iPod Virtual Reality Really is a Reality

iPod Virtual Reality (VR), what the H – E – doublehockeysticks will they think of next!
I don’t know how this one slipped by me, what with my exoskeleton fetish and all (hmm, maybe I should delete that… naah) but Cary over at Church of the iPod (yes, he religiously worships iPods ok, so what?) was kind enough to send me the following tip:
Hey Paul…just thought you might be interested…
So the guys over at Make Magazine were curious… maybe they could explain it better:
This is a bit on the Snowcrash side of Maker projects, but I wanted to see if the new iPod video would foster a new market for VR / LCD goggles. I have two types, one is meant for viewing video full screen, with both eyes – the other is a one screen LCD. Each has their uses with the iPod video and I may actually start using these on some trips when I don’t feel like holding the iPod video the entire time watching a video…So, here are the photos of the iPod video, homemade battery extender, travel case and LCD goggles….[snip] And as soon as I get time, controlling iTunes and iPods with a VR glove!
About the exoskeleton fetish, here’s proof – I have the complete Star Trek Voyager series on DVD, because of Seven of Nine, the cybernetic implant/exoskeleton clad Borg turned human played by Jeri Ryan. Oohhh, more…
