The Trout Mask Replica Head-Mounted Display
The Trout Mask Replica System is a sophisticated hardware/software combination that
allows the user to view the world through the eyes of a fish in a stream.
- The HMD provides a stereo, wide-angle, bi-directional monocular view
(known as the "trout window"), with full-jaw force feedback and
vibrational feedback.
- Companion software provides a complete stream simulation, including the
fishermen on the bank.
- System allows for fun games like "Steal The Expensive Lure", "Drop Off The
Line", and "Catch The Caddis Fly". We have even created our own "Become
Mr. Limpid" world.
- Software simulates complicated fluid dynamics like surface ripples,
rapids, variable-depth refraction and eddy currents.
