viewtopic.php?f=26&t=4072&p=120308#p120308

I don't know guys, 150 FOV, 180 FOV, 100 gram AR, sheesh! You might think we got GANDALF himself on dis project, direct descendent of Ivan Sutherland and Alan Kay, F35 CIO ARCH WIZARD about to start slaying some dragons left and right!

HOLY SHIT! My jaw is hanging agape! Aint no damn FALSE PROPHET HERE!




We got DAVID SMITH in DA HAUS!







Take us out Elvis, David Smith has changed the planet!

All of facebook's 2 billion in plans wiped out by one Gandalf and a hobbit!?




Is my Uncle Butch and Congressman Joe Wilson on the armed services committee gonna support a 110 FOV device for our military and veterans, or this LOCKHEED MARTIN 150 FOV device? Hmmm.... Will my buddy Jim Kennedy, former director of NASA KSC, want to do underwater astronaut training and NAVY SEAL stuff with 110 FOV or 150 and higher LOCKHEED MARTIN tech? Sheesh, decisions decisions....
mtbs3d.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4123 I am looking into that LEEP VR I lack practical 3d knowledge, I have found some good links, but I am not sure if they are the ones you were talking about. Would you mind direct linking me to them? :oops:

Personally I like this whole thread, I do agree that one of the HMD's in question does look rather familiar to the DK1 on the other hand there are two that don't.

This has got me thinking that once CV1 is released and hopefully sets the standard bench mark for which other consumer HMD's follow or are at least judged by. What are the chances of custom HMD's being a substantial business as in will there be demand for them?

I still think it's interesting that there could potentially be a meeting point for the passion bred consumer HMD and a washed down military kind if it ever goes that way!

- We were told the "lack" (not complete absence) of screen door was the use of the lenses and also the significant additional pixels per eye (using a larger screen)

I gather you are "skeptical" - not a bad thing as long as it does not blinker one to other opportunities (too many fanboys that are deluded to except nothing but their own aspiration of how it should be!)

The HMD is a peripheral (plain and simple) it should be open sourced (work with everybody) - if not then you have to invest in software support beyond SDK's and then start to use proprietary tech that also causes for problems down the road (the Philip's analogy again).


Wow, this is big. Really big news.

How can the price be "less than CV1" when a price for CV1 was never announced?

Also, how can there be a Q5? There are only 4 quarters in a year...

Wider FOV for CV1 confirmed on E3 !!!

But will it be some type of custom curved OLED screen with more than 180FOV?

Curved OLED flexible screens are in real products for now (LG G Flex, Samsung Galaxy Round G910S) and samsung just revealed

Who knows but let's face it it's going to be the best HMD on the market for the price!

Lol, don't expect 180 FoV. I would imagine 120 is realistic. A while ago Palmer did indirectly said it would be higher than 110 so we know it's at least higher than that.

Yeah, it is a little silly but I imagine he's talking about the ballpark of $300, based on the dev kits.
