OK, guys (and gals)... I've been given a $30,000 research grant for VR. I have the standard home/hobby PowerGlove & Sega Specs... I can program C... I've Been reading this list and keeping somewhat up to date on global VR events... What to do with that 30k? I've been talking to Sense8 about their WorldToolKit... which looks decent, but how do I accessorize (VR fashion?)... I would like to hear from anyone who uses the World Tool Kit about how you use it and what hardware you're driving it with... I wanted to get the Dataglove, but I hear VPL's "dead" and I'm confused on the issue of product support... So, basically, if you were given a 30k edicational grant for VR stuff, what would YOU get??? I'm very confused, but I have to buy it pretty soon... I would be EXTREMELY grateful for any help. +-------Matt-Willis--------------------------------+ | Matt Willis ASTMWILL@STETSON.BITNET | elsewhere: | Matt Willis Head of the Underground | mwill@mindvox.phantom.com | Matt Willis Robotech PBM List | +-------Matt-Willis--------------------------------+ "Absolutely alone in awareness of the mechanism." -Agrippa by WG
