Yes that is some thought. I definatly think the brain is capable of this, but like you said it would take time to learn to make sense of it all. This is afterall how a fly's eye works. Can you imagine a movie or video game using multiple visual inputs to your brain, It would be like being inside the movie/game but having complete awearness, sensing everything around you at the same time, never missing something happening behind your back. That would be awesome in a flight sim huh? And you could thow that TrackIR in the bin lol.
