At CES 2023, they showed off a device that could be the future of virtual reality. The device is a vest with tactile feedback, which makes it possible to feel blows, injuries, pain and so on.
The novelty is called OWO Skin and is available in sizes 2XS to 4XL. At the same time, it should fit snugly against the body. It is claimed that such a suit can simulate up to 30 physical sensations, including being hit by bullets, being bitten by insects, being stabbed in the stomach, being stabbed with a dart, being punched, bleeding, and more. The company uses special algorithms that create combinations of sensations using electrical impulses. The intensity can be adjusted in a special application.
Journalists who tested the novelty were very flattering about the technology. They stated that OWO Skin improves the immersive experience in virtual reality.
For now, you can pre-order the short-sleeved version for $ 425 (almost 30,000 rubles), but in the future there will be a long-sleeved version. The OWO app is compatible with Android, iOS and even Windows, and the vest can run for up to 8 hours on a single battery charge.
Recall that earlier at CES 2023 they showed off a device for creating scents in games.
