For those of you who want to push the limits of virtual reality with a few toys, and with the cash spare, feel free to check out the emagin z800 goggles, similar to the ones used on the Loadmaster training system provided by BIA and LaserShot. VRealities.com has these on sale for $200 USD off the normal price, at $1299 USD. Check them out here.
The z800 goggles are probably the cheapest you can find on the market right now with built-in head tracking via gyroscope. You can get other goggles much cheaper than these, however they aren't head tracking capable, meaning a separate solution is needed, such as a 3DOF gyroscopic tracking sensor or Track IR, both available from VRealities.com. NB: This is not a paid advertisement, simply mentioning these goggles because they're awesome, if I had the cash spare, I would buy them myself, however I just spent around $2500 on a new PC.
New PC Spec:
1 Antec Three Hundred Case
1 Intel Core i7 920
1 Western Digital Green 1TB WD10EADS
1 ASUS P6T Motherboard
1 Corsair TX-850 850W Power Supply
1 OCZ Solid State Drive 3.5" Adaptor Bracket
1 Corsair HX3X12G1600C9 12GB (6x2GB) DDR3
1 EVGA GeForce GTX 285 2GB
1 G.Skill Falcon 64GB SSD
Feel the Power?
Jamie.
