Did anyone try this? How does it work? Is it worth it? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=174&item=4134534409&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW http://www.gb007c2112.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/ebay/ultimate_vr/immersive_vr_diagram.htm | ||

Hehe, that fresnel lens is just large convex lens. Does it work? If you like playing game 3 feet in front of a 30' monitor, yes. It is no magic, just a light weight magnifier. | ||

The lens' on Ebay are cheap and paper thin. You can get the same thing at Office Depot for $5. I have a very nice fresnel lens that I purchased from a disability supplies company. Metal framed with supports that sit under the monitor that allows you to adjust distance. It was like 24" square but I cut it down to 14"x10". I didn't relize how a fresnel worked so I thought "bigger is better", wrong. I built a black foamboard housing for it to keep any light from entering between the monitor and lens. It was very cool with my shutter glasses. It has a blue tint to it which helped offset the darkening of the glasses. Made my 19" Sony Trinitron into a 25" monitor. I've upgraded to a projector and have used the lens supports for my floating desk. I still have the framed lens around here somewhere... Just when and found it in a closet. there's a couple of small surface scratched on it. If you want it I can send it to you postage due as It'll probably just end up getting bounced around and destroyed in the closet. Let me know. John | ||
