The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

I seen this wearable display awhile ago but the idea of using it for a Smartgun rig just struck me

Oh, you mean one of these - http://forum.alienslegacy.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=15587 :D

I've got a version 1. Short story: it's arse. Brilliant idea let down by the fact that it's not fully HDMI compliant (or something like that), it's very fussy about the input signal you use. I got it working with my phone so I may go back to trying to make it usable one day.

Version 2 is meant to be fully HDMI compliant ... I almost talked myself into getting one. Decided that wasn't a good idea (but mostly due to the disappointment of version 1).

Man, I totally forgot about that thread!

Anyway it would be cool to see it work with like a bullet action cam on the smartgun

Interesting, thank you.
I *think* version 1 actually only handle 720p but still looks to be worth a look about those sites.
