    Disney invented the Holotile, the new floor that keeps you in the same place while allowing you to walk in any direction.

    It's not on sale yet, since it was announced. I imagine they still have problems to fix so people don't fall, but it must be promising.

    This is a proof of concept, not a product, though there have been other forms of omni direction products.

    I doubt Disney ever share that device, ever. I would love to construct one.
