Sega VR
Console Information

The Sega VR is a virtual reality game system that
is mounted on the head to immerse the player in a video game environment.
Sega and Ideo worked together on the unit. Ideo was responsible
for the industrial design while Sega developed the mechanical and
electronic design. The system was made up of two LCD screens for
the video display and headphones for the sound. The internal sensor
could sense the player's movements and display movement accordingly
as if the player was really in the virtual world.
Working prototypes of the Sega VR were made, but due
to safety concerns, it was never sold. The immersion was so realistic
that Sega feared children might run while using the headset and
injure themselves.
