Hi guys
i've learned about this amazing project today:
It's a fully 3D head mounted display, where you don't see the screen anymore, just feel as you actualy ARE IN the game!
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...-into-the-game
It'll make VR glasses finally affordable to average gamers. They want to make it work just by plugging it in via DVI/HDMI and USB. The game has to support it of course, but CloD for example already supports 6DOF. Imagine they add an 3D feature and the propper resoultion to it - finaly we actually "are in the cockpit"!
Specs:
Head tracking: 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) ultra low latency
Field of view: 110 degrees diagonal / 90 degrees horizontal
Resolution: 1280x800 (640x800 per eye)
Inputs: DVI/HDMI and USB
Platforms: PC and mobile
Weight: ~0.22 kilograms
Also they work with many of the big shots of the industrie (i.e. John Carmack creator of Doom, Jeff Bleszinski from Epic..)
And they've already reached their goal moneywise through kickstarter (even more than doubble the money they wanted). It looks like this one is going to be a success in every way!
What do you guys think? For me, this IS THE FUTURE OF GAMING, especially the future of Flightsimming. No mor 6 screens. I always wanted such glasses and now there are finally about to come
