I am looking for information on the SID display type.
I am familiar with the HMD's that are on the market
but I am intrigued by the SID's.  I have seen a picture
of one, but I have been unable to obtain any information
on this display type.

Does it incorporate head tracking, or is the large field of
view enough for the immersion factor, (similar to the dome
at the OMNI theaters)?
What are the cost differences between the HMD's and
the SID's?


Thanks for your input
