Virtual i - glasses are a virtual reality headset and weigh only eight ounces. The Product allows users to view everything from computer games and virtual reality environments to television and video programming in full color and hi-fi stereo sound. Virtual i - glasses create the effect of a large virtual screen in front of the viewer. The virtual i - glasses are compatible with personal computers, Amiga, and all major gaming systems including Sega, Nintendo and Sony. It also connects to television and VCRs.
The European PAL Video standard for Virtual i - glasses is exclusively developed and distributed by Escom. Please notice that the US - Version does not fit to the european PAL standard and no service can be provide. The Product is available by european dealers after the first of September 95.
Virtual i - O has made some influential friends lately. IBM and Microsoft have aggreed to support the company's i - glasses. Virtual i - O's headset will be compatible with a large number of future Microsoft Windows 95 and IBM OS/2 games. The Amiga development community also showed interest for the i -glasses. We think that this is the break through of VR. Make your mind move.
See you on the other side.
