check katwalk website.
Preorder this week for half the price.
this version seems to be a huge roller bearing with the platform in the middle.
probably very noisy system but also more compact than the bulky original.
website list also a Katwalk Junior, but no info.

it is preorder, so you buy at that price (before 20 April).
So no risk here. I bet that all people deceived (to stay polite) by Virtuix Omni, will be very happy to give their money to Katwalk. For VR arcade they already got the KatWalk, so definitely this one is not for targeted for arcade but more for home enthusiast..
for sure , i will not purchase at 2000 or 3000, but 1500 is ok
I doubt the device is headset dependant (while they ask you to indicate which one you plan to use, but probably just for statistics).
Also by making three level of price for preorder they are testing waters for good pricing.
@nosys70 - your dead wrong - we were with the KAT team in China last week and they are talking about the mini for VR arcade deployment. Where did you get your information from?

Katwalk mini is designed to get less height and fit in appartment. they also said the video does not show the final product that will be probably smaller.
For sure you can buy and bunch of katwalk mini and open an arcade, there is no limitation except there is no software announced for arcade and usually arcade distribution is not using open preorder at discounted prices.
