Revi Sight Fix?

[Madfish]

Carmack supposedly canceled "his" project after seeing the Occulus, the Kickstarter project you're talking about. His was way better though in terms of framerate and fluidity - it didn't have the FOV yet though.

But I fear that Occulus is a fake company anyways. All the "big" US gaming icones are siding with it although there are many other HMD's on the market already - not from the USA though.
How else would they be able to produce an HMD without violating literally EVERY patent there is though? HMD's are out there since decades and it would have been easy to support carl zeiss, sony or all the other makers in their development of HMD's.

So I am deeply worried that the Occulus will turn out like the next Natural Point - a monopoly on hard and software, heck, even the API's. That will again limit everyone's options and any real progress. TrackIR is so old and clunky I can't even imagine what will happen if the same goes on in the Head Mounted Display area which is 100 times more important than this lame LED tracking stuff.

Aside from that it's still not fully 3D as there is no depth of field of any sort of eye focus. That's why I'm still saying it will take at least 5-8 years for truly immersive 3D technology to be on the market.
