If you're thinking, "Meh, this is nothing more than a creative visualisation of an idea", well, it's real and available right here in Singapore.
That's right, this cutting-edge tool is available in Singapore's first-ever VR Arcade, Ignite VR, at Marina Square.

Not into art? There's an entire library of different games for you to choose from.
Prices start from S$3 a game, and S$30 for a hour of unlimited play. If you book in advance, you can get an hour for S$28 instead.

Enjoy the future!
