Virtual Reality Jump Training

Recommended Posts

Hi...we have been working for awhile now on a virtual reality parachute flight simulator.  We call it skydiVR.

To help you understand, we recently recorded this video of a group jump into the Deland VR DZ.  

You can watch here:  https://youtu.be/6pje3c_Jtd4

If you have a VR rig, come and join us every Sunday.  We have several other DZ's...

i have an idea i was working on with vr, if you'd like to talk about incorporating it into your program hit me up and we can talk offline.  i was going to work on something like this, but yours is farther along than mine.  i have a tendency to start lots of projects and they take a while.

Interesting development! Does it run on Oculus Go?

Sorry we have found the Oculus Go does not have enough computing power to render the 360 3D environment as a realistic experinece.  I will keep this post updated with developments.

If you have a VR ready PC and either Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, I'd be happy to provide to you a test license.  Which dropzone do you call home?

wv skydivers, unfortunately i don't yet have a vr box setup.  that is in the works for later in the year.  i was more interested in sharing an idea and the work i have done so far integrating outside sensors into a fully immersive vr experience.  think having the whole skydiving experience with a system of cables and sensors on a suit that lifts you up and even has fans that simulate air movement.  i am working on the sensors, but am not the programmer i thought i was and would love to see someone get it working.  the biggest thing i have achieved so far is the floor that allows you to simulate walking while standing still.
