Towards a Perfect Virtual Reality Experience
News

  • We sincerely apologize to announce that our Kickstarter project, scheduled to be launched on November 6th, has been postponed to December 6th. Due to a delay in the development of the tracking system, we have not been able to prepare enough demonstration videos and information to gain the trust of our potential supporters at this stage. After careful consideration, we came to the conclusion that it would not be appropriate to start our Kickstarter project as of now, with insufficient preparation.
    Our sincere apologies again to potential supporters who have been looking forward to the beginning of our crowdfunding, with high hopes for the HalfDive project.
    We would greatly appreciate it if you could wait a little more for our journey to begin!

  • 2021/06/01 The project "Development of a VR system optimized for use while sleeping" proposed by Yamato Sakoda (CEO) and Kei Asano (Co-Founder) has been accepted by 2021 Mitou Program. Mitou Program is a project for finding and developing undiscovered IT talents led by IPA in Japan.
    • Our Mission
    Diver-X’s mission is to maximize human output/experience through enabling human activity in its lowest energetic state. We aim to implement in our product various functions and interface technologies that have been limited as a trade-off for the recent trend towards miniaturization and weight reduction. We are running counter. Maximizing the benefits obtained from the best-fit between the stationary and large-sized structure of our product and human sleeping position, we seek to provide our customers a revolutionary Virtual Reality experience.
