We had Carl Machover (past president of NCGA) in our lab for a demo last week, and he was quite excited to see live VR (I don't think he had experienced it before). He was quite optimistic about future prospects for technology development, but felt that a "big time player" (such as an IBM or an HP) would have to discover there're bucks in it for them and to press onward for mass marketing of some of the equipment, e.g., head-mounted displays, gloves, low cost graphics scene generators, etc.
