Alongside announcing that Lanny Smoot will be the first Disney employee besides Walt to be inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, Disney also shared one of his newest projects called the HoloTile floor, which just may be a game changer for VR and could bring us ever closer to experiencing the Holodeck from Star Trek.

    That’s fucking rad. The best implementation of an omni-treadmill I’ve seen.

        Going 3D would require variable size tops, variable heights, more tilt, and more granular control. Doesn’t seem like this design would allow any of those. It’s still cool, but is no solid light yet 😉
