Re: Virtual Reality 1st Person Driver?

a few years back i actually played with this idea. We had 2 axis cameras mounted on the bot for stereoscopic vision on the driver station. We used green/magenta glasses(could also use red/blue) and while it did work. it wasn't responsive enough to really be usable for a match. The low framerate and horrible latency made it be unusable. if the latency could be reduced( at least two orders of magnitude) then it may have potential but until then this type of system simply isn't worth the trouble.
