Craziest Sony Product Of 2011

It’s the early 1990s all over again! Sony revealed today that it is launching a new head-mounted display, able to screen both 2D and 3D. Sony is actually launching the product this fall in Japan. You can buy it. No, really. Called the Head Mounted Display Personal 3D Viewer HMZ-T1 (needs a sexier name), the contraption has two 720p OLED screens that promise to immerse viewers in 3D and surround sound. At CES, apparently, Sony had to measure people’s heads to get the viewing angle just right, while others complained that you needed to hold up the display with your hands so it didn’t fall down. posted on August 31, 2011 at 2:18pm EDT
