Hardware Design
Our game device is made of two detachable Rings. Players wear them on their hands and play using body movements. One player can use two full Rings, or split them so up to four players can join with half-Rings each. When tired of immersive motion play, players can switch to a traditional controller.
Immersive Haptics
Feel every action through responsive vibrations that bring the game to life.
Adaptive Heating
Experience warmth that reacts to gameplay, adding a new layer of realism.
Immersive Sound
Hear directional audio feedback that deepens your sense of presence.
Dynamic Light
See responsive lighting effects that sync with in-game moments.
OS Design
