TDVisor Inputs

Post by eschur »

Right now the TDVisor control box takes both two DVI connections or two VGA connections. You need to loopback to your monitor by splitting off the left eye at this point. In the future we will probably have a loopback 2D output on the control box so you can plug that back into your monitor for simultaneous 2D viewing.

Does it need external power other than USB?

Power

Post by eschur »

At this time you need to plug it in to the wall socket.

I don't understand. Why is this so terrible?

I've never owned an HMD before.

Maybe you can't use it with notebooks on battery mode?
Maybe it's because of the heavy equipment --> additional transformater = additional weight and power consumption
