VR Summit is excited to welcome WYVRN as a technology sponsor for the VR Summit Hackathon 2025. This collaboration puts professional-grade haptics into students’ hands, enabling teams to explore the limits of tactile feedback and build truly immersive VR experiences.

About WYVRN & Freyja HD

WYVRN develops advanced haptic hardware and tooling for immersive content. Its Freyja HD Haptic Cushions deliver multi-point feedback that enhances embodiment and presence in VR, while the WYVRN Haptic Composer streamlines authoring of rich haptic effects via reusable .hap files.

As part of the sponsorship, WYVRN will provide hardware and creative assets to accelerate prototyping during the hackathon.

What Participants Get

• Freyja HD Haptic Cushions: 4 units available on site for hands-on prototyping.
• WYVRN Haptic Composer & .hap library: Design and implement sophisticated haptic effects quickly.
• Acceleration resources: Sample content and example projects to move from idea to working demos faster.

With advanced haptic design tools and multi-point feedback hardware, teams can craft VR experiences that redefine how virtual spaces feel—from nuanced textures to dynamic forces and spatial cues.
