Toshiba’s 360 Degree Panorama Bubble Helmet
Ladies and gents, Toshiba’s Bubble Helmet that looks like a space helmet claims that it gives gamer a 360 degree panorama view. That’s weird because I didn’t know that our neck can be that flexible in term of viewing angle. Interesting halloween costume, goes well with a space suit. Can I breath inside the “shell”? I think it would work great together with Nintendo’s Wii Console system. Imagine fighting enemies in a 360 degree panorama view with a Wii remote controler. That would be fun. Maybe in the next few years when these technology mature.
