ProTubeVR's activity consists of developing, producing and commercializing peripherals for virtual reality (VR). Our driving force is improving the immersion players feel with our modular systems. With this force feedback integration project, we definitely want to bring gamers into a new level of immersion.

There are a number of good VR headsets on the market out there, but each time we needed to grab a rifle in any VR FPS, we realized we missing something to go deeper, something that delivers a real feeling of being inside the game.

That’s how everything began and started growing in our minds. From this moment we started thinking, developing, designing and working on a new project day and night, at firdt in our bedrooms to imagine the beginnings of the actual ProTubeVR.

This is a classic ProTubeVR rifle,

After creating the MagTubeVR upgrade, based on a magnetic system making transition moves (reloading, side-arm, grenades etc.) way more natural, we are working on a new way to experience FPS in VR.. The ForceTubeVR.

This a ProTubeVR upgraded to MagTubeVR.

ForceTubeVR features impact simulation/kick and rumble effects. It uses a proper wireless communication gateway which allows signal transmissions from computer or game console.

This is a ProTubeVR upgraded with the subject of this crowdfunding, the ForceTubeVR haptic module replacing the butt of the rifle, simulating rumble and kick impact on your shoulder.

ForceTubeVR haptic module.

ProTubeVR sponsored the VR League Onward competition during Oculus Connect 5 @ San Jose, California by providing gunstocks to the players. Our ForceTubeVR was introduced during this huge event (Click on the picture to see the official presentation)

ForceTubeVR is already compatible with each of the following HMDs:

HTC Vive

Oculus Rift and the future Oculus Quest

Acer/Lenovo

Samsung Odyssey

Pimax

ForceTubeVR is likely to get future console HMD compatibility, however that will depend the crowdfunding results.

We are here raising money on Kickstarter to step up on the industrial side and provide the best VR experience ever made.



Kickstarter has proven to be an extraordinary platform for accelerating this kind of project. Making your contribution is the best way to be part of developing the future of gaming.

Today, most peripherals required for unbelievable immersion are very expensive and reserved for the military community or huge arcade installations. Currently they do not have equal quality products as we are ready to propose.

This technology is dedicated to professional AND private uses. We want to maximize immersion, comfort, uninhibited fun, at an accessible price.

ProTubeVR is not alone in this venture, ForceTubeVR will be natively supported on any platform by the most popular virtual reality licences as you can see below.

We have different reward stages :

STAGE 1 - GOODIES

SUPPORTER LVL.1 from 5€ : Virtual Kiss

: Virtual Kiss SUPPORTER LVL.2 from 30€ : t-shirt, magnets and stickers

: t-shirt, magnets and stickers SUPPORTER LVL.3: Goodies pack with stickers, magnets, mouse pad, lens cleaner, straps

SUPPORTER LVL.2 t-shirt

After that we have 2 different stages : the ForceTubeVR devkits and the ForceTubeVR final products with 3 different compositions :

If you want only the ForceTubeVR haptic module (for those who already have their ProTubeVR setup)

If you want a ProTubeVR + the ForceTubeVR haptic module

If you want the upgraded ProTubeVR (MagTubeVR) + the ForceTubeVR haptic module + jumbo pack

And a last pledge which includes 5 ForceTubeVR haptic module + 5 MagTubeVR rifles (chrome version) for example for esport teams or arcade places.

Important Note : European Backers may be asked to pay VAT at the end of the campaign

Both the ForceTubeVR patent and our core features are already established and completed. The Kickstarter objective is only here to develop this innovation on the industrial side and to integrate even more features.

In the case we reach and exceed our goal, this is what we plan to do :

Because..

We are known and respected by important video games associations (ESL, VR League, Oculus)

and by important video games associations (ESL, VR League, Oculus) We have sold 5000+ rifles

rifles We have been working with major FPS developers since 2016

since 2016 As a company, we are known for providing quality products and great customer service.

We give our very best to satisfy every single customer, it will be the same for every backer.

ProTubeVR is not here to make a marketing promotion campaign, we are here to reach our goal and determined to open a new era of vr gaming .

We are composed of 7 VR enthusiast members. Our passion began with the Oculus DK2 release and the day we discovered the VR FPS. We were like real kids, especially for "competitive" or "realistic" ones as Onward or H3VR.

Here we are in 2019. Rewind to 2016 and Romain, the creator (aka Bourin01) started prototyping the first ProTubeVR. He convinced us that was possible to increase the level of immersion level of this new gaming experience, with a new solution and be pioneers on the hardware VR peripherals market.
