This is not immersive has you guys think.

This gadget is designed has a tv screen replacement or portable theater, the effect of wearing this is like watch a screen from 2 meters at least.

Due to that his use has VR helmet has some issues, you´ll get some sensation of tunnel vision due the artificial distance to the screen, also the resolution still to low to use in this.

A correct VR gadget design need a curved screen in from of the eyes like a visor of a helmet, fixing due this form the tunnel vision and also letting you in this matter move your eyes to watch icons or watch around.

Yes, that would be awesome. I've seen some videos of flexible OLEDs that could be suitable for this, however OLEDs are still very expensive. But it will come.

It would be interesting to test a TrackIR setup with this...

As you turn your head, the image follows, but you can still look directly in front of you unlike Trackir were you look slightly sideways (which is a problem for eyeglass wearers like me).

But that would increase the tunnel effect maybe...I think it will become really interesting as the angle of coverage increases...until it fills all angles in, say, 2016 ?

This but smaller is a true VR helmet design

Not that "3D" hype crap.
