On youtube one guy using trackball attached on knee instead of mouse using cockpit instruments and switches. Other solution is leapmotion for using your hands in virtual space.

hegykc did you think about to start some kickstarter?

You completly miss the point I want to say. Forget about AMD/Nvidia stuff here. Personally I could be called Nvidia fan but to be honest last 8 years I'm using AMD GPU simply from my experience Nvidia not justified bigger price so if you want to pay twice much for similar performance your choice. OK lets stay with your 680 as base no new graphic card. Good card and you will be able to use it with 34" ultra wide 1080 height off screen. Comparing it with TV vide is same as 40"TV but the high is smaller. It is like when you wach movie 2.35:1 without this black parts. That is size in inches. Do the test go look your monitor close as you can and in one point you will see grid like screendoor effect in oculus. To notice it you will need on monitor to get close 3 to 5" on TV it is noticeably even on 30" and you don't want this. So 34" monitor even on 1080 is better solution than TV and could be paired with your existing monitor for work and you will be able to play even FPS on it and have benefit from it. For Curved 1440 you will need 970 minimum or reducing some details on 680 it is on edge here. 1440 is better but increase problem with spotting targets. That is up to you to decide what is your priority. Like I say before there is no perfect solution so it is up to you where, how and how much you will compromise.

It's professional tool for 3D modeling and will be to hard for flying.

There is no big difference between 34 and 35". Acording what you say and have in mind price range LG 34UM67 is piece for you. It is 1080p but it is half price of BanQ. In that case to be able using FreeSync option for GPU is R9-390. Price range of GTX-970 but in benchmarks it is more close to GTX-980. My friend got Samsung curved 21/9 34" 1440p and R9-380 so on LG 34UM67 with R9-390 this will fly full details without any flickering or stuttering what is great. Definitely best buy combo for DCS. About VR better wait minimum 1 year if not 2. First of all lets wait for StarVR to come. [ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GADtniiZL9c[/ame] Other fact with VR is that GTX-980 and R9-390 ar on limit with VR. VR have high demand for GPU power. Benefit is SLI/CF and DCS here is not standing good. There is no benefit from it in DCS yet and when will be who knows. Monitor is multipurpose and there is no VR which will completely eliminate need for monitor.

Tricky question. I will try to pass you some of my experience ans observation from some other people experience. TV in general is not that good for gameplay, big picture look nice but latency is big and 1080p is too much pixelated even 40" size. Only better but more expensive models are suitable for play but still couldn't match quality with monitors. Only 4K TV but this is raising complete new discussion and in my opinion it is not jet time for it. So TV I'm not recommended. Now we are coming to something what I think is best solution, sweet spot is Ultra Wide 21:9 34". Comparing to your monitor which is 16:9 aspect ratio. So in general 1080p model have high of screen like your 27" so imagine your monitor is 10" wider to get picture of size and what you will get. [ame] [/ame] Now we are coming to resolution. Model I show you is great for gaming especially because free sync but limitation is 1080p. There is more expensive 1440p model which is better but more expensive model without free sync or is way more expensive if have G-sync. [ame] [/ame] So 1080p model is smoother and 1440p better graphic. Question is what do you really need? In gaming this difference in resolution is questionable. In one hand some game have benefit but only as eye candy with higher resolution. In flight sims this benefit is not that much in favor. General look is better but higer resolution will not help you spotting enemy better, just opposite. In Il2 CloD there is trick if you lower you resolution you will spot enemy easier than those with 1080p. Simply pixels are bigger and graphic engine react always on distance in game not resolution so lower ress bigger pixels result with bigger dot(plane) on screen. So do you need 1440p or 1080p enough for you depend on other games or needs you have. About screen refresh rate higher is better only in games and not all type of games. Battlefield or similar fps yes definitely but in all sims type 60hz is more than good. Higher refresh rate get in favor only when you constantly have fast and sudden movement what is not case in sims. Prove is again in Il2 CloD trick for eliminating tearing and stuttering by reducing fps on 30 with some video recording software. So that's it see what you need and made compromise because there is no perfect solution always is some pro and cons but this 34" 21:9 is definitely today's sweet spot. Only question is do you need 1440p or you will be good with 1080p. If you are satisfied with resolution on your 27" monitor than go for 1080p and this additional 10" in wideness make huge difference.

This is questionable because just screen and mipi board cost more than LG G3. Is the benefit from direct HDMI connection that big so this will worth bodering?

I'm having same idea as well.

Not just in resolution. More important aspect is PPI. DK1 was around 300ppi, DK2 is around 400ppi what was effecting with less screen door effect. Samsung have 530ppi what make screen door effect less noticeable comparing it with DK2. So even if you set up same resolution as DK2 (2x 960x1080) picture will be better because this difference in ppi (400 vs 530). [ame] [/ame]

R9 295 is working and have performance like Crossfire 2 graphic cards only it is fiscally one graphic card with predefined CF i essence.

Yes in way of more reliable and precise head tracking. Movement when it works in both cases is the same but with better focus I didn't get in situation to lose tracking or dots overlapping and canceling. So it is important feature.

Thanks it is work now is better. Got now dots with 5px and before was 10px. But I think with real precise focus you can do it even better. Now I will test it in real headtracking in game. Thanks for the tip one more time Len62. :thumbup: :pilotfly:

I remove my IR filter fiscally and now is out of focus so my dots are to big what have tendencies to easy overlapping itch other and canceling signal. Focus give you possibility to adjust size of dots what give you more precision. It is most of the reason why people have problems with setup. To keep focus you need complete new lens and lens holder or maybe remove IR filter layer somehow without removing glass which is already focused on original lens. Did someone try to remove it with for example with Nail polish removal (acetone)? Maybe that way we could keep original lens and holder.

Yes. It is like DK2. 1080p have approximate little bit above 400ppi what have screendoor effect. CV1 have approximate 530ppi so it is around 30% better picture. If they start to build 1440p 530ppi screens in OSVR that will be improvement.

Point is as well to reduce of the cost. You don't have to unplug it from PC just on camera and plug it in clip to charge and back when you go to use it. This is not much trouble to do.

http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=2634122&postcount=32 That could force tham to lower the price as well or they will start to claim copy rights on VR similar like Natural Point.

With Rift prices announcement this start to be more actual. There is two dissent GearVR replicas with even some better possibilities such as individual lens tune. TERA VR Box GMYLE VR LG G3 with 2560x1440, 530ppi you can find new for 200€ Plus apps like intogame or trinus VR all could be less than 300€ With such price of Rift I expect demand for such apps will be larger what will make profitable developing such apps and expect even better performance in future.

No 6DoF so it is better to use EDtrecker than.

And yes even I made one by my self and work perfectly I will buy one more from you so count me in for that one.

Is this fair business policy by skyrocket realistic price and instead keep market share by quality and fair price NP are doing more effort to prevent competition by repression. Yes that is my opinion and don't understand such NP policy. Thai is why I'm supporting such effort like Freetrack protokol which is BTW completly legal and it is part of multiple games same as TrackIR protocol. NP is trying to stop progress. All you knoe that Edison is inventor of light bulb. But how many of you know that Edison invention was never get in commercial use. Real light bulb with Wolfram what is light bulb we know and use today was actually made by Croatian guy called Franjo Hanaman. Imagine that what NP request same principals we used on light bulbs we will still be in the dark. That way you are just bad guy who trying prevent progress. That is why I can't support such guys like NP that is my personal opinion and no matter how good NP product are I will never give them single $ because principle. I cant support such bad behavior and disrespect to the customers from NP.

No this is called greed. Business will cost 60$ and they will still earn dissent money without oppress people who want that technology be on realistic price. I don't want that someone dictate me what I have to use it is just against the low too. I'ts called monopol and it is forced and here in Europe customers are protected against it. They right is to chose they business policy but in same way my right is to chose should I accept it and chose what product I want. My point is NP is chuse go against customers not adopt price with reducing of cost of production and out dating technology. Normal is that how some technology getting older it is normal that price is droping and they didn't do that. Today production of TrackIR is much more cheaper than it was when this product was release. If they go with logic and reducing price with time they will keep monopol by decent price not by force.

TrackIR is overrated and overpriced piece of old technology. If you compare it with other legal product on the market for example Oculus Rift. Oculus is twice more expensive but give you 10 times more than TrackIR will ever. So if you compare performance per $ you will see what rip of is TrackIR. That is the point and they are not invented head-tracking, it was already invented before so they used others ideas to create TrackIR and today trying to prevent other to do the same what they do to the others. If they after 5 years or more how hardware price drooping down adopt their price to the realistic they will no need to scare about competition. Today realistic price for trackIR should be around 50$ not more and with that price no one exact no one will discus about it at all because everyone will use trackIR because will be good, reliable and not expensive product. Why it is not like this you have to ask NP because today they more think about it how to prevent competition instead conquer market by realistic price and quality. This is called greed, nothing else.

This theme started more than 2 and half years ago. Is there any real progress made so far or it is just bunch of nice ideas which will never be realized at all?

I think with trino you have to use tridef3D too.

Could you sell double cam for those who want more precision tracking with two cameras?
