VR-Expert-ICAROS-Demo

The client

ICAROS GmbH was founded in Munich in 2015. Since then, the company has always pursued the goal of revolutionizing the way people train and play.

With the help of an interdisciplinary team of sports scientists, designers, engineers and software developers, ICAROS developed various innovative fitness devices, the ICAROS app, as well as various VR games. ICAROS offers countless entertaining games and highly effective workouts.

Through the extensive range of options, users train their balance and reaction time, and strengthen their muscles. These motivating and health-promoting training experiences are designed to counteract exercise fatigue in our society.

The question

The revolutionary fitness equipment from ICAROS is compatible with smart devices as well as VR headsets. For this purpose, ICAROS offers various VR experiences.

In order to be able to provide its own customers with the appropriate VR hardware when selling the fitness equipment, ICAROS sought advice from VR Expert and relies on a strong and reliable partner when it comes to sourcing.

The solution

VR Expert and ICAROS decided to use the VR headsets Pico G2 4K and the HTC Vive Pro. During the consultation, special emphasis was placed on ensuring that the headsets met the requirements of the ICAROS experiences and that they could be run optimally.

The Pico G2 4K is a wireless and standalone 3-DoF VR headset that features very easy operation and a sharp 4K display. For an even more immersive VR experience, the 6-DoF PC VR headset HTC Vive Pro is made for use with the VR online multiplayer game ICARACE, in addition to VR applications from ICAROS in photorealistic landscapes.

Both headsets are very easy to clean thanks to the PU leather, making them ideal for hygienic and long-lasting use.

“We chose VR Expert as our hardware supplier because the team is very agile and can also deliver at short notice and in a responsive manner. In addition, thanks to VR Expert, we always stay informed about changes in the market. We really appreciate the open and straightforward communication.”
– Stefan Winklhofer, Product Management at ICAROS
