New HMD by Vuzix: The AV920-C!

Here comes a new Head Mounted Display by Vuzix for all those who:

-love video games,
-love The X-Men,
-feel that standard video games do not offer enough "immersion."

That's what the AV-920-C was made for: video games (360/PS3/Wii). Talking about the Wii, imagine yourself with this and the Wii (tennis racket, baseball bat, gold club...) People would really start worrying about you so please, play this at night!

Anyway back to the device and its specs:

-640x480 resolution,
-ability to split the image into 4 parts for multiplayer games,
-lithium ion battery good for up to 6 hours,
-6.35cm from the eyes,
-view angle of 32 degrees.

Moreover, it weighs only 82 grams.
Price: 59,900 yen.

Will it have a feedback system to track your head\'s direction (and update the game accordingly) or will it only display a fixed perspective?

Review Scoring Details for VR920

Pros:
The headphones are removable, but comfortable and the bridge of the glasses makes for a gentle fit on the nose. The glasses do a good job of staying on, even when tilting the head down. The way the VR920 integrates the camera rotation with head movement is truly terrific.

Cons:
The picture can be a bit grainy, depending on the game and the settings you are used to on your main monitor. The calibration can take a couple of times to get it just right so that the results are not jerky. The video is not as vibrant as a monitor, but still does a nice job of bringing the action up close.

Overall: 8.8
