More RTA/FWS/eMagin/BAE/DRS...Army: New Wireless Sight Offers Leap-Ahead for Night Marksmanship

For the FWS-I and the ENVG III to be used effectively, infantry officials will need to develop new "tactics, techniques and procedures" which means additional training for infantry squads and platoons, according to Phil Cheatham, deputy branch chief for Electronics and Special Developments at the Maneuver Center of Excellence, located at Fort Benning, Ga.

"You will see the enemy and be able to see how you want to engage and destroy that enemy … before he can see you," Sloane said. "It is absolutely incredible."

Beyond gaming: virtual reality helps people with vision disabilities

http://vrguy.blogspot.com/2015/07/beyond-gaming-virtual-reality-helps.html

Visionize Has Everything, Yuval Boger of Sensics, It's Big, It's Heavy, It's Unwieldy It Induces Nausea, It's a Dive Mask HMD! Yuval Boger was one of the first to embrace Oculus and It's Ilk, wonder if he is having any second thoughts...

In its current form, the Visionize headset isn't quite the ideal solution either. While it's significantly lighter and more compact than LVES, it still suffers from the same problem all virtual reality headsets currently have.
"The device is clunky, a little heavy and awkward," said McCurdy-Byrd, who took part in Massof's trials with Visionize. "It reminded me of goggles."
Both Massof and Werblin also acknowledged that there are problems to be worked on, like dealing with the nausea that comes from using a VR headset (a problem the gaming community is also trying to solve), and training patients to use the headset.

The definization explanization of fullizied productization

DEFINITION of 'Productize'

To take a new service, product or product feature - that a company has provided to a single customer or a few customers on a custom basis - and turn it into a standard, fully tested, packaged, supported and marketed product. For example, a person can productize their expertise by putting it into a tangible object by creating a product based on that knowledge.

I think Mr. Stern has been talking to Oppenheimer's Mr. Uerkwitrz...Wall Street analysts say virtual reality can't go mainstream until these issues are fixed



low volume projection for VR Headsets in the next three years. Based on the what they anticipate consumers reaction will be to the Dive Mask HMDs. I've always thought Oculus was very capable of poisoning the VR well with all that "world changing" crap and their inability to design something that doesn't make users ill.  Uerkwitz knows there is an HMD with better graphics and higher resolution out there. If eMagin's iHMD can deliver the graphics and resolution required then others should be able to figure out inputs, content and user experiences that counter Oppenheimer's current assumptions about Virtual Reality and it's prospects. It's interesting that Oppenheimer is damping expectations for VR all the while their whiz-kid Tech guy is following eMagin. A little 3 Card Monte perhaps.

Intelligent Decisions DSTS (eMagin Inside) is Making it's way to the the Corps of Cadets, Nice

“The purpose of [DSTS] is to build muscle memory and familiarization of basic squad tactics and what could possibly happen on a deployment,” said Drill Sergeant William Medina.
“I was really impressed by the technology and how much they could put into a little tiny screen,” said Isak Visser, cadet from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington. “I could crouch, I could make hand gestures, I could lie down, I could aim my weapon. All the functionality of it was really cool– just how much I was able to do.”
Major Mike Lawson from Oklahoma State University in Stillwater, Oklahoma, OIC of the operation, said this is a common reaction.
“Everybody has been impressed with it,” Lawson said. “I think it’s a great way to relate tactics to the video game generation.”

Spark is not the only one who sees how


deeply invested the tech blogosphere is in Oculus and "deep sixes" any contrary view or alternative design.  Wined and dined,  requests for interviews never turned down, plenty of content supplied,  hang on every inane utterance that falls out of Luckey's mouth. Reminds me of other media that is good at doing what they are told.

I figure if I am interested in something then other people may well be.
As for the information, the best place to start is the obvious places.
That being the official source – the eMagin company website and its public filings.
It is amazing that so many people blog about this subject elsewhere and are unaware of this factual information.
Also amazing is Road To VR being pasted left and right with Oculus stuff and eMagin stuff is being deep-sixed very quickly.
That will surely change.

    Why Virtual Reality Will Bring Back the Arcade




    Virtual Reality Is Still Not Ready for Prime Time

    An optimistic target for the high-end virtual reality market might be 10 million headsets in 2016, which is what Augmented World Expo CEO Ori Inbar recently ventured for sales of VR and AR glasses to “early adopters.” On the VR side, those early adopters are largely PC gamers who have historically been shown to have the inclination and disposable income to shell out for whatever new hardware makes their gaming experience that much more immersive.
