Sony Working On Visor-Like Headset For TV-Free 3D
Sony is working on a visor-like 3D display currently nicknamed "Headman" that will allow the user to play games in 3D without a TV.
Speaking at CES in Vegas last night, the company's executive deputy president Hiroshi Yoshioka admitted he's been using the device to play Gran Turismo 5. "Nobody - not even my wife - interrupted me, so I could get the highest score," he said.
Sony has not released any details regarding release date or price. All we know is the visor contains two small displays (one for each eye) and built-in headphones.
