you virtual reality has already taken us far beyond what can be achieved with traditional screens and controllers but it has the potential to be so much more immersive we want to directly connect you with the objects that you interact with in the virtual world so we're building Athena a VR rifle controller hi I'm Sebastian co-founder of alien VR Athena is the end result of an extensive development process incorporating lessons we learned from our earlier prototypes and our successful developer kit the persuader we learn that the most important thing for a VR gun controller is perfect positional tracking we accomplish this with our previous death kit with an attached live controller but Athena has lighthouse technology built in perfect tracking makes you lose yourself in the game you can running gun firing from the hip or shouldering the weapon and looking down the sights every movement is perfectly mirrored in kick we kept physical immersion in mind with the details of this controller this is like a high-end racing wheel or mechanical keyboard from a realistic reloading action to a fully analog cocking handle to the powerful recoil feedback with up to 14 hours of untethered gameplay it's packed with impressive technology and built with gamers and mud the VR gaming is only as good as the games themselves and we recognized from the beginning that to make Athena's success we had to have the support of awesome game developers the increase of immersion is quite high when you're actually holding what you're seeing inside of the game and we hunkered down and went into this seek-and-destroy mode and having the actual item in our hands leaning up against the walls it was it was amazing I think the guys did a great job on making this easy as possible easy for us to do is doing the implementation of the SDK to within a few hours got the whole setup running and having a physical gun in your hands which you can actually reload and you know really aim really gave an extra dimension to the immersiveness when you play Arizona sunshine we're shipping Athena with two fully playable demos that we've developed and because it supports lighthouse technology Athena will be compatible on launch with many of the games that already support the HTC vive we aren't new to this we've already successfully released controllers to both consumers and developers as a team we're all really passionate about video games and we have been since we were kids we want to make sure we're building a great controller for gamers like us so we want your input
