We are developing virtual reality for a "low-end" platform. We are working with
Amiga 3000's (one for each eye), the Power Glove, and a helmet which we 
recently built. The helmet consists of two Citizen color LCD screens (with
lenses and headphones. We are redesigning for a less cumbersome helmet which
will also employ mirrors.

We have stirred an incredible amount of interest on campus. There are groups
of students working on programming, graphics and 3D audio. 

We are interested in conferences and discussions with other people with
similar interests.
