Wayland-based Compositor With An Oculus Rift
"Developed as part of a university master thesis is this "truly 3D" windowing system environment. The 3D desktop was developed as a Qt Wayland compositor and output to an Oculus Rift display and then controlled using a high-precision Razer mouse. Overall, it's interesting research for bringing 2D windows into a 3D workspace using Wayland and the Oculus Rift. The code is hosted as the Motorcar Compositor. A video demonstration is on YouTube." -- source: http://tech.slashdot.org/story/14/06/19/139211 Bit wobbly, in my opinion...

Cheers, Peter On behalf of Mark Jones.
That's really cool. It only appears wobbly to people not wearing the Oculus Rift. If you were wearing the VR set everything would stay fixed in space as your head moves. Mark Jones
