Solid Eye
Cardboard stereo attachment for PSP game: Metal Gear Acid 2.
gamespot review excerpt:
At TGS, Konami has also unveiled a rather interesting new feature for Acid 2--and hopefully other upcoming PSP games as well. Nojiri showed us what's being called the "Solid Eye" system, which is a cardboard contraption that fits over the PSP unit and provides a set of stereoscopic goggles that will let you play a game on the system in true 3D. We got to see a version of Metal Gear Solid 3's intro movie playing in 3D with the Solid Eye, and we have to say the effect is extremely convincing. Throughout Acid 2, you'll be able to unlock movies from MGS3 and then play them back in 3D--and of course, you'll be able to play the main game this way as well. Nojiri commented that you may want to play Acid 2 in 3D only in the privacy of your home, since people might look at you a little funny if you whip the goggles out in public. But hey, if you don't fear being ridiculed by your peers, we'd say the 3D effect looks good enough to be worth the derision.
I imagine you can create your own stereo content.

Wow - not just stereo, but made out of cardboard, too - who could ask for more?
Now just strap it to your head & put a tracker on it and you're good to go.
