We gave ourselves an early Xmas present this week. Two shiny new 65" Samsung 4K TV's. Photo attached.
They're driven by the NUC version of the JRiver Id iwe ship. The Id is sitting on the receiver in the picture. It has two HDMI ports. It's powerful enough to do 1080P, but not 4K.
Brad figured that the two combined are 7680x2160.
I've had this hair-brained idea for a while that we could eventually build a room that had TV's on all the walls and display a 360 degree image on them. So you could change the view from San Francisco cable cars to Swill Alp skiing and so on. This is a start.

Why not use an existing headset (powered by JRiver VR)? Surely it would be an order of magnitude less expensive.
-
a. I don't like wearing a headset.
b. Two or more people doesn't work well.
c. Quality? Maybe this has improved.
d. I expect affordable TV wallpaper within the next decade or so.
As I said, it's probably a hair-brained idea.

3D without glasses tech already exists. If the processing power can be mustered to control a 360 wall of this tech, it might be a substitute for a VR headset. But you'd need to do the floors and ceiling too, I think.
