Anyone heard of Oriscape? Apparently it's a company based in China that's involved in the VR market. Currently, they have many different models of HMDs, one of them being the Cyberman 2326M: http://www.oriscape.com.cn/2326m-e.htm Here are some specs supplied from TekGear.com: http://www.tekgear.com/product.cfm?sku=0170 Currently, the HMDs are being sold for a relatively low price of $300 by Intellicam USA on eBay, based in Cincinnati, Ohio: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1946294186 Anyone know about this company, and the quality of their HMDs? I'm intrigued by what they have to offer. Thanks in advance! |

I'd be interested in finding out more about these HMDs too. Funny how some of the models are marked VV or Virtual Vision, which was a name you used to hear about in HMDs in the '90s, but I haven't heard anything from in a long time. I can't tell if the ones on eBay sold (or sold out, the quantity was 50), or not. Was anybody watching it more closely? Anyone buy one? The eBay listing mentioned a resolution of 220K pixels (but no additional tech. details). Compared to the old 180K HMDs from the mid-1990s that you see selling used on eBay, sometimes for as much as a few hundred USD, maybe $300 isn't so bad for that Chinese one, new? (Undoubtedly no head tracking and no stereo, although at $300, I wonder if it could be hacked?) That TekGear HMD is listed as quarter VGA (UGH!) 320 x 240 or 76,8000 dots. Less than half the rez of those mid-'90s HMDs... and at $500, I'd say nowaymanforgetit! |
