CHAPTER 1
Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of the VFX1 HEADGEAR™ Virtual Reality
System -- the most technically advanced, fully integrated, and affordable VR
headset available for Personal Computers and Workstations that use a standard
VGA video adapter. The system comes complete with 3D stereo color imaging,
proprietary three axis VOS™ head tracking, 3D sound capability, microphone,
ACCESS.bus™ connectivity, and comfortable ergonomics all in a sleek, "cool"
design. The CyberPuck™, included with the VFX1 HEADGEAR system, is a
"floating" VR handheld input device incorporating two axis tracking and three
programmable buttons. The VFX1 HEADGEAR system takes you beyond the
limitations of conventional fixed video display and sound systems to total
immersion in a 3D electronic space that dynamically responds to your movements
as you look around and explore these new virtual worlds.
System Features
The major components and key features of the VFX1 HEADGEAR system are
illustrated in figure 1-1 and are further described below:
VFX1 HEADGEAR™ Smart Visor™ - The Smart Visor™ allows the
VR user to interactively use the PC or workstation without removing the headset.
With the Smart Visor™ you flip up the visor when not immersed. When ready for
VR action, simply pull down the visor and instantly enter the virtual world.
3D Stereoscopic Imaging - The VFX1 HEADGEAR™ provides leading edge
technology using a pair of color LCDs each with high contrast 789 x 230 pixel
images. Each eye sees different images in stereo mode, but both eyes work as a
team to provide depth. This provides true realistic stereo imaging putting you right
where the action is.
Each eyepiece can be independently focused and is equipped with a rubber eye cup
that may be used as is, folded back, or removed completely depending upon the
user's preference. The interpupillary distance (IPD) is fully adjustable by moving
the eyepieces left or right.
