...that was supposed to be a play on "BRIGHT" but I guess that failed.
Anyways, I'm sitting in future shop the other day, looking for a new headset, and I come across an FPS I hadn't seen before. Turns out it was L4D 2. So I'm playing away and a staff guy comes up. Hands me these sick looking sunglasses, and tells me to put them on. I do, and he hits a button on the side. Then the glasses turn on and I see a loading bar flash before my eyes for like 3 seconds. Low and behold, I'm looking at a HUD. Yeah. A game interfacing with the shades. How freaking cool. Then he hit a button on a small box on top of the monitor and boom I'm looking at L4D2 in 3D through a set of interfacing glasses (looking not unlike Iron Mans interface in his suit) and running around killing zombies with a machine gun and a fire ax.
The future looks fun!
Anyone know more about this technology? I haven't even heard of it before I saw it. |

More information about the 3D vision glasses. Works with a lot of games to make them look 3d. You need a 120Hz monitor though. |
