twentyseconds (01/12/2016) [-] i went to an electronic show the other day and for gaming treadmills they actually have something way cooler i never would have thought of.
they put you in a harness and stand you in a smooth bowl with slippery shoes, you basically glide walk on the smooth surface while the harness holds you in place. Ive seen people get to a full sprint in one.

And some fans that can change speed to simulate wind or temperatures!

I could only find one with the wiimotes. I've been searching since your first comment for those ones with the VR gloves, but none were used on a treadmill with oculus rift or any VR headset.

if some day we can connect treadmills to actual walking in a game, no fast traveling, gamers will end up being the fittest people alive

anangrytaco (01/12/2016) [-] Look, I get the whole thing with the vr head set thing and a thread mil. But **** , I would have neck injuries and lose 1302161 lbs from walking so much.
I like just staring one way and moving my fingers.
I enjoy being a potatoe

I just saw this at CES. They are working on an optical version that does not need the harness. They also have figured out how to make it feel like you are going up or down hill. They do that by using an algorithm to make you feel like your center is off and have to stabilize. The guy there said it can also feel convincingly like you are slogging through sand. Infinideck was the company.
