What's the state of "VR goggles" these days?

[Yeem]

I did some googling, but could only find old ugly goggles with pitiful resolutions.

Hasn't this technology matured at all since around 2000?

I'd like to have a pair, preferably with built in 3d (which should be easy to do), with large FOV and high resolution. But I'm guessing no such product exists. :\

So no word on VR goggles?

Come on AT community! You can do better than this! I know you can!

vr goggles wont be widely sought until after this whole 3d tv/monitor bubble bursts.

3d vr goggles are a 100 times better than the current active filtering glasses + 120hz displays now available, but no one is pursuing it because it is a niche application.

once transparent oleds and realtime augmented reality cameras software become common, the concept of vr should come back. WiDi and oled low power requirements should eliminate the clunky wires of an nvidia3d type solution.
