Comment Headplay for all you virtual boyz (Score 1) 384

So, I had this post sent to me from a buddy of mine. And I fine it quite amusing how still misinformed we are about the actual technology that is out there and available to the consumer market in HMD's. I've tried numerous different HMD's over the years like most of you have found them sorely lacking. But a couple of things. 1) Eye fatigue and nausea doesn't happen because of light into the eye's. It happens because everything that we have been given so far have 2 displays. What this does is send 2 images to your eye's. Our Eye's have a massive issue with that. 2)Most HMD's to date have NO or very little focusing capabilities. Ever had someone else's prescription glasses on for a time, Same problem. Now, not to be salesy (I know it's not a word) but I came across a HMD called Headplay that seems to have solved these problems. They use a single display and it has a wide range of focusing capabilities. I've had mine for over a year and have spent hours of game time to my wife's delight (she get's her TV back) gaming,in HD I might add. So the tech is there, you just have to know what your looking for. And by the way I do own a Virtual boy, and a Icuity(now called Vuzix), and I've even have had the opportunity to use a 20K Rockwell Collins. So there is some history.
