Hello!

I`m curios about this "gadget", http://www.3dvisor.com/.

It cost 549$, but its not that expencive considering the cost of a pair of 3d-shutterglasses, trackIR and a monitor with good enough refreshrate for shutterglasses.

As it still is expencive I would not dare (with my economy..) to buy just for a try.
Does anyone have any experience or links to a review with this product (or similar product).

Thankful for replies!

I dragged this from the Community section of that site;-

To be honest, really small hires LCDs with fast refresh rates aren't with us yet. Best I've seen is 800 X 600, I reckon 1280 X 1024 or (best) 1600 X 1080 widescreen is what will make it happen.

Even then, you need plenty graphics poke - even with 800 X 600 my 68U will struggle to do 2 screens at average refresh rates on 800 X 600.

Nice to see they work with standard nVidia drivers though. There's hope yet!

I was using one of these today. This toy is crazy! Definately a nice experience. Unlike other 3d goggles that I have ever used that made the experience challenging on depth perception.

I like this eMagin company, and I like how they are approaching these technologies. I cant wait until the next gen products. Im going to buy one of these for my own birthday gift.
