Not sure if it's along the same track, but as for using HMD's in a
tele-robotics environment, I, with some other students, am currently
developing an airship that will sport a set of stereoscopic video cameras
that will be movable using the tracking of a Forte VFX1, with the
stereoscopic visioning through the cameras and eyepieces.
    Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Might see about using the
converted PowerGlove as a control, or for a seperate robotic arm. Pretty
cheap, easy solutions, but they work.
