headset gives you 360 Degree vision

LONDON: Eyes in the back of your head! French scientists allegation to have developed a headset that gives you a 360-degree field of vision. 

The headset captures images from all direction around the user, then transforms them into something the human vision routine can comprehend. 
The presence called FlyVIZ was designed by Jerome Ardouin and colleagues at the Grande Ecole d'Ingenieurs Paris-Laval in France, the New Scientist reported. 

The headset is at prototype stage: at 1.6 kilogrammes, it's a bit cumbersome to walk around with, and rest connected to a laptop for image-processing while it runs. 

It uses a video camera, mounted atop a helmet, along with specially shaped mirrors to capture the environment on every sides of the user, then displays it in real time on a modified 3D Viewer headset. 

The system takes about 15 minutes to gain used to, its creators allegation in a paper they presented at the Virtual Reality Software and Technology conference in Toronto, Canada. 

Once acclimatized, the user is competent to simulate around and interact fluidly with their environment. 

In a series of trials, users grabbed sticks that would have been outside their normal field of , dodged balls thrown from behind them, and infinite drove a car.

 
Despite the odd fresh perspective on the world, the device does not occaoccasion any nausea, motion sickness or visual fatigue, the team claimed. 
Even though FlyVIZ acquires and displays images in 2D, users yet had serviceable depth perception, which the researchers refer to wearers intuitively tracking intent motion and parallax in the image to compensate for a lack of typical binocular vision.
