[9] An updated consumer version of the device, called the "Omni One" had been planned for release by the end of 2021,[10] though the first units were not shipped to investors until March, 2023.

[13] The prototype for the Omni used dummy shoes and Kinect software to detect movement instead of the sensor system that became part of the final product.

The campaign was endorsed by Oculus Rift founder Palmer Luckey and overshot its funding goal of $150,000 within three and a half hours of it being posted.

Goetgeluk presented the Virtuix Omni on an episode of the TV show Shark Tank in 2013, after selling approximately 3,000 units in the Kickstarter campaign.

[5][6][7][8] In September 2017, Virtuix announced Omniverse™, their proprietary content delivery and arcade management platform for commercial entertainment venues.

[22] Omniverse allows customers to preview and launch games from a VR interface, and enables operators to manage multiple Omnis from a single device such as a tablet, and keep track of analytics from a web-based Control Center.

- in a statement, the studios' co-founder Mark Paul said: "Omniverse represents an opportunity for us to launch our game on more than a thousand commercial entertainment systems at once, without the hassle of individual licensing agreements.

"[24] In March 2018, an omnidirectional treadmill based on the Omni's design played a prominent part in Steven Spielberg's movie adaption of Ernest Cline's novel, Ready Player One.

More than 350 attendees signed up for a VIP demo before the show had started and press coverage was very positive following the reveal - Forbes named Omni Arena as one of the key stories of IAAPA 2018.

Its key features include an automated staging area for quick player setup and minimal attendant labor, mini-games to facilitate social interactions between players during setup, social sharing stations to share gameplay footage after playing, and a queuing app to eliminate wait lines and boost utilization.

[citation needed] In October 2020, Virtuix publicly revealed the latest design of their omnidirectional treadmill, called "Omni One".

It was scheduled for release in 2H 2021, and marks a return to their original vision of providing a VR treadmill for the home; however, the first units had not began shipping to investors until March, 2023.
