- DeskFlyer, on 10/28/2007, -0/+103The web page is scaling the photo, resulting in jagged edges. Here's a direct link, looks much cleaner: http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/resources/2007/10/ ...
- coollettuce, on 11/07/2007, -6/+101Wow, it's Windows based.
- squirrelza, on 11/07/2007, -7/+93Dirty, dirty thoughts!
- Fizban140, on 11/03/2007, -17/+85Because defense of our nation is more important than you playing CS on a massive 3D resolution.
- djgreedo, on 11/03/2007, -0/+57Because they can afford it?
- MeltingIce, on 10/28/2007, -0/+55Screw Halo 3, I want to see Crysis on this baby
- muniak, on 11/07/2007, -1/+47You're only being buried because they're embarrassed that they agree.
- badboys213, on 10/28/2007, -1/+41thats no projector screen, that's a Portal!
- coollettuce, on 11/03/2007, -17/+55Don't ever use the defense of our nation as an excuse for anything, it leads down a slippery slope.
- elias, on 10/29/2007, -4/+42*Nice to watch pron on as I ***** my hand hard in my palm .....and cry when am done
-fixed - notjamt9000, on 10/30/2007, -0/+35They could be virtual binoculars, with little screens inside
- coolcash2005, on 10/28/2007, -7/+42Dugg for "gigantabolous"
- toasty168, on 10/28/2007, -1/+32if ever a piece of technology could give me a boner, this would be it.
- MeltingIce, on 11/05/2007, -1/+32It was using Windows XP
- coudboule, on 10/28/2007, -4/+29This is a direct link to the video: http://www.mersive.com/20_movie.swf
- ChileanGoD, on 11/03/2007, -6/+27Honestly, when did you ever actually defended your nation? I mean, literally. For example, in the way France defended their nation against the Nazis.
- bugaloobob, on 11/03/2007, -0/+21According to George Carlin, dirty thoughts are what power technology. :-)
- MonarchWastxD, on 10/28/2007, -16/+35Put this in a crucial helicopter:
"He's on your tail!"
"Alright, I see him!"
"Good thing we got this new scre...what?!"

"Goddamnit!"
I think not. - septicmadman, on 10/27/2007, -3/+19Ick hd porn is not for me. I prefer blurry.
- wiifm69, on 10/29/2007, -0/+15now, if only I had 17 projectors...
- arcooke, on 10/28/2007, -5/+20"The result is stunning, but wait until you see it in motion after the jump."
Where? Am I the only one not seeing a video anywhere..? - Abomonog, on 11/03/2007, -1/+15Actually, this is the first simulator I've ever seen that has graphics better than a high end video game. Usually the military has sims that are a few years behind graphically. The A1 Abrams sims being a good example. They got the 7 million dollar booths but the graphics look like they're circa 1994. Up until now the aircraft simulators were just as behind. I'm glad the military finally got ahead of the gamers in the simulation department.
- mykodacon, on 10/29/2007, -2/+16I would prefer an xbox 360 with Halo hooked up to that thing. Or Forza 2 Motorsport. Seriously.
- inactive, on 10/27/2007, -1/+14All you need is a girl
- adraft, on 10/29/2007, -1/+14Someone who wasn't having sex would be craving porn on this thing. If you're getting it already you realize that HD is for gaming.
- unearth, on 10/28/2007, -1/+12Of course it's Windows-based. Its a ultra-high resolution multi-projector VR system, not a delicious Thanksgiving turkey.
- crownrai, on 10/28/2007, -1/+12Is he using binoculars? I can't imaging that working very well against a projected screen.
- diggjs05, on 10/28/2007, -1/+11Since this in NV, they could've saved millions by doing it outside and get the real backdrop.
- syc151, on 10/29/2007, -0/+10BRAVO!
- arunforce, on 10/27/2007, -0/+10The terrorists have lost.
- Myztry, on 10/27/2007, -0/+9Maybe if the US government deploys remote controlled 'kill bots' and starts recruiting Quake/Halo/ETC players. Getting the crosshair to change from green to red based on video may be a bit of an issue though.
- DudleyInnocent, on 11/03/2007, -5/+14I dugg you down, but you made me laugh.
Good show. - Daiken, on 11/03/2007, -1/+10Actually, they have very similar technology that will soon be sold for gaming. I remember seeing it at a technology show recently. It uses rear projection, the semi-spherical chamber is smaller, but overall it's still pretty cool. Main advantage is peripheral vision coming into play.
- praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -0/+8Spotter.
- madk, on 10/28/2007, -1/+9/obvious
- mashw, on 10/28/2007, -1/+8Improve my killing power eyy...
- neodorian, on 10/29/2007, -1/+8Or if your leaders don't follow our orders, we might just come and knock them over.
- ellabee, on 10/28/2007, -0/+7I see a nickel in his pocket! 1993, I think.
- ChileanGoD, on 11/03/2007, -1/+8Philip J. Fry : "There is absolutely no shame in wussing out"
- Disease, on 10/27/2007, -0/+6World of Warcraft guild leaders can be our commanders.
- opnickc, on 10/28/2007, -2/+8"Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice. . . er. . . once ye been fooled you don't get fooled again, see?"
- epuiatti, on 11/02/2007, -5/+11Dugg you down for sucking on his balls
- dhughes, on 10/27/2007, -0/+6 You'll still get some jerks shouting "Veto!"
- ryancxx, on 10/29/2007, -1/+6"scratch the hell out of her"
hahahaha - rabidgoldfish, on 10/27/2007, -1/+6R U SERIOS!?
That was just about the dumbest comment I have ever seen on Digg; and that's saying something. How could you possibly equate this awesome projector system to "PURE EVIL". - b0wl0fud0n, on 10/28/2007, -1/+6If I were to design the system, I'd be choosing Windows as well, only because the video card drivers for Linux just haven't caught up to Windows drivers yet.
- neodorian, on 10/29/2007, -1/+5I agree with the first part but it seems like lately, us guys with the best war tech seem to be doing an awful lot of taking the *****, screwing the wife, and killing the kids. It's almost like we've stooped to the level of our enemies in order to fight them. Still, we have 9-projector systems.
- sishgupta, on 10/28/2007, -0/+4The linux nvidia drivers aren't exactly up to the same quality as the windows drivers either.
I use linux as my main OS. - Bdog2g2, on 10/27/2007, -0/+4Wonder if Best Buy or Circuit City will price match that? I'll keep a look out on SlickDeals.
