be the worst and most challenging time but it looks like you lot overcame it! Hang in there, you got this! :)

Also, to Thrillseeker, you absolutely are doing Shockwave a big solid by bringing attention to them. Your channel has nearly 700k people subscribed at the time of this writing. Hypothetically speaking, if EVERY one of your subscribers tuned in to this video and learn about Shockwave, that's a LOT of attention that just got directed to this startup that can literally lift them out of the dark spot they're in. Basically, if your followers see you using it and giving your honest review/impressions of it, that can mean the world to Shockwave. It has to... because it worked on me and now I'll be keeping a close eye on them until I get a headset.

Can’t wait for the point where we’re saying “so there’s this scene in Sword Art Online” to describe vr tech

[@Kev1nL]

​@Mr. Stuff Doer idk, the anime got so mediocre in later seasons that idk if people will really feel it as a relevant piece of art in even 5 to10 years. While Ready Player One wasn't adapted exactly faithfully either, they made up for it and made it kind of work in a feature film format. And the underlying questions about VR and the internet will only become more relevant as the technology becomes more ubiquitous, which is inevitable.

[@ConservativeJuggaloPodcast]

I mean it was a movie about literally everyone using vr. I can't even find many movies about vr aside from the matrix, and a couple other movies the names eluding me. The one with Owen Wilson amd Selma hyak is my favorite

Only because EVERYONE is sleeping on the Dot Hack series. Body suits were in the lore of the game in the news article sections, saying some players wouldn't want to wear it because their avatar would match their body proportions and wouldn't want that info out in public through an MMO.

[@treschlet]

As someone who's a partner in a small company that does electronics, all I can say is the struggle they're talking about is super real. All the huge companies could just buy their way out of the problem, but all the little guys were completely shafted when the part shortage hit. it's been a really rough couple years. I commend them for sticking through it. The fact that they're still around at all is a testament to their will to survive and to keep improving. I wouldn't hesitate to pre-order if I was in a place to financially do so (but I'm not, due to the same reasons mentioned above, things are tight. support the companies that are doing what you love)

honestly i feel like this company has a lot of potential, if they're making products like this with minimal backing imagine if they had a team that had the resources to look into new and better tech. Something like this suit could end up prehistoric compared to their future accomplishments, giving vr a more realistic feel and would bring more eyes to the vr community as a whole. I may be stretching it a bit far here but I believe the potential is there if the resources are

[@realtimestatic]

I can't believe I've seen you grow this big all the way from 30k. You've really done and outstandingly good job already from all the way back then your quality has always been amazing tho and you deserve every single bit of it.

[@gljames24]

We need a haptics standard that could hook into the sdk. That way, no matter what haptics you use, you would get a fairly similar experience.

[@MassDefibrillator]

Need someone like valve who would be able to gain from making such a standard to do it.

[@Giga1023]

YES!! Open standards are key, I'm seeing a lot of smaller companies making really cool tech accessible to a wider range of people so we need open standards to accommodate that.

[@10hawell]

If we get "standard" now in a year or so it will be so outdated it will be holding advancement down.

[@MassDefibrillator]

@@10hawell nah. proprietary is what holds advancement back.

[@GuuMonster]

The problem with standards is that usually if a big company sets the bar and they register that, then nobody else but the same company can use it unless other they pay extra for the license and stuff. So it's a standardized way to make every experience fairly similar but in the other hand it depends on how greedy companies are with this. I'm not saying they shouldn't monetize it but just imagine if Apple or EA made a standard of such thing, they'll monetize the hecc out of it and will leave any indie developers out of the loop by default or will at least be much harder to get into that, it would make it more simple to the consumer tho, but that's a tradeoff for developers I think. Unless the whole thing gets opensource then that might be a good alternative too I guess.

For basically $500, yes, I would think it's worth it. I would even get this over SlimeVR. And the wait would be worth it!

That may have been worth Thrill emphasizing more in the video, where if this product gets the chance to get ironed out then even at the $500 price it's still about $2000 less than the full setup of other devices would otherwise need for a comparable experience.

They seem to still be around, but they only have 6 games that support the suit, and they're not well known to get support from others. I hope for the best, but it's not the most promising chance of survival.

[@joanz4811]

I believe this is one of those situations where I think we as the people and VR enthusiasts should try to support this company so they can create a flow of these things for more people to use, so they can afford continued development and have a shot at competing before larger companies nom it all up. ~500$ for full-body tracking AND some haptics thown in there? Cheap enough to become mainstream.

[@ReadyPlayerTomVR]

Could you imagine if/when full body tracking haptic suits are mainstream, and become the norm for VR, where the tech is far more advanced than the best you can find today? It's going to be insane. Just hearing someone behind you with proximity chat alone is insane, let alone them tapping your shoulder first and feeling it like it's real life.. Imagine getting shot in the back with a burst of shots and feeling the exact points they entered your body in the game, feeling rain drops hitting your shoulders, being in an explosion with shock all over your 99% of your suit, hugging another player feeling pressure on your chest, arms and pats on your back, boxing getting hit with body shots that you don't just see but feel at different strengths depending on the other players speed, it's just gonna make VR that much more immersive that once it's made into a good quality, affordable, highly responsive product I can't see myself not using one.

[@TheFoxfiend]

So a few thoughts on this. This project is really cool, like insanely cool, and the fact that it is a real product that exists is insane. What he said about "I shouldn't say this as an entrepreneur" is correct, because it doesn't inspire faith in the company and the project. That being said, one of the scariest and bravest things someone can do is admit they need help and reach out. Doing so is putting aside all pride. I can respect that and I hope they get the support they need to not go under so they can continue to blow minds with new advances in tech. I believe in putting your money where your mouth is, so I'll probably be getting on the preorder of this when I got the spare time and money.

[@luislebronaponte2737]

That call really presents the harsh, true reality. This, technically, is of a niche group (compared to VR in general, then to other types of gaming). So, if not for the ones putting out content for those that could get others into this group, the economy behind this cannot progress. So, I get where they're coming from. Hopefully they get more ppl to preorder so that they can get the funding to keep the ball rolling and even work on improving the suit.

[@MalakaiPrograms]

This looks fucking awesome. Fr.

[@tehpyrotechnic]

This is really wild. I was never aware of this company and their suit before this video but I’m blown away by it. The video’s great, the suit is awesome at that price, and I really hope their product goes somewhere great. If I had the money, I’d love a suit but I don’t even have a full VR rig that warrants it. Hoping everyone that wants one can grab one alongside the previous preorder folks

Shockwave has the potential to be something much more and pioneer further haptics and vr tech, there were unfortunate business decisions, but this video could do so much to help them, here's hoping!

[@BDLeader88]

As someone who has backed a few projects over the years on kickstarter; some working out, and some not(Arpara 5k), the open honesty to the situation at hand is commendable as it shows humility but a strong belief in the product itself.

The transparency and effort here is really refreshing. I already pre-ordered Slime VR trackers a few months back, but they have a haptic suit without the trackers for $279. I might actually go for it at some point since I spend the most time in VRChat. I really hope the company survives because they could really accelerate the development of haptic feedback suits by competitors and be the first to actually make them viable for consumers. Hopefully they do a software update to make re-calibration easier and tracking smoother

[@XadeGrimm]

full transparency. Good. defiantly caught my eye.

[@wonder_platypus8337]

I know it would be a pain in the ass but I'd love more data in these videos. Like in a given set of time how frequent are the bugs and glitches. How quickly after setup do the first problems show themselves. Stuff like that is honestly really helpful in showing what we should really be paying attention to.

[@GodsBadAssBlade]

Way to many variables in not only software but hardware differences. Its why nobody every talks about every bug they encounter unless its a repeatable one or a glaring issue that everyone can see.

[@KiraSlith]

It's the right price at the right time, even at $500 a piece this is a good deal. So... I'm ordering one. It's not perfectly functional, but it's way better than not having either, and far more affordable. Ideally, Shockwave will eventually release their driver support code to Valve's OpenVR project so support can spread industry-wide, but just having the IMUs integrated into an actual suit is a boon in itself.

As one of the backers of this project that has yet to receive a suit, I just wanted to say thank you for doing this video. Their company does seem to be genuine about their attempts from what I've seen so far and had been providing regular updates about the project on their discord server and via kickstarter emails; though I will note the updates seem to have slowed down in the last few months which I suspect was due to their funds drying up and their priorities shifting towards fund raising to finish their commitments. I do sincerely hope this video will help them raise the funds needed to complete the project, but even if it doesn't, I still feel at least a little bit better for having seen this video and knowing that they're trying their best to get the project made, even if it is much later than originally expected.

I must admit that I've been in a Community that's had issues with pricing and getting things out, I've spoken with the people behind it and I've seen it go as well as can be. However I also was very skeptic that it wasn't a Kick-Scam, it doesn't seem to be, but now there's the payment issues; I really do feel for them wanting to price their product reasonably. The issues is now that they've proven do I pre-order at a higher price to pay for the Backers or do I continue playing the waiting game.

[@untitledsurfer8503]

The waiting game is really risky, because if they don't get enough preorders, the company will go bankrupt and you will be left with no device to buy at any price.

Yes, it sucks that the original backers fell left in the cold, but to make sure they didn't waste their money, shock wave needs to survive, and I hope it does cause of love to get one once I'm able to.

When VR takes off, you will too. Keep it up! Looking forward to the million subs.

Really Hope this product improves alot and gets massively produced and all these companies start supporting these device's

Love the intro❤

Let’s be thankful that there’s none for the crotch

This video makes me want this so badly now. Most of its problems can be solved on the software side. This, a vr treadmill like the Kat and a new processor/mobo/ram combo is all I need to take my content to the next level, I think.

[@Pebbs]

This is actually really interesting, ill be watching this company with great interest

[@benryder1213]

Man I'm Extremely jealous of you. You get to play in super high tech Vr stuff while I and many others don't even have a Vr system! P.S cool vid, P.P.S Why does your cat have a cone on at 7:25 ?

I love seeing another thrillseeker video. also thrill, you're the reason that I'm obsessed with FBT come onnnnnnnnnn. Literally my life goal now 😊 (Edit VIRTUALLY ODD IS BACK YES)

[@ThrillSeekerVR]

YOOO YOU KNOW IT!

[@rx4_ever886]

@@ThrillSeekerVR HELL YEAH MAN. Hope this project doesn't fall.

[@zombiekid2424]

Ive been thinking about vr for some time and after watching ready player one a few times and chatting with ai chat bots i realized ai is the main source in creating the oasis because it handles graphics, realms aka servers, and it organizes everything and thats why ready player one is so smooth

[@houlej19]

Shockwave looks awesome in the end. I hope things are gonna work out for them

[@Alejandra-cv7rj]

500 or 2500 I'd gamble I do think this Kickstarter has potential and I'm surprised the company is still afloat after the mess during COVID that sunk a lot of small business.

[@seraflim]

I'd love to see either you, or someone else if you have a link to it do a side by side with vive/tundra trackers using the same avatar in the same space, doing relatively the same movements and stuff. I'd tottally consider moving from vive to this if it means not having to slowly save up for trackers. But that if its pretty compareable tracking wise, even with the issues you mentioned.

[@beamis]

The future of VR is something I am SO looking forward to.

[@galacticaldread7234]

keep up the amazing videos

[@DiamondDepthYT]

I LOVE VIRTUALLY ODD ❤

[@ThrillSeekerVR]

YAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[@rickbhattacharya2334]

The potential of this tech and adult industry is limitless 😂😂

[@retro6575]

100% respect for the business honesty.

[@noodle_boi9324]

i actually want one of the suits its so epic and seems really cool to have pretty good tracking while saving a bunch of money

[@CerealBowlSystem]

RIP Stonx

[@rumrobot_]

This is unexpected, but it reminds me of OWO. When will you be getting yours?

[@JJake993]

Man VR has so much potential I really hope it gets bigger in the future

[@nameuser108]

Even trackers would cost much more than this suit, but they include so much haptics. Also you dont need to charge each element separatedly. This is so cheap! Really appreciate it being this cheap! AWESOME. 😊

[@redstefan6515]

when does some company do a (hopefully) open haptics standart, open would be great but even if it is licensed, you could make so much money off of licensing something like that, who knows, maybe it will be part of openxr at some point
