Realiteer
A VR Developer That Enables You to Walk in VR
As one of the Silicon Valley start-ups founded in May 2015, Realiteer continuously builds apps in cognitive training, visualization, and education.
It was founded by Fangwei, a visual special effects lead at Dreamwork Animation, and Shuo, a 10-years-experienced worker in biotech hedge and world-class companies.
Realiteer Corp has released four virtual reality applications. They open new possibilities in mobile VR with two of their apps, Wizard Academy VR and Battle Z VR. These two apps enable you to walk around virtual world, something that has never happened before in mobile VR. What’s cool about it is that not only you walk, but you have to finish a mission (while walking in a virtual world). For example, you have to get out of the maze on Wizard Academy VR, meanwhile, you have to survive from all the zombies on Battle Z VR. In real life, you just need to walk in place to make it work in the virtual world. You can also run and jump. In place. So, yeah, it’s safe to play.
And, yeah, it’s new in mobile VR.
