New Harness revolutionizes the Cyberith Virtualizer user experience

Cyberith is launching a new Harness System, that comes with both the Virtualizer ELITE 2 and the Virtualizer R&D Kit now.

The completely new design changes the whole concept of how people are held in place. In terms of the harness, nothing remains as it has been before!

The new harness is made of strong metal and soft cushining, providing a level of safety and comfort yet unseen.

Ergonomic

The shape of Cyberith’s new harness matches the shape of the human body

The ergonomic design — with the curved metal bracket being in front of the user and the almost straight fastener being at the user’s back — does not allow for any rotation of the user inside the harness. The system is well connected to the user’s body, ensuring the harness and the rotatable inner ring being always rotated in the direction the user wants to walk at.
This ensures correct walking directions in the virtual world, independently of the body size of the user.

Adjustable

The extreme adjustabilty of the Virtualizer’s new harness (as indicated in the picture above) makes it a true one-size-fits-all system, that is not a compromise. There’s no need for changing the harness to a different size and you’ll never deal with imperfect fit again!

Easy to Use

An index plunger allows for easy and quick adjustability

Moreover, the new harness is extremely simple to use. The only steps you need to do to fit it to a new user, is to adjust the index plunger in front of the user to his or her size accordingly and to pull on the straps to the user’s left and right.
In combination with the generous vertical adjustability of Virtualizer products, a Virtualizer upgraded with the new harness adjusts to different users withing seconds, independently of the user’s size or height!

Comfortable

The soft padding provides great comfort

As the new harness does not require any leg parts, it is comfortable to wear for men as well as for women wearing skirts.
The strong metal components in front of the user create the sensation of mechanical strength and safety, making it more comfortable for novice users to walk and run in a Virtualizer. Covered with soft padding on all points touching the user, the new harness does not have any pressure points with the user’s body. Thus, it can be worn comfortably for hours, without causing any discomfort.
