Revolution technology or not... this is cool!

Very cool. Now we just need Wide-Screen computer monitors

That would be really keen if they made it VR.

Like, obviously they give you a choice, but I mean you can put some sort of mask on or "goggles" or something, and its like a TV screen right smashed up against your face!

Now you dont have to sit right up to the TV to get the same mind numbing effect!

They alreay have 'googles' or glasses that you wear that display the computer montor in them.
they've had thoes you can buy for years now.

That combined with this would give you one of the best sensations of VR that you can currently find.

but it wouldnt be that great on a normal tv or monitor, because the screen wouldnt be moving with you. you need the screen glasses

I know, but I mean high tech ones, that take advantage of 3D technology and full VR and stuff.

Not just, like a TV, but in your face, I meant more of a 3D environment.

but thats exactly what it would be tho. i mean, both of these together, which obviously will get combined into one sooner or later, would make VR, a 3d world you see, and you see what your looking at when you move your head around.

all that would be left is sensors for the rest of your body so it would know when you move your arms and legs

That's my computer case that plug it into.

yeah...this would be amazing if it was built into a pair of glasses/goggles that that had a 3D picture in them rather than seeing it on a flat screen.

also, for VR to really work without hurting yourself, you would need to have a room specially equiped...so that you dont trip over something or whatnot.

one of those holographic rooms would be sweet...the kind on Star Trek (don't ask...i was bored)....and yes, i think star trek sucks!
