The VirtuWalk technology serves a multitude of applications from gaming and architecture to therapeutic exercises and 360° nature experiences, as highlighted by VirtuWalk’s collaboration with the VR4REHAB initiative, which focuses on virtual rehabilitation solutions.
Diverse Applications and Features
With the VirtuWalk, users can traverse imagined locales solo or with companions, taking part in experiences such as historical explorations in ancient Rome or interactive therapy sessions utilizing EMDR techniques. The system facilitates comprehensive, real-time navigation, empowering movement in a complete 360-degree virtual sphere.
Staying true to its promise of ‘the world at your feet’, the VirtuWalk system is equipped with motion sensors and safety protocols that ensure seamless user interaction and halting the treadmill if needed, maintaining user safety at all times. The user-friendly interface is augmented by optional components like a curved screen and an integrated computer system to support intricate VR functions.

Originating in 2015, the VirtuWalk’s founders embarked on a journey to craft a more interactive VR treadmill experience, culminating in the sophisticated offering available today.
While not alone in the market—XR solutions like the Virtuix Omni One and Roto VR Explorer provide intriguing alternatives—VirtuWalk distinguishes itself with its aim of replicating real walking motions in boundless digital landscapes.
For enterprises and consumers seeking cutting-edge XR experiences, the possibilities continue to expand with the advent of VR shoes and tactile surfaces—pushing the boundaries of virtual immersion even further.
