Your theater, on the go
The world of HDTV, 100-inch viewing screens, 170-degree viewing angles and plasma, LCD and LCOS just got, well, smaller. The next generation of cool gadgets is a completely mobile video viewing system with greatly improved technical specifications and its name is the I-Theatre. Sitting on your nose like a pair of small glasses, the I-Theatre offers high-resolution (922,000 pixels) viewing all while promoting an on-the-go lifestyle in a compact AV unit that weighs only 2.1 ounces.
The i-Theater HR features a sleek, ergonomically comfortable and lightweight design with all necessary electronics and optics fully integrated into this compact, stylish, video-eyewear product. You can have your own private movie viewings and remote observation of Internet sites and other images.
It will connect to any RCA video source and works with Video iPods, VCRs, DVD players, cell phones and game consoles. A rechargeable battery, USB charger and all cables are included.
If you’re the type of consumer who is into all of the specifications and geek lingo, we’re here to serve. To wit:

The displays are aligned precisely to the optics and to each other for viewing comfort, and the package is designed to maintain alignment during use. Its low power consumption allows for long battery-powered viewing time.
