I'm sure I could find the cash to do it over time (not get top-end projectors, stuff like that) but I literally don't have the space for a triple projector setup. I pushed it with a 'normal' Surround monitor setup. ;)

You can actually scale down the whole thing. By moving the screen nearer to the seat, you can shrink the width and height tremendously without compromising on the wide view angle...have a look at this:

The above setup took just the table top of a decent sized work table. Edgeblending could become more critical as you can see the pixels more clearly.

Someone actually thought that I used a headtracker in my setup.

Here's a brighter video with some background lights to show that relative position of the screen and the surrounding.

Here are some new videos I uploaded that show the whole rig relative to my curved screen (albeit a little dark) and the edgeblending ability that is critical to my requirement of seamless gaming:

I have to add, this software works with DirectX applications like my games. It doesn't work on the Windows Desktop....hopefully one day they will come up with a version that works on everything in Windows....
