Screen With 180 Degree Field of View

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the exercizes-in-skepticism dept.

emj writes to tell us project jDome has started actively soliciting consumer feedback and, of course, donations. They are currently promising to deliver their "180 degree FOV monitor" this year for a pricepoint of around $200. The videos and talk have been circulating for the last couple of weeks or so, but they have added a video of the supposed tech in action. Buyer beware, but I would love to see a couple of reviewers get ahold of this and let us know what the story is.

    What's the resolution of your projector? Only 1280x768? After getting used to my 30" monitor, playing with any less resolution than 2560x1600 seems cheesy by comparison.

    Cheese is simply a matter of preferences and what you are used to.
