My primary use is immersive gaming. Particularly combat vehicle sims and MMORPGs.
Can I ask the forum, what do they want to use the Cinemizer OLED for? Is there a specific thing they'd like to do, or a variety of different uses?

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
Reality... after considering all my head tracking options i decided to separate it from the HMD and buy a trackIR (with the optional emitter)
Its a bit more futzy and used best if you are seated, but it really does an incredible job of head tracking. And if i upgrade my glasses at some point, I don't have to re-buy the tracker

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
TrackIR is cool if the games you play support it. Mostly this means simulations. I play mostly FPS games, so the TrackIR does not seem worth it. Hopefully the Carl Zeiss head-tracker will support a wide variety of titles.

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
Hi all, it’s been annoying me not knowing how long it’s going to take until this product is going to be available to purchase, so I contacted the company directly. See below for my email and the response I received.
Email: “I am enquiring about the Cinemizer OLED estimated release date, particularly for Europe and the UK. I have read that the US release is estimated for some time this summer. Myself and a number of others that I found in a head mounted display forum are all currently looking to purchase a HMD in the near future, we have been waiting for the Cinemizer OLED to be released. However with the lack of information on the release date many people are talking about purchasing the Vuzix Wrap 1200, which is due to be released in August, even though it looks like an inferior product to the Cinemizer OLED. So if it were possible to get a rough estimation of an expected release date even if it could be confirmed that it would be released by the end of this year I know most people would wait for your product. So if you could give me any information on the release date of your product it would be greatly appreciated.”
Response: “thank you for your inquiry and the interest in the Carl Zeiss cinemizer OLED.
We are currently in the prototype testing phase. The expected launch date is beginning of 2012, Jan. or Feb.
You can register to our newsletter on cinemizer.com to stay informed.

Please do not hesitate to contact me directly in case of further questions.

At least we now know roughly how long we will have to wait if you do want the Cinemizer OLED.

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
He does also say though the OLED screens have such a high pixel density that you cannot see individual pixels. I was just wondering, as I have never owned or tried a HMD, whether this is a problem with such headsets as the Vuzix Wrap 920 and if so will it likely be a problem with the 1200 as it still uses LCD screens. Can someone in the know give me their opinion on pixel visibility in recent LCD screens used in HMDs. Because if they are visible then I am still sold on the OLED and think ill wait for one to be release.cybereality wrote:The guy says its barely 600P, which I'm not even sure what that would work out to.

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
Jan/Feb 2012, that's good to know. Though, I was already set on buying the 1200VR, so that doesn't change my decision much.
In terms of visible pixels, it is not a huge issue. I use the Vuzix Wrap 310, which is only 428 x 240 (one forth the res of 1200VR), and it looks OK. Granted if you look for pixels, you can find them, but it is not super obvious.

not sure what quality the OLEDs will be for cimemizer....anyhow i guess need to wait for it's release and reviews...then try....
But it' d not be the same as OLEDs from eMagin as they suck big time....most importantly the sharpness is missing and brightness does not fill-in for 'sharpness' hence i come back to my headplay which has sharp image quality with decent colors sacrificing the optics [FOV] a bit......hope wrap 1200 will also be in the same league as headplay but with better 3D support....let's see

Thanks for the info cybereality thats good to know. With not ever being able to try a HMD I was unsure if it was a problem at all.cybereality wrote:Jan/Feb 2012, that's good to know. Though, I was already set on buying the 1200VR, so that doesn't change my decision much.

Im currently at Uni, so funds are tight and unlike some of you high rollers I think I can only afford one of the 2 headsets. At the moment I’m struggling on the decision of whether to just get the 1200 ready for the release of Battlefield 3 or to wait for the OLED.
This probably should be a new thread and don’t want to take this one off course but I just wanted to quiz some of you more experienced users on the motion tracking part of a set up. Although head tracking on the glasses would be good for a number of games I feel for first person shooters that having a gun controller with the tracking attached to the gun would be more realistic a feel. Essentially I want to create something similar to this guy but with a HMD
http://www.youtube.com/user/TheRedneckTechie" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
He uses a gyration air mouse for his game gun. Has anyone tried this type of setup and do you know what the best\most accurate tracker I could use is (within a reasonable price range)? Apparently the Razer Hydra is being integrated with BF3 but I don’t think this will work as I want it to.
I think the greatest setup would be to have motion tracking for your head to look around and a movable crosshair within the screen (like with the PS3 move games) to aim with a gun controller but that would only be possible if the game was made for it, I hope they will be one day.

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
Yes, that would be the ultimate control setup but hardly any games are made to support this. The only one I tried that was advanced like this was UT2004 with the Vuzix driver (so it should work for 1200VR). It allowed independent looking and aiming (headtracker for look, mouse for gun). Pretty cool, but it was only one game. Most other games just use mouse emulation.

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
I'm planning on getting one of these since it supports the PS3s frame-packing out-of-the-box. I also found a 3d compatible HDMI splitter for ~$30. Does anyone know what happens if you give a non-3d TV a frame-packed signal? Does it just show the left image and ignore the extra pixels or does it freak out and do something weird?

I have the AR Drone which could be really fun flying with HMDs too (FPV)
have anyone done a comparison to the new Sony HMD, has sony even stated that their HDM will hit the market, or is it only a prototype?

Except for the fact that Carl Zeiss has officially said that the release date for them is January, and they are giving out review units to FPV fliers. That seems pretty close to reality to me!

OLED version with HDMI input for testing given to FPV fliers - who 'd use it to watch the scenery 'down below' from a pathetic camera on board the plane.....most stupid move from zeiss !
it's like emagin 3dvisor given to those people with a composite->VGA converter to review emagin or to make a joke of emagin itself.... how 'd they even think of this method of getting reviews i wonder !
this is NOT the stuff for FPV guys....honestly this is for gamers who enjoy extensive 2d/3d gaming i wonder who they are targeting for this coveted product....
secondly - if that's true why do not we have the official specs from zeiss - their website does not make any ref. to OLED version at all....still the old cinemizer plus[discontinued] ....why ?

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
They have sent out units to people in several fields, including some guys who make car racing simulators, and some guy who specializes in filming 3D videos of safari hunts in Africa. The reason they do this is because they want a wide range of feedback, and at this point, they are not trying to build hype with the general public. They just want to get feedback on their prototype units, so they can fix any problems.ancjob wrote:this is NOT the stuff for FPV guys....honestly this is for gamers who enjoy extensive 2d/3d gaming i wonder who they are targeting for this coveted product....

They replied to someone on the German Facebook page for Carl Zeiss who asked when it would be released, the representative said January 2012.
The reason they do not have official specs up yet is most likely because they are still refining the product. Carl Zeiss is a large-ish company, and they have the resources to wait till the last second before they start the final manufacturing process. As for the Cinemizer Plus being discontinued, is it not pretty obvious? They would not keep making them if they are going to release a new model in just a few months! Most places are still in stock, they are just not making new units anymore.
Besides, who is to say they have not sent out review units to HMD/gaming enthusiasts? Maybe those guys are the only ones who can keep their mouths shut about it!

ok i get it cinemizer OLED is not 'on paper' concept and it's real...that's nice to know ....
i always get the feeling that only in rare cases the prototype really comes out for mass distribution ...
1)any idea abt the FOV if it's 35 or more ?
2)does it have HDMI 1.3 or 1.4a input ?
3)resolution of OLEDS ?
4)3d format supported?
any info ?

Re: Carl Zeiss Cinemizer OLED
quick maths on the Sony:
750" diagonal at 20m (787"): 600"x450".
circumfrence of a r=787" circle: 4945".
ratio: 0.1213379.
fov: 43 degrees.
my only experience is with an eMagin Z800; that was 105"@12', closer to 40 degrees.
interesting that Sony is going for such a set back image: 20m! anyone else used a HMD that has the screen really back?

750" at 20m sounds bogus. I seriously doubt the image looks that big or that far away. I did the math and 45 degree horizontal FOV is the same as a 23" monitor from 24". Not quite a big screen experience unless there are some crazy optics in that thing.

Where did i get the crazy idea Cinemizer Oled won't be 720p but 600p?

I'm not sure whether he means the Cinemizer is displaying 600p, or the iphone is outputting 600p. As far as I know there has been no official word on resolution from Zeiss.If you use the OLED goggles to watch a movie with the optional iPhone adapter, you’ll see that the OSD of the goggles show the incoming resolution at just below 600p.

Zeiss never confirmed the 720P resolution. Various blogs have been throwing that around, but we just don't know for sure.

since the news of sony hmd being real and available nov'11 [Japan and US]- cinemizer might put off plans to release it - i suspect !cybereality wrote:Zeiss never confirmed the 720P resolution. Various blogs have been throwing that around, but we just don't know for sure.
sony hmd will be a threat to both cinemizer and vuzix for the business reasons...anyway let's wait and watch..
