Sony prepares sales of PUD-J5A head-mounted display
From September 26 Sony starts to ship PUD-J5A head-mounted displays for PlayStation 2. The devices also feature Head-action Tracker technology (HT) for tracking horizontal and vertical head movement to correct the displayed image.
First, PUD-J5A will be shipped exclusively from the company website, dedicated to PlayStation 2 for 59800 yens (about $500).
PUD-J5A has two 0.44-inch LCD panels, providing image equivalent to a 42-inch screen at several meters distance. It features USB, S-video and voice terminal. Head-mounted module weighs 340 g, has 200x100x250 mm dimensions and combines display and headphones. Interface module weighs 80 g, has 70x20x110 mm dimensions. Pity, but panel resolution is not provided, but $500 is not much for such a device (remeber older VR helms, costing $1000 for the moment of appearance). And it would be interesting to try something similar with a usual PC.
