They’ve developed this “thing” which you wear on yer head called the "Full Face Helmet". What you see on the inside is a projection of any image/video onto a curved surface giving the illusion that you are wearing a big round “thing” on yer head. The image moves depending on the angle you tilt your head giving the added illusion that your neck is about to snap due to the weight.
You can check out the video of this product on WBS’s site.
Hmmm, I have just thought of a realistic scenario for this product. Toshiba probably want to target the family man who has wife n kids who cant watch ero anime at home. With this helmet, he does not have to worry anymore as he is the only one who can see what’s going on inside.
This time next week there will be billions of people lining the streets in Akihabara waiti...(more)

Man, that's wicked cool but I can find that to be way too problematic. Like people trying to drive and watch TV with that thing.

They should incorporate that into a VR videogame.

Would be funny when you play a VR game, and have the helmet collapse with your head in it as you are upside down =) That kind of heavy?

The problem is with this helmut on, he wont be able to know whats going on outside as well, imagine caught in the act with embarrasing behavior w/o even knowing others are looking.

Reminds me of that anouncer guy with the TV helmet from behemoth, from that anime Air Gear.

Interesting Danny... Maybe we should hit Toshiba up for some R&D money. ^_- I'm sure that poor woman is thinking, I get payed how much to work here!? ^o^ Silly questions yesterday... I'm never an automatic mode person either. Glad the websites are helpful. ^^

Ok, so it's an interesting approach but you gotta think, "Will I look weird puting this thng on? Is it worth looking like I came from Space? What am I hading that you can't see?" I think not. People who would buy it would be those who are looking at 'stuff' that can't find the privacy to do so. Anyone with this on, i will probably laugh when you're not looking, that is if you can see me in front of you.

Model the helmet after a Gundam head and I think they'll sell plenty.

It looks so stoopid and funny. You'll definitely get neck cramps after that.
