A mutual friend got a development kit from kickstarter.
Suprisingly good 3d and head tracking. We did the rollercoaster and some one where you walked around tuscany.

We know someone who has one.
Unfortunately the Resolution on it is pretty poor. It's kind like looking at a smart phone screen through a pair of binoculars.

Damn, what rez does it spit out? I don't think it would be comercially viable to make it Retina, but it would seriously help that issue.

I understand it's the same screen as the Nexus 4.
But alot of that is wasted as it essentially renders two orbs on the same screen. The lenses then zoom in on the orb and give the illusion of a 120 degrees of vision per eye.

Cool, I can't even picture in my head how they'd work out, will have to wait and see.
I'd love to hear that they're working on it for the next-gen.

Once it goes wireless, imagine combining it with this: mashable.com/2013/05/12/mad-genius/

I've seen them use it on a omnidirectional treadmill too, that sounds cool.

I dunno,
I struggle getting a PS Move to work well in my living room. I think I'd struggle to fit all that gear in anywhere.

The nexus 4 panel shows exactly what's on the monitor there, and there are two lenses pointing to it and slightly distorting it.
