Carl Zeiss unveiled their Cinemizer head-mounted display some time back in 2008, which they wanted to revolutionize how you watch your movies on your iPod Touch. What seemed cool back then seemed odd now, with the dated hardware. However, Carl Zeiss isn’t very happy that their ‘revolutionizing’ product is coming of age so quickly, and has somehow updated their Cinemizer to follow current trend. Now how can you call your product new, when you’re missing the suffix ‘3D’?

The tiny screens that sit a fraction of an inch from your eyeballs have been upgraded to OLED wonders, which should be blazingly stunning enough for your eyes, at least. However, their mere resolution of 640 x 480 really does not do any help in pushing it forward to be called ‘updated’ while it’s still stuck at VGA level. The good news is that, it’s no longer Apple-centric, and will happily cope with ‘some’ other non-Apple devices.

Well, at least the new ‘cool’ look of the ‘glasses’ seemed almost justify for the €400 ($515) that you need to fork out. I guess it’s expensive to look like Scott.
