Indeed that would be assume. Solves the how many monitor's do you need debate, no longer restricts you by either available space or location. Would save money on power, etc. Seems like it could be a win for both the developer and budget.

There's one significant catch, which is a limited ability to look around by moving your eyes rather than your head.
The screen spans your entire field of view. You can still look around with your eyes only. The only problem is the low resolution.
That's not the case: different headsets have different fields of view, and most, including the DK2, have a FOV that's considerably narrower than the Sensics dSight's. Likely the dSight doesn't cover the full range of eye movement either.
