World’s first integration of commercial EMS fitness suits and Virtual Reality

Ever wanted to play a game which provides feedback not only for your eyes and fingers but over your entire body? Ever wanted to escape monotonous fitness environments and train on mountaintops, in space, or underwater?

Look no further! With the integration of EMS fitness suits and Virtual Reality (VR) headsets, Sourcenity has created the world’s first EMS powered “virtual fitness experience” in cooperation with VisionBody - a blend of high-quality, immersive, 6-degrees-of-freedom Virtual Reality and full-body, 20-pad electrical muscle stimulation, which together result in an entirely new, exciting experience.

PowerBeatsVR is a unique rhythm-based VR fitness experience with support for commercially available EMS fitness suits, as demonstrated live on the international fitness fair FIBO 2018 (www.fibo.com). Always respecting your personal limits, the experience can stimulate your muscles from a slight massage to real tension. Feel the power of intense full-body workouts while playing, fighting, or competing against others.

Combining proven fitness training methods with virtual reality environments leverages the gamification paradigm to provide more success, tenacity, and fun while training your body.

Sourcenity is a software startup focusing on creating solutions for Virtual Reality, in particular for the new generation of fully immersive, room-scale solutions like the HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and Windows Mixed Reality.

Sourcenity has been at the forefront of VR since day one. Their VR escape game Escape!VR – The Basement (www.escapevr.net) was one of the first of its kind on Steam and the first one to be featured in an IMAX VR Arcade. With their current push into “virtual fitness experience,” they have created the world’s first integration of commercial-quality EMS fitness suits and Virtual Reality applications.

Their vision is to create highly immersive Virtual Reality experiences and push the boundaries of this amazing technology. Accordingly, they are looking into new and existing technologies which can help improve the state of the (virtual) art. Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS), widely used in the fitness industry, is one of these promising technologies.
