To a not-so-knowledgeable person like myself, this seems like a bubble. Is it so hard to wire up some displays, optics and gyros? 2 billion? What could you do in-house or with a new team with, say 20 million? Maybe it is so hard.

Thanks, that's a great response. Seems like higher refresh rates and better sensors could solve a lot.
Has everybody else except the few panel makers resigned on actually creating advances in display technologies? Seems theoretically OLED tech can go to 100,000 Hz.
