Notably, the company will announce support for Google Daydream next month. The $99 device (available for $89 as a pre-order) comes with all seven games, which work on the Rift, Vive, and Gear VR. The company plans to take orders starting now on its own site and will be shipping them around the September time frame. The work VirZOOM is doing with Life Fitness also requires repurposing the resistance functions of the exercise bicycles so that those mechanisms tie into the action of a game-say, if the game takes you up a hill, the pedaling will get more difficult, and so on. The company is in the pilot phase with Life Fitness in a variety of gyms, so we'll certainly find out soon if people will truly do this in a public setting. Instead, you’ll have to use the controller you’d use with your VR system. The only thing you’ll miss out on is the controllers on the handlebars of the full bike, which were handy. Directional tracking takes advantage of the HMD sensors. It pairs with a smartphone if you’re using the Samsung Gear VR, or a Bluetooth dongle if you’re connecting to a PC. The VZ Sense does everything the VirZOOM bike can do, in that it measures your speed and distance.
