Difference of screenshots probably because you allready adjusted right-left balance. Set it to middle and make screenshots again.

The left picture shows up brighter than the right one but both displays are actually showing the same brightness to the eyes.  I must have taken the pictures at slightly different angles, thus causing the difference in brightness.

This is with firmware version 1.110.104:13.  The resolution was set to 640x480 in the pictures.  I've tried 800x600 and 1024x768 and they produce the same problem.

Look at the top left, where there are color gradients.  They are not smooth on the left picture while they show properly on the right one.

Right eye picture :

I noticed that if I manually set the glasses in stereo while looking at this Vista background picture, it freezes the pictures on both displays and the problem is even more noticeable.  The region where the colors gradients appear produce small dots on the left eye (a bit like dithering).  When the picture is frozen, you clearly see these dithering dots and when you don't freeze it, the dots are less visible because they are quickly changing and blured together.

This problem is annoying me to the point that I don't want to use my VR920.  It's too disturbing when colors that should be the same appear differently in each eye.  It's very noticeable when watching movies.  I hope that it can be fixed by Vuzix.

I'll be honest although the product is great the fact that I am having this problem and the fact that my eyes are wider that the glass lenses rendered the device not so attractive to me anymore and stopped using it. If vuzix ever releases a patch to this, I might consider picking it up again.

Thanks for the posts!

I have been noticing the same color disparity between the screens as well. I found that it is especially apparent in low light scenes (those were there are lots of shadows). I have noticed that it feels like the lenses are shaped and that each side of the lens produces a different effect as you approach it. On my left lens the left side darkens the image as you approach it, while the right side (closest to the nose) maintains the color but becomes blurry. The right lens darkens on the left side (closest to the nose) and maintains color but blurs as you approach the right side. I wonder if this is intentional, since I would think that one of the lenses should be reversed (for example, as you look toward the nose both lenses become blurry but maintain color since that is the area of overlap), or if they forgot to flip one around during manufacturing of some batches.

Do everyone else’s lenses react the same way?

*sorry for the white background...apparently the forum doesn't like copy paste (even out of notepad).

I stopped using this device because of all these issues, not counting the fact that there are not many good drivers for an 8800 card.

Hope this helps.

Experiment: Pull up an image (preferably darker then lighter). Now close your right eye and move the glasses slowly to the right, you should notice that the image becomes darker and darker as the alignment of the lens and eye change. Go back to center, now slowly move the glasses to the left, you should notice that the image gets blurrier but there is no loss of color.

Now try the same thing on the right eye, the results should be idential. However, intuitively shouldn't the results be opposite? That way the colors would align.

Just something interesting I noticed, it doesn't bother me enough to not use the glasses or try and send them in for inspection/repair.

not a pb of IPD: if you ROLL the glasses 180° the problem go

to the other eye clearly. Nothing to do with shifting the glasses a few millimeter left or right. Maybe a software pb (my conf:vista 64 +8800gts) or a alignment pb between the lcd and the lens.

I wonder what Todd think about this.
