00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.600
thank you to Squarespace for sending us the CES 2016 this year check out their

00:00:03.240 --> 00:00:09.519
Link in the video description down below all right guys we're checking out the

00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:14.240
orus VR backpack this thing's pretty sick it works with the orus X7 DT which

00:00:12.120 --> 00:00:18.320
has a desktop 980 in it so it should be pretty powerful the demo that they used

00:00:16.119 --> 00:00:21.960
here today was Battlefield but okay okay what the what what is this thing for a

00:00:20.400 --> 00:00:26.640
while now people have been doing really ghetto ass cluggy solutions for being

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:31.039
able to run like a desktop rig off of their back or even a laptop with like a

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:34.840
chopped up backpack back or something so that they could play VR with the rig

00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:39.800
mounted on their back this helps in a lot of ways it makes it so that you're more mobile and it also makes it so that

00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:44.039
the cable isn't a problem which is really annoying if you want to be moving

00:00:41.879 --> 00:00:48.039
around for your VR experience this thing's pretty cool it's fairly easy to

00:00:45.480 --> 00:00:53.000
strap the laptop in the whole unit with the laptop and the backpack is only 3

00:00:50.559 --> 00:00:56.480
and2 lb so it weighs like basically nothing when it's on your back there's a

00:00:54.760 --> 00:01:00.640
chest strap which keeps it locked in place nice and tight there's pouches on

00:00:58.480 --> 00:01:06.280
the side of the belt which I actually didn't try on this extended belt thing

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:08.200
but that's fine um the the one pouch is

00:01:06.280 --> 00:01:12.080
to hold the controller they're having ideas that maybe in the future they'll

00:01:09.759 --> 00:01:15.320
be able to mount a semic curved battery on the back so that you can have

00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:18.600
extended battery life on your laptop and then for the touch controllers that'll

00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:24.439
later be coming for the Oculus they're thinking of having um little holsters

00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:26.759
for the touch controllers this is pretty

00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:30.640
sick but there are some problems like for instance when we look at the gun

00:01:29.240 --> 00:01:37.280
they were playing B Battlefield so this was one of the things that you aimed with the gun and the headset controlled

00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:41.439
where you looked so it was kind of weird cuz if you look to the left and move the

00:01:39.520 --> 00:01:44.719
gun to the left instead of having your screen just look to the left a little

00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:49.799
bit it did both of those movements meaning that it totaled to like here so

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.200
it felt a little unnatural when you're playing but I don't actually think

00:01:51.320 --> 00:01:57.399
that's the problem of the backpack that's just some other things that need

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:00.840
to step up and get to that level now there's some things that they can help

00:01:58.600 --> 00:02:06.079
with this as well it's a St in experience but you don't move cuz

00:02:03.960 --> 00:02:10.080
there's no tracking for your legs so I was playing Battlefield and just using

00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:14.200
the little uh thumb stick controller on the gun to actually move around which is

00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:18.040
not ideal but if you use something like a Vive this might be a much better

00:02:15.920 --> 00:02:21.239
solution or if you have a connect set up so that you can actually see what your

00:02:19.519 --> 00:02:25.080
legs are doing so there's actually any point to be standing at all then that's

00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:29.480
pretty cool this is still an early revision the rift isn't out yet the Vive

00:02:27.200 --> 00:02:32.519
isn't out yet so obviously this doesn't really need need to be out yeah that's

00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:36.440
fine there's some things that are going to be changing one of them hopefully my

00:02:34.920 --> 00:02:39.920
suggestion is that they're going to open up the compatibility for laptops in the

00:02:38.120 --> 00:02:43.800
back maybe with velcro straps to tie things down or whatever more orus

00:02:42.280 --> 00:02:47.040
laptops would be great more laptops in general would be great as well because

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:51.680
the more things that work with this the more other people are going to try to make things that also work with this

00:02:50.120 --> 00:02:56.599
that aren't necessarily laptops which is super super important wearing it felt

00:02:54.680 --> 00:03:01.280
very comfortable and all it really made me want was more of these things and a

00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:05.840
bunch of dudes and basically what you'd think of as laser tag but an actual

00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:09.519
video game in like a laser tag arena because that would be super freaking

00:03:07.799 --> 00:03:13.920
awesome to run around with VR headsets and play laser tag essentially but have

00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:17.920
it look like Battlefield that would be super cool it's a relatively simple

00:03:16.480 --> 00:03:22.280
concept but I think they kind of nailed it let me know what you guys think in the comments down below and thank you to

00:03:20.720 --> 00:03:26.120
Squarespace for sending us here to 20 CES 2016 if you want to set up a website

00:03:24.720 --> 00:03:30.040
a simple website for something like maybe a VR arcade where people wear

00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:33.159
backpacks with laptops on them and shoot each other with fake guns that would be

00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:37.120
great you could do that on Squarespace you could set up a Commerce module so

00:03:34.840 --> 00:03:40.400
people could buy tickets to your thing relatively easily you can use their

00:03:38.959 --> 00:03:44.560
templates so it looks really good even if you're not a very aesthetically tuned

00:03:42.760 --> 00:03:48.799
person and if you have any problems with it there's live chat support and 24/7
