Impression Pi or Impression π is a mobile Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality Head-mounted Display founded by Yue Fei (CTO), AnLi He (CEO) and Chris Shi (COO). Similar to Samsung Gear VR, Impression Pi is wireless and requires the insertion of a smartphone for its display and processor. The HMD has built-in positional tracking in addition to rotational tracking. The device also has two front facing cameras that enables it to not only create AR overlays but also track the motion of your hands and fingers.
A Kickstarter campaign for Impression Pi began in March 2015. Users who have pledged $59, $199, $249, $359 will receive a Starter Package, Core Package, Empower Package or Master Package respectively.
