I'd heard murmuring about this, but I didn't realize they were this far
along. I'll have to check it out at some point. Thanks for the link

That is pretty cool, but is this for a set of LCD goggles or something? If
you are using a single monitor and you turn your head to look out the side

a set up like Gene's, you don't need it anyway.

But I suppose you can adjust the sensitivity of it all. If you check it out,
please let us know how it works.
