'Look ma no screen'!

Mohan,

You may wish to take a look into the future of how computer images will be projected directly onto the eye, without the use of a screen.

It's called Virtual Retinal Display (VRD) and it's being developed by a company called Microvision (MVIS). Boeing and Saab/Ericsson each have a prototype and are looking to use it for pilot heads-up application. Take a look at the MVIS website:

mvis.com.

I've been following this thread for a long time and thought you might be interested in taking a look at this unique technology, if you haven't all ready done so.

Jan

From the last of your response,
I would say that you are a little disapointed.

According to C-Net, the machine is only 10% faster than a 333.

Why pay 50% more for 10%,
Unless you are going to build the space shuttle, you won't be able to tell a differance.

I am disapointed that the BX did not make any real differance in speed.

Jim
