I have some students working on a realtime visual impairment
simulator for Windows 2000/XP. There is a very good beta
version available at:

http://slappy.cs.uiuc.edu/cs492/Group2/vis/index.php

We are looking for feedback on the quality of the simulations
and new features.

Please give it a try and let us know what you think.
