Robert Gets To Test Out Virtual Reality On Shark Tank | CNBC Prime
this isnt for 40yr old married men its for hardcore gamers, but its easily applied to police training, military, real estate, healthcare, rehab ect. its their loss becuase us gamers will fund this anyway
Military is already using something similar to this and your right , it would be a good training device for police.
No it wouldn't this isn't reality
@@davidgray7907 you’re dumb pilots are using virtual reality to be trained to fly aircrafts
You be surprised most gamers are quite slim
@@davidgray7907 they already do this fam minus the omni treadmill
I always look forward to Barbara’s ridiculous reasons to be out…she never disappoints 🤣.
Lol 😂
Same here
I disagree, space is a huge issue for many people. Even ones with with ok sized houses might not want this in taking up a huge footprint in their office. I feel like this would be really fun to have in a game room / man cave though.
they'd have to deal with their wives, well the wives cud play too, its not just meant for husband lol
@@abhi739 fr i play video games with mine every day, we both got our own pc setups
This gives me the vibes of a product that's going to be in those "deals the sharks regret not making" videos.
called it, they’re getting pretty big now
can't wait till these are available here, been waiting for something like this for VR
adding limitless omnidirection movement in VR is next level
these sharktank people haven't got a clue, in a decade VR will replace personal displays for most recreational use
lol mark cuban invested in virtuix omni
Perhaps not this specific product, but perhaps an evolution of it, yes - absolutely.
Meta is now selling more Quest 2 headsets than Microsoft is selling XBox consoles. $299 self contained VR system and it can also be connected to a PC. Omni is getting big and will only get bigger. Although VR was pitched to gamers half of them are using it to socialize and go clubbing in VR. There is room for a lower cost full body tracking as it costs $900 to get the Vive tracking system if you own an a Quest, as you need to buy the laser projectors those who bought the Vive or Index already have. VR gets way better when your whole body is in it.
Body tracking opens up an even cheaper omni option to be made.
"Look he's back in Croatia" is an underrated line! Hilarious
I couldn't stop laughing when I heard that.
“50% of people are married so I’m out” might be in the top 5 idiotic things she’s said throughout this show and that’s tough for someone who speaks no sense every episode 😭
very true, she's always out when it comes to big investment, she is such a waste of space
generational difference, she doesnt understand the gaming/gamer scene these days
@@apexgambitinvesting7148 She should have said "i'm not familiar with the gaming industry" or "this isn't my expertise" instead she tried to sound smart and made a fool of herself
If that was true no one would buy PlayStations
Why do they have her?.. she's getting paid for saying I'm out the whole time
"Look he's back in Croatia" .. underrated lol
Ikr!
🤣🤣🤣
This episode made the sharks look old and outdated AF lol
people can take over this and mimic this so it's hard to see this survive or go big in the future
@Atharv Naidu if a company had a 2% chance of being Microsoft, you would buy it for $2 million… 2% of 1 trillion even is $20 billion vs a $20million valuation… technically the chance it becomes as big as Microsoft is like 0.00000000002%
@Atharv Naidu them getting bought out is a valid exit strategy if it’s higher than the valuation the sharks buy in
Well this episode was 9 years ago says where the product. If it was good enough the sharks would have egg on there face, just another reason they are millionaires and we're writing and reading UA-cam comments lol
Seriously
Hard core gamers would love this. The more they feel like they are part of the game the better. I think there is a really big market for this.
the key word is "hard core." Not everyone is hard core and once you hit certain age, you will stop playing video games so yeah. Also this technology can be duplicated
Agreed with both of you but the biggest hurdle would be exclusivity for this product. The reaction times would be slower and more realistic. I wouldn’t want to play using this device and VR against console players.
I'm not a hardcore gamer and I want it. I wish it had a foldable solution to lean it against the wall until ready to use but other than that I would. I think people underestimate the amount of $$ gamers put into their hobby.
My friends are casuals. We love this thing. It's annoying playing standing still on oculus
@@jadentran9895 Agreed that not everyone is "hard core", but in the sales pitch, he did say converting 1 in 20 VR gamers to this would be ideal. I guess my question is - Would it be reasonable to think there is 1 hardcore gamer out of 20 gamers?
Can't believe how short-sighted the Sharks were. I truly believe this would take off so much
nope. its had over 10 years and it has gone nowhere. you cant tell me thats because they didnt get an investment from the "sharks"
@@nickclark18 probably why I'm not a shark...lol!
@@nickclark18 with the metaverse coming its not gona be the same
@@nickclark18 Gone nowhere? Try doing some research.
It's not going to take off
"Look he's back in croatia"
LMFAO that's so ruthless
I couldn't hold my laughter for that one.
he shouldve brought up the fact that gamers are pairing this technology with $500 - $2,000 pcs so its not like the consumer cant afford this or wouldnt try it for an additional $500
Yeah gaming computer ca cost up to $8,000 or more.
Same with next gen consoles, they run like what? $500-600 a piece now easily. Then you need a $60 game, a $60 controller, $120 harddrive, ect. But your pc point is absolutely correct. He could have done a much better job at pitching it, the price thing alone. I was like, that's nothing for what it is. Even if you get bored of running on it.
@@brucelee5576 it can, but most people aren't spending anywhere near that lol
Except it's not 500$ it's 1500$
The sharks didn’t understand the concept, its a cool product that pairs up with existing vr but the machines gives access to mobility within the game which is what players would think cool right, plus it should be patented
Military training exercises, Cops, other professionals, training exercises, idk..its an awesome walking device. like a treadmil, Walkmil
Yup, that's where thus guy should have started. I mean, didn't all video games come as a result of military research anyway.
You are unto something there.
That's the pitch bro. In the colder months you can stay sharp too.
The Omni is already in a few arcades in the US. I got to try it out a few months ago and it really is awesome!
I don't see how they would supply the shoes without turning into a bowling alley style situation.
@@expertexcavatinginc they kind of did. They made slips that go over your shoes
@@darknessbecome oh. Wow. Cool thanks for the info
Arcades near me already have lots of things way better than this especially at dave and busters and other establishments this isn't new technology
i tried one a few months ago, didnt break my neck but jacked it up something fierce. there was no safty belt like they show in this episode.
Jokes on him, we're already in a virtual reality.
DMT has entered the chat
You know something funnier a grown man playing video games
I’ve never really understood how people can actually believe in were in a virtual reality or a simulation...
@@lifenote1725 Exactly me too!
@@yenespace406 it’s literally and physically impossible.
This episode makes clear that the Sharks are getting old. Expecting the additional items to be included in the price he mentioned.. Any serious gamer would absolutely consider this unique item, especially because of the price and the more realistic and enhanced experience of the game.
👏
People will spend a lot over time on gaming. The cost of each item is a bigger factor.
Not around today, so it's not about them getting old. They knew it was too expensive. Clearly there weren't enough "serious" gamers
@@3rdgenbobby962 The company, Virtuix, is still around. And now there are multiple companies making VR treadmills that are priced $1000-2000+. You feel stupid yet?
“People are married, and for that reason I’m out” -Barbra
yeah I wonder where she gets that stats from.
Yeah , does Barbara think no women would want this ? Sexist thinking.
Married couple will get two of em
Barbara should go to Japan, its not uncommon to see eldery people gaming in arcade store.
I had a stomach ache yesterday and for that reason im out - Barbra
“He’s back in Croatia!” 🤣
'“He’s back in Croatia!” 🤣'
I lol'd, but felt bad.
I didn’t get that ? Explain for me ?
@@duncanclan6186 Kevin imagines Croatia as a dystopic developing country and the game resembled that
@@duncanclan6186 Croatia had a war in the 1990s with Serbia.
@@duncanclan6186 Robert is originally from Croatia
I want this thing! Seeing the payment plans on the website, along with "wireless" functionality, gets me very excited! Granted, I am, and have always been, physically active, and also know that the main thing holding VR immersion back is the freedom to run and jump in a platforming scenario. Yes, people will be winded, but they will lose a TREMENDOUS amount of weight and we'd be in the best shape of our lives, and will be an end to motion sickness if the movement is registered flawlessly in-game, which was what is stopping my wife, uncle-in-law, best friend, and countless others from enjoying VR (The motion sickness).
Checkout the void its closed now but you could use a backpack and run around a space
I think this would be really useful for people who want to go on walks in nature, or sight seeing, but do not have access. Maybe a bigger platform to make the walking stride more natural.
Old people are short sighted with gaming...and I’m 50!! But I’m all in on tech crap
They did the same thing with makeup ... they laughed and sad they young lady was crazy to get into makeup with the big box and that her colors were to crazy .... she now is work over 10 million and is sold in target nationwide !! They need to have younger shakes on here because the younger generation has big spending power .... they say 800 was too much but ps4 alone was going for almost 1000 and it sold like hot cakes
Barbara: “50% of the population is married, I’m out”
Ok nah this one has to be a joke
I mean, her whole stance in general was that of ignorance of the product and the space so it's not that surprising lol
@@pokiboi135 and she is acting like all woman will hate their husbands and stop loving them because they buy this and is acting like no woman plays video games.
Crazy how this is being used at arcades now
I must say I'm shocked. I worked as a Manager at Xtreme Action Park this year before I moved to Germany and there is a 4-unit Omni section that is one of the best selling attractions in the entirety of the park. The Omni is a great product.
Dude, this wouldve been a great pitch a year ago when everyone was trapped inside. its still a great idea and hearing the price I really cant wait to get one, oculus VR is so amazing and it really will be the future!
I really want an Oculus Rift or some VR device, but the technology is progressing so fast that I keep waiting in hopes of getting something with a lot of kinks smoothed out
It's now $2300 :/
@@Mr-E. bro get quest 2, its really at great price right now and amazing performance.
Barbara: I’m winded just by watching Robert and for that reason, I’m sour crout.
All he had to do is show them a video of people using VR without it and how they can break things or hurt themselves from going outside of the playable area's they setup. This keeps you in a fixed position and makes more sense for people that really want to invest into VR.
Good point. I punched my wall twice while playing a VR game in a stationary position. I was sitting too close to the wall
At 2:22 Robert looks at Mark like a kid trying to convince his dad to buy him something 😂
This is badass. Not only making gaming more immersive, but actually exercising while you play. They could easily refine this, make some good modifications and sell it for $999. The running platform has to be bigger. This stuff is going to be huge in a couple more years.
LOL, it's been out since I was in Elementary school. If it was gonna take off, it would've.
I’d buy it for that much! That’s such a good price
that running stand was way too small I agree.
@@3rdgenbobby962They’re still “crowdfunding” as of August 2023 and they don’t have any exclusives with Meta.
people in the comments saying positive things about this are out of touch. People are who actually into gaming knows things like this Omni here are tacky and gimmicky. Gamers dont want this. VR headsets are good. But whole contraption setups like the Omni are a no go
I died when Kevin said to Robert, “he’s back in Croatia” 😂😂😂😂
BARBRA: "Oclious Riff" she's so cute
I tried this at my local mall here in Lahore, Pakistan. It certainly pulls in the crowds and can actually be quite a good workout. My bro and I played it together about 2 years back and when we finished there was a whole crowd around us. It used HTC headgear back then but here they seem to be using Oculus. Also, the graphics are much better in this presentation probably because they have improved it since. I didnt like the game that I got to play but if it was on something like a black ops or something and the a single run would help me sprint easily within the game, this can actually bring back ARCADE GAMING
This + Death Stranding 😂😂 a true walking simulator
Fun Fact: Sometime after this episode aired, Mark Cuban did end up investing in the company, and it now generates 9 million annually
Oh really. He knew
Barbaras husband must have nothing at home. "If I come home and find this (product) I'm divorcing my husband" 😂😂😂😂
There are so many possibilities with this device. What a short sighted move by the sharks. Do they know how much gamers pay for gamer chairs and PC's. Women also play games Barbara. Some spouses let their spouse invest in their hobbies.
I think this is going to be one of the biggest next thing and these guys will regret not jumping in on it, Gamers are bigger than most industries and people spend big of these immersive technologies that bring them closer to the action
Mark Cuban invested immediately after the show
Barb: “I can’t say occlius, and for that reason I’m out.”
Barbara. "people are married, I'm married, I'd really like to divorce my husband because he enjoys having fun, and for that reason, I'm out"
Ha😂 didn't you hear? It would take up too much space in her 5500 sq ft penthouse.
That is actually true. Women cannot bear to see their spouse enjoying things
I used this or something exactly like this at an adult arcade, cost 5 bucks for about 20 minutes. I was on a zombie killing team with 3 other players in a VR world together. We squad up take down zombies in a VR gun game getting new guns every minute or so and it was a blast. The arcade also emails you the footage from in game and in the room showing how funny the 4 players look in real life. Totally worth the $5 and it was packed massive line.
If I had to walk in that thing as much as I've walked in RDR2, I'd be a world class athlete.
My left ear enjoyed this
I lost it when barbara asked what oculus rif is 😂
🤣
As an engineer and as a gamer, I really love this product. I thought I could get it for 490, But it was too late to recognize them a year later. The omni gained popularity, already costs 2,000 per unit to purchase. A better quality version was 10,000. what amazes myself is I still want it 😂
Biggest L for Sharks. It's a huge company right now.
Yeah lots of people that went on there got a great product out if it without their support. I dont see why they would want these old lazy fcks to sponsor them and give them a 10% stake when all they have to do is crowdfund and voila
I saw something like this in a different video ages ago. The difference was the one they used could lower down so you could sit for car gameplay and easily stand back up. They also just took off their shoes and walked in socks.
Barbara never disappoints...😂😂
As someone who works in this space. I can bet the sharks are kicking themselves hard for missing out. OMNI has been pretty crazy since.
4:44 Barbara’s head shake is lagging in the VR world lol
Who is managing this youtube channel why did it cut off before the we heard from everyone.
Marks comment about immersive reality possibly going so the product could be in jeopardy…. Lol
Fast forward to 2021 - META
"Look,he's back in Croatia"😂🤣🤣😂
When did this episode come out? Video says May 25, 2021 but this had to have come out way before. Because Mark Cuban is already an investor in this product.
This came out 5 years ago.
Barba: This is a new technology and I'm old, therefore I out.
The audio on this video is jacked. I only hear the music but cannot hear them talking.
"Look he is back in croatia" 😭 mr wonderful lowkey violates 😂
Where can I buy this for $500? Can't find it
Lack of vision from the sharks. Seeing how Meta is gonna revolutionise the VR scene everyone would love to have this.
"Ready player one" 🤯
Waiting for this comment 😂
4:21 Then I'd say "Good riddence", LOL! God bless my "Gamer Wife", haha! 😆
mind: yes
body: yes
wallet: no
An Xbox/PlayStation is gonna cost you $450 and PC gamers spend $1500+ on their setups including a mic, headphones, speakers, rbg lighting and so on. Gamers are used to spending money to complete a setup so I don’t see the problem with the gun and the rift not being included. It just allows the gamer to build their own platform and allows for more customization which is what gamers want. I think this is awesome I always felt VR is not as immersive as it could be cause you’re just standing there, and can only more around a small area. I once created a max tracking zone for the oculus quest in a warehouse and it was fun to be able to walk around a lot more, but to have this in your home is even better plus you never have to worry about hitting boundaries.
No one: My right ear...
Barbara: I'm out
Update, mark ended up investing more and more.
This company BLEWWWW UP GOOD!
' look, he's back in Croatia!'😄
Of course you’re forced to stand and be interactive. That’s the point of virtual reality. It’s the next level of gaming!
I love how Barbara ignores the older active and younger active market who would love this. My kids, fiance and i would love to have this and it would burn so much excess energy for kids just sitting down playing video games
Damon they won’t revisit it they will only okay an hour a day... who cares? The consumer isn’t paying a monthly membership dummy. Once it’s sold it’s sold it doesn’t matter the frequency of use. He must argue the valuations on gym memberships as well. Hahaha
These will fill the new age arcades. This will be huge
This + meta gloves + full body suits in the works + VR headsets is a match made in heaven
Just like Ready Player One in real life 😅🙌🏼
I feel like they should use this in the military to help solders get a feel of bein at war…I think this is a great product for the military
There is much potential in this product.
Lmaoo.
Lol ok
My wife going to be just as excited as I am if I brought this home. Wtf she talking about lmao
"he's back in Croatia"
Why do I feel like that was a violation lmfao
Everyone roasting the Sharks but I’m here for Kevin’s comment “You’re back in Croatia”
Why music is on right speaker and voices are on left speaker?
Just looked it up, the company is actually doing really well and they have opened over 40 arena's of their product around the States!
lol @ the sharks reminding us how old they are. lookin at you Barbara.
You're trying to explain the internet to a room of dinosaurs lol. "I see the market fellow kids, I know what grand theft autos is"
WANNA SEE SOMEONE PLAY THIS LONGER THAN AN HOUR!!!!!
Hold my beer
This reminds me of that movie “Player One” everyone was playing it. I would buy it 🙏🏽
I want it how much is it
There's virtual cafes and arcades offering VR games. Like Barbara has said most people won't have the space to set up something like this in their home. Unless you're able to make it mobile or portable most people can play VR games without it.
Then you also have the price. Assuming you have a PC that can play VR games you'll still need to buy the headset which isn't cheap.
I think the best move is to get things like this into gyms. Running on treadmills is so boring even though I've seen some with built in TVs it's just not fun. Not to mention every new year there's a wave of new comers, and guess what I bet a portion of them are gamers that want to get fit.
Honestly I'm surprised I haven't seen gyms adopting this idea yet. Like setting up a dedicated VR area.
"Look he's back in Croatia" - Mr. Wonderful
New vr system that doesn't make you destroy your home is nice but they had to show playing a game that looks like it's from the 90s? XD
I love how Mark also gives Robert a look when he tries out products
This is actually pretty old technology I remember back when I was a kid they had these in arcade areas and in malls for kids to play with them so being out to consumers is actually a huge risk the sharks are right
You is old
As of 2023, they’re still “crowdfunding.” They have arcades but
@@Zurdo. Yup I remember back in the late 90s starting 2000s they had these in malls where you put a head set and began running around inside the circle
If people didn't want to be active while playing games then why nintendo sell millions of wii sports, this virtual reality is the future just the tech is not there yet.... but i could def see this used for like a fitness game where you run or even exploring or hiking similators
As soon as Barbara said, " Could you tell me more about what that is, the Oclious rift" I would have been out lol
They failed to get an investment from the Sharks in the episode. Mark Cuban eventually made an investment outside of shark tank when the rift was acquired by facebook.
The company is booming and they even have an omni arena now.
We backed this product on Kickstarter at the time. The company had huge issues with manufacturing and shipping. They were late by a year and actually beacuse of the shipping costs they would lose money so they paid back their backers with interest and only worked with distributors.
I am not a gamer, had never been one. But what I see here, I want to buy this and start gaming right now - at least for half an hour a day few days a week. And yes, 800 dollars will be a lot for me, but come on... this is like living in the future!
Yes the valuation is crazy, but that's how the tech companies value themselves everywhere, and of course there is a reason why.
1:57 Kevin went low 💀
Barbara: The name is in the word “Omnicron” and for that reason, I’m out.
That product or something like it will be the next revolution of gaming FOR SURE.
This is stuff I dreamed about as a kid...good idea and the price isn't crazy. If you are paying $300-400 for the rift...you can pay for this. I think he was being very fair in expecting 1 in 20 rift users to buy this. when you buy the rift you WANT the immersive experience and this adds to it.
"Can you tell me what that is, the oclius riff" lmaooooooo
When Barbara said to Robert “Ooo this is right up your alley!” that translated to “I’m out.”
This plus having a metaverse now this product can go places!!!!👀
VR is a niche market right now, and this is a niche product within a niche market. There are better investments to generate immediate return. But definitely cool product.
pretty short sighted that this could be used as a basic controller which can be used for aiming and orientating yourself in the virtual world. it would only take a single motion or click of a button to propell yourself within that world. therefore you wouldn't have to keep running for an hr straight- it would be exactly like a mech-suit or a submarine suit with thrusters. you would be able to endlessly coast through the 3D environment with no effort.
Mark ended up investing. They recently raised 19M dollars in a crowdfunding round, well beyond the 20M total valuation they priced their shark pitch at.
There is virtual reality now its awesome
