At SXSW this year, people will be able to ride the Honda UNI-ONE while wearing a virtual reality headset and play a choose-your-own VR adventure.

At the upcoming SXSW Conference… Honda will give attendees a chance to try out a new mobility device… specifically designed for mixed reality entertainment experiences.

Users can steer… without the use of their hands — they simply have to lean into one direction to move forwards, backwards, sideways or diagonally.

      Don’t move fast enough to dodge the dragon? Get hit by a bus. Adds realism.

        I was literally on board a bus that damn near got in a head on with a wrong way driver when I received this.

            It happened again this morning. You should’ve seen the look on the tourists faces when I laughed and said it happens a lot.
