The sleek-looking VRGE VR headset dock Kickstarter looks set to come down to a photo-finish. Heading into its final 24 hours, the crowdfunding campaign is within $2,000 of its $30,000 goal.
We’ve had our eye on the VRGE Kickstarter since it launched back in January. The smartly designed dock has universal support for the Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, PlayStation VR, and their controllers, as well as the option to sit flat on a desk or mount to a wall. Thanks to cable channels underneath, the dock can be set up to charge the controllers too.
While the $59 Early Bird option is long gone, the $79 Standard and $99 Limited Edition offerings are all purported to ship in April, which—if they can pull it off—would be an impressively quick turnaround compared to many Kickstarter projects we’ve seen. Thankfully the creators of the project are well passed the mockup stage, having displayed prototypes of the dock in multiple wood finishes.
With an ‘all-or-nothing’ funding model for the campaign, the project won’t move ahead with any of the pledged funds unless it hits the $30,000 goal. Presently with $27,948 raised, the project is tantalizingly close in its final day.
