See What You Have Been Missing!

Finally, see what you've been missing. V8 sets a new standard in high performance, professional HMDs. New active matrix LCDs with true VGA ((640x3)x480) pixel resolution provide bright, vibrant color and a CRT quality image. New mechanical designs means V8 is lighter, easier to use, and more durable. V8 dons quickly and comfortably using rear and top ratchets and a spring loaded forehead rest. Adjustments are quick and precise. The interpupillary adjustment doubles as an eye relief adjustment to accommodate glasses. High performance Sennheiser earphones swivel, rotate, and remove easily when not in use.

Inputs and outputs for audio, video, and power are handled through V8 external control box. Red LEDs indicate Power On and Stereo modes. Standard 15 pin VGA type connectors accept VGA (640 x 480 60Hz) inputs, readily available on todays graphics engines and workstations. Overall brightness and contrast adjustments are easily tuned from the front of the control box. External VGA monitors may be connected to the MONITOR OUT located on the control box.
