FAQs
Here you will find all the product support you will need to get the most out of your Roto experience. Please choose from the options below to start learning more about the Roto VR Explorer and all of its components.
How fast does Roto VR Explorer turn?
Top speed is 21 RPM.
Look & turn is designed to be a smooth experience, so it purposely doesn’t jolt you from side to side.
Racing games will be able to jolt you from side to side – Roto updates every 200ms, so it can get pretty intense.
How much weight can Roto VR Explorer support?
We guarantee up to 130kg (286lb).
How much cleared space do I need when playing on Roto?
The Roto VR Explorer base is 76cm (30 inches) in diameter, which is the same as a regular swivel chair, but users swing their arms so we recommend an additional 1m space around the chair for safety.
What games does Roto VR Explorer support?
Roto supports and enhances over 400+ games and apps available from the Meta Quest store
We are working on Racing and flying game compatibility with our partner SIM TOOLS. Soon Roto VR Explorer and game chairs will transform into the complete Motion Simulator.
Which VR headsets does Roto VR Explorer support?
We have partnered with Meta to deliver the optimum experience with the Meta Quest line of products.
Additionally, Roto VR Explorer supports all other all-in-one headsets such as Vive XR Elite, Pico Neo 3 and soon Apple Vision pro.
PCVR support is coming soon with the upcoming launch of our PC Advanced Cable Magazine, which allows for USB connectivity through the chair.
Unfortunately, some headsets are difficult or impossible to support, such as PSVR 1&2, Varjo, Pimax (PC version), Oculus-S, Reverb G2.
Lastly, some legacy headsets are possible to support, but are not a priority currently, which include HTC Vive and Valve Index.
What are Cable Magazines?
The Cable Magazine is an integral part of Roto that can allow connectivity through the chair without cables getting tangled. Our Cable Magazines are made of high precision gold-plated electromechanical sliprings.
Roto comes with a Basic Cable Magazine as standard, which provides USB-C headset charging (15W) plus power for the haptic feedback.
If you wish to connect to PC, you need to upgrade to the PC Advanced Cable Magazine (coming soon).
Does Roto VR Explorer need power?
Yes, we supply a switch mode power supply: input 110V-240V, output 19V 9Amps, 220W.
Can I attach any seat to the Roto VR Explorer base?
Sorry, no. There are various safety issues to consider including recline angles - we don’t want people to topple over at speed! Additionally, features such as haptics, plus the various accessories we sell will only work with our seats.
