Turning dreams into reality is the PsychicVR experience that allows consumers to feel what it would be like to have the superpowers they've always coveted. The project put together by Fluid Interface Group allows consumers to experience the superpowers as if they were their own thanks to Leap Motion and Oculus Rift technology.
The PsychicVR project fully submerges users into the world of a superhero by allowing them to feel what it is like to have incredible powers to achieve virtually anything. The experience uses an Oculus Rift headset as well as Leap Motion controllers so that those participating can be fully immersed through sense and touch. The experience also makes use of the Muse headband that reads electric impulses coming from the wearer's brain helping to shape the game. Consumers can test powers out such as moving through walls or having their hands ignite in flames.
