Not much to go on it seems. No resolution or FOV specs. I did notice that there doesn’t seem to be an IPD adjustment wheel in the pics. That would suck for us big headed folk.

They issued a new patent in it, it has a curved OLED display which will use a reflected lens to give 180 degree FOV

180 degrees! :surprise:

 

Just when I ordered a Reverb :doh:

 

Ah well, let's first see it happen and then see if it'll run on currently (realistically) available hardware

System specs:

 

i7-8700K @stock speed - GTX 1080TI @ stock speed - AsRock Extreme4 Z370 - 32GB DDR4 @3GHz- 500GB SSD - 2TB nvme - 650W PSU

HP Reverb G1 v2 - Saitek Pro pedals - TM Warthog HOTAS - TM F/A-18 Grip - TM Cougar HOTAS (NN-Dan mod) & (throttle standalone mod) - VIRPIL VPC Rotor TCS Plus with ALPHA-L grip - Pointctrl & aux banks <-- must have for VR users!! - Andre's SimShaker Jetpad - Fully adjustable DIY playseat - VA+VAICOM

I remember reading that when it came out. It has 4 screens. 2 high res center screens with lower res side screens on the outside of the center ones.

I would be happy with the same or slightly higher FOV at a higher DPI. Better distance spotting and clearer text.

FoV is certainly nice. But resolution is king. I found that out firsthand when I ditched the 5K+ for Reverb.
