The adventures of the virtual world are set to get even more amazing with the Virtusphere, a new concept virtual reality system. The unique system makes use of a plastic wheel that is mounted on a wheeled platform that allows users to walk around in virtual environments. The sphere can move in all directions based on the user’s actions on the inside. Users are expected to wear a wireless head mounted display that syncs with a computer and allows them to play video games or experience virtual environments. What is more, multiple spheres can be connected together to enjoy multi-user games. Besides gaming, the concept of the Virtusphere can also be used as a tool for doing a virtual walkthrough of a building or visualizing any 3D object.

A great concept, it will open new realms in the field of design technology.
