VRFocus - If there’s one dream that almost every virtual reality (VR) enthusiasts and developer has had it must be a lightsaber VR experience. To capture the feeling of wielding the iconic weapon from the Star Wars franchise has long been a goal many have tried to reach and VR technology, paired with motion controls, represents the best opportunity yet to replicate it. Clearly Sixense, the company behind the STEM motion controllers for VR experiences, realises this.
Last week saw Sixense provide a new update on its STEM System motion controller for virtual reality (VR) experiences. The company revealed that it was currently waiting on the arrival of new circuit boards in order to press on with production of its prototype kit.
VRFocus reports on Sixense providing an update on the production of its STEM System motion controller, being hit with backlash in the process.
Sixense exec Amir Rubin explains how Sixense Stem controllers makes Star Wars virtual reality an Oculus Rift VR light saber video game in this exclusive interview from GDC 2015 in San Francisco.
