Seems to work well.

A subject of "Ambilight for the Rift" would be more meaningful for this thread :twisted:

The new samsung flexible amoled display would sort out the horizontal peripheral vision problem. Consumer version hopefully.

That is pretty cool.

Though the topic title is not very descriptive. I am going to change it to something more fitting. Don't worry, I personally read every thread on this forum, and if there is something cool I will share it with the team.

Thanks.

I've had my Rift for a couple weeks and the black border bothered me at first. There is a reason why scuba masks aren't black around the edges.

It doesn't bother me anymore, but I think this is a great idea that will get implemented in a consumer HMDs at some point.
