RE: Emagin SVGA+ OLED z800 HACKING

From Wear-Hard Mailing list Archive (WH) Maintained by R. Paul McCarty

While no one has really done it, I believe it would be more than trivial.  

The screens in the Z800 are the SVGA-3D and not the SVGA+. I don't know how
dependant the electronics are on "seeing" both screens in order to display
an image.

Also, I am unsure if there are 2 driver boards or just 1 in the HMD.  If
there is just 1, it is mighty big to be covert.
