this really cool

Problem is the resolution is still something like 680x800.

It is only in the development stage so the resolution will probably improve. thanks to smartphone there is a big demand to improve quality in small screens.
I think I could live with a slight reduction of resolution to get the feeling of actually being in the cockpit.

the only way that's going to happen is if you can see things in your actual environment as well as the projected environment...that is the major drawback to those vr goggles for simulators, can't see anything except what is projected.

Sony had some that were HD.

yeah, i didn't think this was new technology.
vr goggles have been around for years, no?

Seeing as the screens are only about an inch away from your eyes, that resolution is pretty good. There is one other player that plays with a headset and has done so for a while. I don't remember his name, but if you run a search for VR headsets Im sure you'll find it.

Dang! And here I just spent hundreds of dollars on three 24-inch monitors for my new AH system! :bhead
Seriously, the first military V/R system I ever tried was back in 1995. Can't believe it's not been perfected and widely and cheaply available nearly two decades later. This is the holy grail of simulation, and still it's "in development".
It's like what's happened with the rebuilding on the World Trade Center site. The Empire State building was built a hundred years ago, and took a bit over 400 days to complete (with beginning of the 20th century building techniques and technology). The WTC towers fell in Sept of 2001, and they're still not done building the single tower of the OWTC, eleven years later. Another example: The P-51 went from a sketch on the back of a napkin to a flying prototype in six months. How long did it take to start flight testing on the F-22? Reminds me of an old saying: "Better is the enemy of good enough."
