  1. If a backer already paid for Hand Tracking during the KS, could the funds be used on the Eye Tracking module instead?
    Answer: No. The Hand Tracking modules are already in the production pipeline and production materials and resources were procured based on the number of orders.

  2. Are the Backer Plans A-D still available, or do we only offer the new $349 opt-out plan?
    Answer: The A-D plans including the new out-out plan will be limited to a TOTAL of 500 backers. So, all plans are still available but only for a limited time. The new $349 opt-out plan will be online soon.

  3. Can backers, who upgraded using Backer Plan A-D and opted out of stretch goals, still purchase the Stretch Goal Box separately?
    Answer: Yes. Once we have delivered the stretch goal “Backer Box” to those who did not opt-out we will make this item available to backers for a very special price in the Pimax Store.

  4. When does the refund process begin for backers who paid for a 10m extension cable or Pimax controllers?
    Answer: The refund process will begin in August. If you are a backer waiting for this refund, please create a support ticket and we will follow up.

  5. Does the Backer 8KX include 2 foams?
    Answer : Yes, 2 foams will be included with all upcoming 8KX shipments. The missing foam from the first 8KX batch shipments will be delivered to you along with the Stretch Goal Box.

  6. Prescription Lens for Eye Tracking Module ?
    Answer : We are currently testing various lenses with the prescription lens adapter to ensure its working properly with the Eye tracking module. We will have further information on the progress of this in a later update.
