So you think theoretically the Rift, or something like it, could enable a person to perceive that they could see 360 degrees? It's interesting but I imagine even if that could be possible, it would cause intense disorientation. I haven't used it yet, but I've heard people say it's really uncomfortable when something…

The Rift is still designed with the normal human field of view in mind. You'd need some sort of direct neural input to access the visual cortex. I've got some ideas about it, but I need somebody who's willing to let me hack something together on their nervous system. Off to Craigslist...

It is realtime lighting, but I think the thing that looks weird is that it appears to be coming from the player's eyes, rather than from a handheld flashlight that would be somewhat down and to the side, casting light at more of an angle. Maybe the flashlight is mounted on a helmet? Or…
