ABSTRACT

I’ve only hinted at virtual reality, a combination of Eyephone Goggles with a tiny screen in front of each eye, that lets you see moving images in three dimensions. Sensors connected with the goggles tell a silicon graphics computer which way your head is facing. If you move to the left, the computer compensates for that movement. The 3-D image you’re watching shifts to the right, as it would if you turned your head in the “real world.” The computer generates a new image every 1/20th of a second.
