Arcadeo, a French startup, showcased its first product at CES 2020. It's a gaming chair, but a rather special one.
That's because it sports a 16 cores processor and 10 haptic actuators to provide a 'third sensorial experience', letting you feel every bit of feedback from your games.
You may also customize the intensity of each vibration point, as well as tweaking the brightness of the integrated LED system, via an app. Additionally, the Arcadeo gaming chair is said not only to be compatible with all gaming platforms, but even with non-gaming content such as music and videos like movies or TV series.
For its innovations, the Arcadeo gaming chair won CES 2020 prizes in the Gaming and Computer Peripherals categories. The product should be released later this year and is expected to be priced somewhere around $800.
