Own one of the most coveted items in VR history! A Collector's Poster of the first fully immersive headset, and a personal 90 minute conversation with Dr. Tom Furness.
Forty years ago, Dr. Tom Furness led the USAF team that developed the first fully immersive wide field-of-view 3D VR display system termed the Visual Coupled Airborne Systems Simulator (VCASS). He used this as a demonstrator for the Super Cockpit project…the cockpit that pilot wears. The VCASS became the world’s first glimpse into the Metaverse and was featured on network television and other media outlets during 1985-1989. It was a culmination of Dr. Furness’ early work in virtual and augmented reality that began in 1966.
