Matt’s Review: 

Okay, interesting. It’s kind of a cool idea. I think that it would be weird to be wearing one in a coffee shop because you never know who’s around then. And I also think it would be weird to be wearing one while you’re sitting with somebody on the couch and you’re both wearing them watching different shows. That also seems super antisocial to me. Can’t see that actually happening but kind of a cool idea. What I’m sort of stumped on is they have a $3,834 goal. I would imagine building something like this, the R&D, the testing, the prototypes, the getting it all right, you need 50 or $100,000 minimum just to be able to sort of figure out that you could build it and get it to work. So I don’t understand the goal but I mean either way they far surpassed it. So it sounds like, you know, if that’s the right number then they’re gonna be able to launch this thing.

I do see that you know if this becomes popular, I would think that companies like Sony and LG and other companies would get in on this and start making the same kind of products. So I think if it’s successful they’re gonna suddenly find themselves facing a lot of competition. Then probably knock off Chinese competition that’ll be selling them for cheap. But it does seem like something that would be kinda cool like on an airplane. You might wanna have that instead of having you know your laptop or phone out where other people are seeing what’s 

on your screen. That’s you know situation, I could see it for. Or if you just live in a small apartment but you wanna have a big screen TV, but a big screen TV takes up a lot of space and costs a lot of money. If you could have a headset like this that used it that might make sense. I don’t know so much about working. A multi-monitor setup is great but I’m not sure you’d wanna have that in headset form. But I mean overall the idea seems good and I’m amazed at the commercial quality of the videos that you know these kinds of products are putting out again for their Kickstarter campaigns. It’s like you know full-quality television commercial. So that’s impressive and it’s probably goes to some of the reason they were able to raise a couple hundred thousand dollars. So I think this is a cool product. I don’t think it’ll be used as much as they’re suggesting in the commercial or their you know fundraising campaign video. And I also think if it hits there’s gonna be a lot of competition they’re gonna be facing. But for a Kickstarter campaign, seems pretty cool.
