ANTVR, the “all-in-one universal virtual reality kit” from Beijing, reached its Kickstarter goal on June 23 and went on to raise over US$260,000. Tech in Asia spoke to company CTO Jason Zhang on the sidelines of this week’s TechCrunch Beijing conference, who said the device will go on sale in the US in September. A China release is in the works for a later, unspecified date.
