Does X-Specs 3d exist as a product, and/or does Haitex Resources Inc. exist as a company? I want to build a Virtual reality instalation. I would be willing to buy a set of X-Specs used IF they came with sufficient info on programming them. On second thought,, if you have a set, and are willing to sell them, I could negotiate with you regardless of any docs you might have. And, if you have no glasses, but have programming docs, I would love to work something out with you. Charles Hymes chymes@csmil.umich.edu

No they don't, but here's what you need to know. The shutters (lenses) are controlled by the transition of the control line. A low-to-high will close (darken) one side and open the other; a high-to-low will close the other side. If no transition occures for a long period of time both shutters open. The control line is usually the "fire button" line of the second joystick port. The glasses do not work well with long-persistence[sp?] monitors, Flicker Fixers, or Commodore Display Enhancers. > On second thought,, if you have a set, and are willing to sell them, I > could negotiate with you regardless of any docs you might have. > And, if you have no glasses, but have programming docs, I would love > to work something out with you. > > Charles Hymes > chymes@csmil.umich.edu rsbx ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Raymond S.

I I was always a bit disappointed that more things did not support X-specs. It was such a neat concept, and especially at that price. I would have liked to see a good flight simultator which used it. - steve

Maybe you should get in contact with: Sense 8 Corp., Sausalito, California Eric Gullichsen UUCP: well!sense8!egullich or well!sense8!bhughes I met those people at a VR-conference in Berlin (Germany) and I know that they're using the Amiga quite a lot in their virtual reality projects. As far as I can remember they were also working with the Haitex-lenses... Hope this helps!
