There will be lovers and there will be haters for sure. I want to Max my Max to the Max.

Well I've got the first in car VR system for my Max 2K1 AE done! It is the latest(the absolute latest) in Headmounted Personal Displays.

It has it's own displays which simulate a 45" screen....forget about those dinky 5"-7" ones. I have it interfaced to a PS2 with DVD remote as well. I'm a partner in the company that distributes them in North America. It is much better than the Sony Glasstron and has very clear crisp picture with super hi res 1.44million pixels. I'm working on interfacing 2-3 of them off one PS2 right now. Great for trips especially if you want personal video ie. **** for adults ... barney for the kids. The whole reason I bought the Max was to showcase Personal Displays etc.. I'm entering my car into shows so that is why I'm modding it out! Y-Pipe and Eibachs go on shortly! Also building a true in car Virtual Reality station ...immersive (with the headgear), full motion tracking, 3D control, Voice Recognition, and working on tactile force feedback for the seats. Sounds crazy?? It is!


<b>In car PS2/computer owners</b> where have you been installing your systems? Any tips or tricks? My system is removable in less than a minute and the glasses fold up (like big sunglasses). For the in car computer system we are working on I need true 3D power that a laptop can't do so I'm kinda stuck with a larger case. Feedback would be cool!

PS And "no" the driver cannot use this system....at least not while driving...an old school 5"-7" LCD will be installed somewhere in the front...again any feedback on this would be appreciated as well!

 

I'm not gonna hate b/c I wanna participate and learn to articulate on how to innovate and demonstrate to my mate what is new on the slate b/c that seems great and I can't wait I hope it won't be too late. Nice addition! I will probably add one when I get more backseat ridaz!

 

Nice! I wonder if I can use that while driving?

 

what an enthusiast

 

How much will something like that run once it is on the market?

 

On the market now. I will give a maxima.org deal for sure if there is any interest from the .org. Not just for in car stuff either! If you have a PS2 already then it should be just over $1K including everything you need for DVD and PS/PS2 gaming....power inverter, cabling, lithium battery/charger.

The complete in car immersive interactive system will be relatively big money (hasn't been finished yet) which will include full motion tracking, 3D control, Voice recognition and hopefully some other goodies.

Cool...thanks. I was hoping that the 1k included the PS2.
That will be a "down the road" mod for me. I don't have people in my car often enough to make it worth that much to me right now. But $1000 isn't really all that much for your own personal 45" screen!

 

i was goign to use the olympus vr gogles since they are widescreens and are also prettier and lighter.
