Lady Gaga is releasing an HMD with 1.4" OLED screens

No time for me to put in my thoughts yet, unpacking from a long trip, but I saw this and had to post it:

1.4"? Perhaps good for a V4/6/8 refit!

But screens are looking outside not inside! Without any optics! :D
Also why refit? If this intent only for showing animated picture on your sunglasses I'm pretty sure they damn low-rez, Maybe lower than 240 x 240.

I am not even sure what I am looking at, but its nice to see celebrities working with this stuff. Now we just need her to do a music video wearing them, now all of a sudden HMDs will be cool. All the kids will be wearing them.

Gah, right you are! This is why I should not post when I am tired. :lol: A bit funny, how they are still a head mounted display, of sorts... Just reversed!

For some reason, I assumed this was the big break HMDs needed. I wanted so badly to believe! :lol:

The reason they make them like this is so you can make your girlfriend wear them while you make out and then the glasses will make it appear as if you are kissing a super-model. The ultimate beer-goggles!!!! LOL!!!!!!
