Hello,

I just tried the VFX-1, and would like to propose that
it be incorporated into the VRML concept. This is a very
comfortable HMD, and has many fsatures. It retails through
distributors for about $995.00 (USD).

Support for this HMD would be revolutionary.

Specs:

-45 degree field of view
-.7" dual active-matrix color LCDs (789x230)
-hsad tracking: 360 yaw, +-70 pitch, +-70 roll
-comes with VIP video card, standard VGA connection
card (16 bit ISA)
-stereo hsadphones, 20Hz-20kHz
-cyberpuck controller (pretty cool, works very smoothly)
-built-in microphone: for voice recognition or comm
-system requirements: 386, 486, or Pentium
-one year warranty

The tracking is very fast, smooth, and delay almost
unnoticable; very immersive.

These are much better than the i-Glasses, from the
way they look and feel. Very high quality, so if any
innovative programmers out there can generate a patch,
that would really be cool.
