Amiga Virtual Reality

[Hyperspeed]

I think the i-Glasses were made by Escom in the mid-90s... they were very expensive ($1,000+ I think).

Gloom Deluxe was another game that supported them, not that you'd want to play a game like that on a virtual 80' monitor.

;-)

I did read here though that the REAL red and black virtual reality machines used A3000s with some sort of dual GFX card setup.


EDIT:
Ahh, Matt_H beat me!

Man, that was a long time ago....

Those must have been 1992/93!

Hold on a second... wasn't Xoops censoring the word 'cock(/pit)'?

:-D

I wonder what games would make the Top 10 of the Virtual Reality genre for Amiga. Quake would have to be placed somewhere.

Wonder if the Battletech source-code is floating about...

:-)

Walker was a great game, a very impressive blaster.

I was thinking it would be cool to attach a radio camera to a remote control car and feed the signal through the glasses and drive like you were in the seat or something. Now, if I can only figure out how to get a foam disc launcher to work by remote control.

Imagine a radio controlled helicopter with dual cameras... you could get up to some serious mischief there!

Model rockets... now there's a thought!

I often see radio controlled cars, boats, hovercraft, planes, submarines, helicopters, jets, gliders... but I have yet to see radio controlled cruise missiles.

An Amiga launch base with some i-Glasses and an antennae - all you'd need to start World War 3!
