JTWorks Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 In direct competition to the new Deluxe Audio Strap that HTC announced, there is a new Kickstarter for a Vive strap that moves the weight of the Vive from the face to the forehead and adds a flip up display. The Kickstarter page is here (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1552002329/revolve-for-vive), I would be interested to hear people’s thoughts on this.
Sjokkel Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 I would love to try out both straps before deciding which one is best. The current strap could use some modifications as it's quite difficult to get a good comfortable fit at the moment.
Rockjaw Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Good luck to them! If they're smart, they'll drop by and tell us more in person. Reasonable Kickstarter goal too - $85 doesn't seem like a crazy amount for a headset strap. (I have no idea what the Deluxe Audio Strap is going to retail for, btw.) Anything that makes VR easier or more accessible to all is a good thing!
JTWorks Posted January 11, 2017 Author Posted January 11, 2017 Thanks, I wouldn't say we are smart, but we do appriciate fellow VR fan feedback. Which there has been a TON of on the Vive subreddit today. (https://www.reddit.com/r/Vive/comments/5n4ypn/revolve_kickstarter_launched_takes_vives_weight/) If you or anyone else in the Viveport community have any questions please do not hesitiate to ask. Cheers, John
