There S Finally A Working Hoverboard In Virtual Reality

Fortunately, that’s something we can do in virtual reality. Like an arcane cyberpunk set-up, this virtual hoverboard is generated through a hodge-podge of external sensors and displays. Amsterdam developer Sander Sneek’s hoverboard uses a Leap Motion controller, a Wii Fit board, and a Kinect sensor to track your movements, while an Oculus Rift headset and headphones immerse you in the graceful simulation. The project is set to debut on October 31st, at Amsterdam’s Dutch VR Days virtual reality festival. Watch a video of a hoverboard rider below: VR Scout
