Virtual Barbershop

So neat it isn't even funny.

YOU MUST WEAR HEADPHONES FOR THIS TO WORK.

This uses something called "holophonic" technology, and it is really fun to work with.

The best thing to do would be shut off all lights, and close your eyes and listen.

Don't worry Master, it's nothing scary. It feels as if you were actually sitting there in the barber shop.

You could try to just sit on the chair and turn around, having the speakers behind you and near you with a good volume, that might work.

You need both speakers though.

the only way to get the full quality is with either surround headphones or a very good speaker system. Either way is fine. 

But yeah.. this thing was so realistic.. Especially the bag over the head part.. I literally thought I was going to suffocate lol.   When if first started, I didn't realize it was my headphones and I kept looking around for the person talking. It took a minute to realize it wasn't really happening.

Very good set up.  I'd like to see more of these please.

thats what I'd like to know. There's got to be more like that out there.
