Indeed, it’s not even looking to be the only one we’ll see on store shelves this year, but it is the front runner; the golden ticket. With that comes an expectation of what VR will become for many sectors which is dictated by the achievements made at Oculus VR.

Stompz is one product that intends to do just that.
