DISPLAY: AOMWAY COMMANDER V1

As we said in the specification, this device Commander V1 has 854 x 480px WVGA display. This is a good display, which can show a picture, as in RF mode (2D or 3D).
Let’s look at the main ranges and frequencies that are displayed in the upper left corner when you are wearing glasses.
If the DVR mode is on, then the word “REC” is displayed in the upper right corner of the device.
As you can see, there is no information about the RSSD of the OSD, and it’s really sad.
The device has built-in screens, which offers a fairly sharp display, but I found that the sky and its shades are black and slightly better brightness than on the monitor screen.

To start recording the video, from the beginning you need to press the central right stick for 3 seconds, and again quickly press to turn on or off the video recording mode.
Let’s talk about the DVR menu. To enable this menu, you need to turn off the radio frequency mode. In this case, you must press the left center button for more than 3 seconds, and then press the right center button of the joystick for more than 3 seconds.
The interface of the Commander V1 menu is basic, and when extracting from the HMDVR / Everyone pro DVR, but there are 3 more options available:
  1. Play the recorded file;
  2. Format the microSD card;
  3. Select the recording mode.
Unfortunately, here is no HMDVR module of all menu settings.
Regardless of the source of the radio signal, the roofing felts in NTSC or PAL format, still, all the files will be recorded in VGA format (640 × 480 pixels) at a rate of 25 frames per second.

What does this mean? It’s simple; here first the video should decrease from D1 NTSC (720 × 480 pixels at 30 frames per second) to VGA (640 × 480 pixels at 25 frames per second).
The good side is that there is no trimming, so all OSD data with the GPS module will be displayed correctly. The bit rate of the Commander V1 is 5.7kbs.

CONCLUSION: AOMWAY COMMANDER V1

General view of the device AOMWAY Commander V1 positions as a relatively VR-helmet, and as a toy for adults. For the first acquaintance with the world of virtual reality, the product from AOMWAY will suit perfectly.
