The VR-Vison system sold by Catalyst uses the same "frame doubling" type
technology as CrystalEyes, but works with almost any monitor, works
under Win'95 and NT, and requires no internal hardware or system
software modifications.  The entry level system sells for $295, and uses
exactly the same hardware as the more expensive configurations.
VR-Vision includes all of the software to format and display still
images without flicker.
