It’s been known for a while now that Virtuix is planning to showcase the final, consumer-ready version of its Omni omnidirectional treadmill at this week’s 2015 Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA. The company expects to start shipping the anticipated device, which is designed for virtual reality (VR) experiences, a little later on in the year. However an early look at the final version of the Virtuix Omni has seemingly launched online a short while before CES itself opens. The fresh glimpse comes in the form of a new video that can be seen below.
