Sixa Rivvr wireless kit for VR headsets is now available to pre-order

  • 205

Current VR is awesome! However being tethered to our PC is a drag. Vive and Oculus shouldn't be wireless for another year or two. In the meantime 3rd parties are coming to market with wireless accessories so that first-generation headset owners can walk without wires, too. Say hello to the Sixa with its Rivvr wireless VR upgrade kit that is available to pre-order.

There is no Backpack to carry around and unlike other Wireless accessories it works with all major VR headsets. The Rivvr transmits movements over a 2.4GHz or 5GHz Wi-Fi connection. According to Sixa, Rivver's latency is  "imperceptible,"  A limited number of Rivvr are available with a  $60 down payment. The full cost is $209 for the head-mounted version, or $199 for one that clips to a belt. Battery life is good for up to 3 hours on a single charge, though you can double that by upgrading the battery for $50.
