Three monitor support

Post by Heyvern »

With 15 and 17 inch flat panels becomming more affordable, and flat panel monitors designed for games, I think it's time to consider . . .

THREE monitor support.

Some video cards can output to 3 monitors at one time (Matrox Parhelia). So with 3 flat panel monitors, I'd like to see Track IR scroll a 3D cockpit view accross all three monitors at the same time!

And communication should be directly opened between Track IR and monitor companies that make those nice 3 in 1 flat panel monitors. That's where 3 flat panel monitors are all molded into 1 unit with 1 stand. Those monitors should be designed and marketed toward GAMERS, and track IR could be made to work with those 3 panel monitors.

After all, just look at ARCADE flight sims and ARCADE car racing games. They all have 3 screens for a wider wrap-around view!

With smaller, lighter, flat panel monitors, the arcade can come HOME!

I LOVE it!

I am even thinking of having multiple trackIR systems so that it can hand off the tracking between them, but not sure if we will need that.
