This is a good idea, provided that you are able to send the HMD an image with higher resolution then the native resolution of the display. Otherwise the warping inside the FPGA will have too few pixels to work with. /Björn ------------------ Read this topic online here: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?p=65702#65702 _______________________________________________ osg-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-users-openscenegraph.org
