I remember when they first put their website up about all this. It's a really interesting system but the necklace is what is the problem. It really only lets 1 person use it so it's more something to show off at a party.

I look forward to seeing how they can make it work with a kinnect.

@Rakeesh The reason it only works for one is because it displays an image simulating the angle for one. Anyone else would see the angle as being off.

Until we get televisions that can beam individual images to individual people, it will always be that way.

Kinect will of course allow them to head-track instead of necklace-track though, so that's a plus.

@TJF Which we will most likely see in the future. Just look at the 3DS.

I'd be more impressed if it didnt require such a goofy "necklace"

Back in my day, we kids had to make our own nature. And it involved walking thirty miles uphill in a blizzard, while barefoot and carrying a hundred pounds of books.

Kids these days...

This technology has legitimate uses. I live in a house where one of the bedrooms doesn't have windows - configuring a system like this to work with a camera outside the house would be incredible for reducing the claustrophobic feeling that can easily creep up in the room.

That's pretty cool. Although if more than one person want to look out the window at once, the whole illusion is shattered. Even Kinect won't solve that

Yeah, this just screams for Kinect.

Though if you want more than one person to be head tracked at once you're gonna need those personal laser retina displays.

If my view was truly that bad, I'd opt for a cellular shade so you can at least get some light.

The guy who built this is a long time friend of mine. I got to see this in person a few months back. The website at http://www.rationalcraft.com/Winscape.html includes a how-to. Even without the motion tracking, it's wicked cool.
