Hardware & Technical The Avegant glyph discussion thread.

[prowl]

Yes, as a backer, I absolutely agree. Not really a VR product.

HOWEVER...

We manage to gain a sense of immersion with just one monitor, well I do anyway... and I figure that it is still worth trying to get the best out of the Glyph for gamining. I know that's not what it's primarily for, but for me I suspect some advantage to only partial immersion (e.g. I can still see the keyboard, and my brain will probably get more "reality this way up" messages - which I hope means more time in the SRV without needing sick bags...

Anyway... if ANYONE else gets one, let me know and we'll explore!

I've got one on the way...well being shipped in the first kickstarter batch.

Just tried mine. Agree with all comments so far - headtracking will make a huge difference, and the 3D is very nice. Avegant have a new firmware that the forums reckon is due any day (or may be available now if you send them an email - i'll let you know), which will enable the HT natively on the glyph. How do you reckon that will translate into ED setup? I've not played with headtracking before.

cheers,

Anyone got any recommendations for "setup" Elite side? I'm having trouble seeing the fonts...
