Kat VR Introduces Kat Walk Mini VR Treadmill (Updated)
When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works.
Updated, 04/11/2018, 10:45 am PT:
Kat VR announced that pre-orders for the Kat Walk Mini would be open this week. We’re not sure what happened to the plans for the Kickstarter campaign, but you can order directly from Kat VR starting April 13.
Kat VR revealed that the Kat Walk Mini would retail for $2,999 and ship in July. However, the company is running a short-term promotion that could save you a lot of money. Early bird orders placed between April 13 and April 20 will receive a 50% price reduction to $1,499. For the following two weeks, the price will go up by $200 per week. On May 8, Kat VR plans to raise the price to $2,499, and any order placed on or after May 19 would be subject to the full retail price. To qualify for the discounts, the payment must be processed within the discount window.
Kat VR isn’t yet accepting orders through its website, but you can contact the company’s sales department to put your order in.
Original story, 03/22/2018, 5:35pm PT:
Kat VR today revealed the Kat Walk Mini, a scaled-down, consumer-friendly version of its Kat Walk commercial VR Treadmill.
Kat VR originally launched the Kat Walk VR Treadmill on Kickstarter in 2015, but it didn’t get a lot of traction. The campaign was successful, and the company secured $49,278 over its $100,000 ask. However, the company convinced only 231 people to back it.
The lack of interest was somewhat surprising, especially after Virtuix sold so many units during its crowdfunding pursuit. However, the original Kat Walk treadmill is a large, heavy-duty setup with an overhead beam and a harness to secure you. The Virtuix Omni is cumbersome. The Kat Walk is downright ungainly.
The new Kat Walk Mini brings the idea of a VR treadmill down to a much more manageable package. Kat VR didn’t reveal much about the Kat Walk Mini, but from the promo video that it released today, we can tell that it’s a much more compact product. What’s more, Kat VR said the treadmill in the video is a prototype and that the final product would be smaller than the one in the video.
The Kat Walk Mini featured a harness system that holds you in and allows you to walk, run, jump, and crouch in place. Unlike the Virtual Omni, which has a fixed frame and a rotatable harness system, Kat VR’s solution features a rotating frame. The setup also appears to have a back rest, so that you can lean against walls in tactical shooters.
Kat VR didn’t reveal many details about the Kat Walk Mini, but the promo video features a Pimax 8K headset and Doom VFR and Fallout 4 VR. It should, therefore, be compatible with and Steam VR headsets, such as the HTC Vive, Vive Pro, or Oculus Rift. Kat VR also demonstrated compatibility with the PlayStation VR playing Skyrim VR. If we had to guess, we’d say the company cut a deal with Bethesda to put Kat Walk support into its VR games. The promo video also depicts Starbreeze’s Payday 2 VR.
Kat VR didn’t say when the Kat Walk Mini would be available, but we should know more soon. The company is preparing a Kickstarter campaign to drum up support and interest for the product.

Temperament and character
Dobermans are very temperamental, courageous and confident service dogs. They are excellent watchmen and good defenders; in the event of a dangerous situation, the offender may face serious physical harm. With their nobility and devotion, the dogs of this breed are distinguished by waywardness and stubbornness, so they need to be trained from a very young age, do it consistently and competently. Dobermans get along well with children, protect them from danger, love to play with them.
History
The first pure specimen of the breed was presented at an exhibition in 1863 — as the «Thuringian Pinscher» (Thuringia, Germany is considered to be the place of origin). In 1894, this name was changed to «Doberman Pinscher». Dobermans conquered dog lovers with their noble appearance, excellent watchdog qualities. It is assumed that large hunting dogs, shepherd dogs, greyhounds, and rottweilers were crossed to obtain the breed. Otto Heller is called the father of the breed, although the first representatives of the breed were bred by Friedrich Louis Dobermann.
Habits and habits
Dobermans are dogs that miraculously combine aggressiveness and good nature. Dogs of this breed easily and quickly adapt to the family in which they live. That is, they can be good companions for a single person, and for an owner with a large family and small children. Dobermans are confident and calm, but when danger approaches, they immediately concentrate on fighting back.
Living conditions
Keeping a Doberman requires an equipped closed enclosure or other draft-free space. It will be problematic to keep a large dog in a small apartment, especially if the owner is often and for a long time away from home. Daily walks and active games are a prerequisite for the well-being of the pet, its physical and psychological development. When walking a dog in the cold season, it is necessary to ensure that the dog does not lie down on a concrete surface or snow; in rainy weather, you should try to return home as soon as possible so that the dog does not get wet and does not freeze.
Doberman nutrition
Dobermans need a balanced diet, including a large amount of boiled or fresh and scalded meat, cereals, vegetables, vitamins. An improperly selected diet can lead to a deterioration in the appearance and well-being of the animal, the appearance of health problems. Therefore, it is better to choose ready-made dry food for large dogs. If the dog does not move much (due to the busyness of the owner or because of his advanced age), you need to choose food with a minimum amount of fat and heavy carbohydrates.
Puppy diet
Puppy diet should not be changed abruptly. If the breeder fed the pet with natural products, it is worth continuing to give him such food, gradually introducing other components or changing it to ready-made canned food or dry food. The diet of a small Doberman should include proteins (40-50%), fats, carbohydrates, vitamin complexes. When feeding canned food or dry food, it is necessary to give the dog vitamins 1-2 times a week.
Care and maintenance in an apartment
Care and maintenance of a Doberman in an apartment or a private house includes hair care. Smooth-haired dogs do not need daily combing, it is enough to comb them with a massage brush at least once a week. The nails are trimmed as they grow (if the dog does not wear them down). It is also important to take care of your teeth. You should regularly inspect them so that dark plaque and tartar do not appear. To prevent such problems, it is worth giving your pet special treats made from natural products, sugar bones.
Means from internal and external parasites for prevention are given to the pet regularly (once every 3-4 months). When walking in the park or hiking in the forest, the animal can wear a special blanket to protect against ticks.
Hygiene
The smooth, dense coat is practically not soiled, so you should not bathe your pet often. It is enough to wash it 1-2 times a year with a special shampoo (you can use a shampoo with the effect of killing fleas and other ectoparasites). If the dog gets very dirty on a walk, his paws and stomach can be wiped with a damp cloth. An important hygienic procedure is cleaning the ears, which must be wiped at least once every 2 weeks with a cotton pad moistened with warm water. If there is an unusual plaque in the ear, you should consult a doctor. Eyes are wiped with a damp cotton swab as they get dirty. You can also ask your veterinarian how to care for a Doberman.
Education and training of Dobermans
It is worth starting to educate a dog and instill good habits in it from a very young age. It is important to instill the habit of eating at the same time, also walking by the hour, knowing your place, the rules of behavior in the house and with children. Dobermans lend themselves well to training, thanks to their intelligence and good intuition. Some willfulness may manifest itself in ignoring commands. It is necessary to firmly, but without threats and screams, repeat the command until the pet fulfills it. If you need to train a dog in complex service or security skills, it is better to contact a training specialist.
