as alternatives to the SR80, we can recommend

nVisor SX 120 (has nice wide FOV of 120 degrees and stereo 1280x1024 resolution)

Wide5 from Fakespace Labs (with 170 degrees field of view, but 'only' stereo 800x1200 resolution per eye)

Sensics piSight with up to 180 degrees field of view and high resolution everywhere. it's a multi-lens setup, so the tradeoff here is dark/fuzzy lines between the lenses, which are more or less pronounced, depending how well you can fit the unit on your head and adjust, and how much you are moving (when the HMD moves on you head, the lines get more visible). despite it's trade-offs, this HMD is currently the only option if you need high resolution in the outer periphery.

all above HMDs can be ordered thru WorldViz for the same price as you get them from the manufacturers. we do quality control and adjustements before sending them out to customers, as well as integration work for integration with tracker etc.

have fun!
