According to the company, “The AV920-C will connect to Xbox360, PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii and others to provide an immersive experience and a 62 inch viewing screen for single and multiplayer video games”
Features Of New iWear AV920-C:
* Advanced Video Frame Buffers, allowing for up to four 62 inch virtual screens
* iWear 3D enabled for automatic 2D/3D control; no buttons required
* Twin high-resolution 640×480 (920,000 pixels) LCD displays
* AccuTilt viewer pivots up to 15 degrees for comfortable viewing angle
* Can be worn with or without prescription eyeglasses

“The AV920-C adds a new dimension to multiplayer games. Instead of viewing all four players on the one screen, the AV920-C allows users to select their half or quadrant of the display screen and view it blown on their own personal 62 inch screen,” said Paul Travers, Vuzix’s CEO. “With the ability to daisy chain the AV920-C’s together, up to four players can game without distraction or fear that an opponent can view their screen. This will change how local or inhome multiplayer games are played.”
LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. IS THIS ONE OF YOUR DREAM GADGETs? It's certainly one of mine, but we will see how it performs when it actually out for the consumers like us to test drive!!!
The new Vuzix iWear AV920-C personal video display is expected to be available later this month but no words on its price yet.
I know the article is not about art but I thought it is some how related to most of what artists nowadays do (Movies, videogames, media, comisc etc. that's what we all in for so...it's good to keep up with the technology.) :)

As for posting something like this on a art blog, I think technology can be an art-form on it self. You might wane look on Google for "PC case mod" also if you don't have anything to do. Used to do some stuff like that.
As for a gadget I would really want, it would definitely be a selective hearing device. Something you could program to filter out certain noise or more specifically, certain people. :]
