Have a look at this:

Can you imagine playing Mechwarrior with that? No need for multiple screens or anything like that, just put on the visor and it will follow your headmovement with the track IR and show it in the visor.

I know the idea is not new, but I havent seen it being implemented like this yet. The demonstration focuses on architectural showcases, but if I can hook up one of these babies to my computer I'm definitely gonna get one.

720p resolution is touch disappointing, but nice packaging. There is at least one 'consumer grade' 1080p resolution HMD, but I don't think it includes head tracking. IIRC, somebody combined a TrackIR (mounted the reflectors on the HMD) with one to good effect.

Good thread to check out: http://simhq.com/for...Ds_of_2011.html
