Eingebunden in einem "Worlldgenerator System" mit einem "Fliegenden Teppich" konnten Anwender völlig losgelöst von Tastatur und Maus durch virtuelle Welten fliegen und interagieren.

The Forte Technologies VFX1 HEADGEAR Virtual Reality System is the first consumer virtual reality product that is truly "immersive" - that is, it comes close to fully enveloping your mind and body in the virtual experience.
The VFX1 comes complete with high fidelity-3D capable AKG stereo speakers, Cyberpuck controller, 2 high contrast full colour LCDs, patented 3D VOS headtracking, flip-up SmartVisor™ and the best looks of any HMD on the market. The VFX1 is compatible with most of today's popular games and other applications and has support under DOS and compatibility with Windows 95 using Forte's VFX1/Cyberpuck DirectInput drivers.
For trivia buffs - the VFX1 was featured in the NikeTM Virtual Tennis advertisement with Andre Agassi and in the Lone Gunman episode of the X-FilesTM.
3D Stereoscopic Imaging 3D VOS Head Tracker High Fidelity Stereo Headphones 3D Stereo Flip-up SmartVisor Ergonomic Design Comset Microphone Cyberpuck Controller VR Mouse VFX1 Interface Protocol Card (VIP)
Comset Microphone The VFX1 Headgear system has a built-in Comset condenser microphone located in the SmartVisor. This allows for hands-free communication with other gamers, including both network and on-line programs and games. The microphone is also suited for speech recognition applications.
VR Mouse VR MOUSE is a special driver program used to support the VFX1 HEADGEAR system in non-native applications. VR MOUSE simulates mouse and keystroke actions for applications that don't support the VFX1 HEADGEAR system directly. It translates headset movements, Cyberpuck motions, and button actions into simulated mouse and keyboard commands, making the VFX1 HEADGEAR backward-compatible with games already released.
DirectInput Drivers The latest VFX1 drivers allow the VFX1 Headgear and Cyberpuck to be setup as joysticks under Win95 and 98. Any program under Win95/98 that supports DirectInput is now supported including games like Quake II and Heavy Gear.
Software included with the VFX1 Headgear: Heretic Mech Warrior 2 Zephyr Rise of the Triad Descent: Destination Saturn Flight Unlimited Special Edition DOOM Wings of Glory Darker Super Karts Magic Carpet America On-Line Quarantine Locus Virtek 3D-Ware Virtual World Supports almost every first-person perspective game! There are over 100 games and applications that support the headgear. The latest games can be played with the VFX1 including Quake II, Quake, Jedi Knight, Blood, Heavy Gear, Duke Nukem 3D, Redneck Rampage, EF2000 Evolution, Terminator : SkyNet, Comanche 3 and many more.
