[simpits-tech] Expanded visual system test

[Sean Galbraith]

I actually have a pile of bits of mirror here from experiments with
curved screens and HD projectors....  even have some curved truck
mirrors to play with (they let you throw a really wide image... shame
the quality bites....)

yourself some first-surface mirrors to do the job right.
