This isn't a pledge yet (the kit isn't out), but a place for planning what we do with the display(s) and thinking about things like 3d printing custom made-to-fit-your-face adaptors for the display(s).

Possible projects

• Welcome to Mars - With Curiosity due to touch down soon, wouldn't it be nice if you could walk around mars alongside it?
• The Horror - Film willing space members playing "Amnesia: The Dark Descent" in immersive VR. Stereoscopic drivers are available.
