Alienware shows off 2,880 x 900 curved monitor
Could peripheral vision simulation be the successor to widescreen gaming?
No matter how big your widescreen monitor is, you’re always going to end up seeing something mundane like your Mum’s mittens out of the corner of your eye, but this new ‘peripheral vision’ screen from Alienware could put a stop to that and let you completely immerse yourself in games.
Alienware has just demonstrated the screen at CES (consumer electronics show), and Engadget reports that it will be available in the second half of this year. The site claims that the screen will have a resolution of 2,880 x 900, which ‘mimics peripheral vision,’ and it’s based on DLP (digital light processing) technology. However, the site did say that 'three faint vertical dividing lines appeared to indicate four sub-panels making up this screen.'
Alienware was unable give us any more concrete details about the screen, other than the fact that the model on display at CES is just a prototype. Nevertheless, it's an interesting idea. Could this replace widescreen gaming? Let us know if you'd be interested in such a screen.
