           Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OFOPERATIONS

Results of operations

Revenues  in the second  quarter  and first six months of the fiscal  year ended
January  31, 2001  (Fiscal  2001) were  $3,203,000  and  $6,205,000  compared to
$2,114,000  and  $4,664,000 in the  comparable  periods of the fiscal year ended
January 31, 2000  (Fiscal  2000).  The  increases  of  $1,089,000  (52%) for the
quarter and  $1,541,000  (33%) for the six-month  period were due to higher dome
and ImmersaVision revenues.  ImmersaVision revenues were $808,000 and $1,389,000
in the first  quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2001,  compared to $286,000
and  $760,000  in  the  first   quarter  and  first  six  months   Fiscal  2000,
respectively. Dome revenues were $1,622,000 and $3,348,000 in the second quarter
and first six months of Fiscal 2001 compared to $1,015,000 and $2,351,000 in the
comparable  periods of Fiscal 2000,  an increase of $607,000  (60%) and $997,000
(42%) for the quarter and the six-month  period,  respectively.  The increase in
dome  revenues  was   attributable   to  higher  revenue  from  ride  simulation
attractions,  planetarium  domes,  and the sale of a special  theater  dome to a
major European  automobile  maker for use in a visitor center.  Otherwise,  dome
revenues  from  film  theaters  and  military  training  simulators   decreased.
Planetarium  revenues  were $773,000 and  $1,468,000  in the second  quarter and
first six months of Fiscal  2001  compared  to $813,000  and  $1,553,000  in the
comparable  periods of Fiscal  2000,  a decrease  of $40,000 and $85,000 for the
quarter and the  six-month  period,  respectively.  The decrease in  planetarium
revenues was  attributable  to lower  revenues  from  maintenance  and parts and
peripheral  equipment  previously  recorded as part of the  optical  planetarium
systems.  Much of the peripheral equipment sold with the new planetarium systems
has been enhanced and expanded for integration  into the  ImmersaVision  systems
and is now  recorded  as  part  of  ImmersaVision  sales.  Planetarium  revenues
attributable  to the sale of maintenance and parts were $285,000 and $598,000 in
the second  quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2001 compared to $330,000 and
$628,000 in the  comparable  periods of Fiscal 2000, a decrease of $45,000 (14%)
and $30,000 (5%),  respectively.  The decrease in maintenance and parts revenues
was due to the timing of performance on preventive maintenance agreements.

Revenues  are  expected to continue at the level of the first six months for the
remainder of Fiscal 2001 as work continues on the order backlog.  The backlog of
unearned  revenue as of July 31, 2000 was  approximately  $10,600,000,  of which
approximately  80% is  scheduled  to be earned over the next twelve  months.  In
addition,  the Company  has booked or is in  negotiation  to book  approximately
$2,800,000 of new orders,  most of which is expected to be completed  within the
next  twelve  months.  While  revenues  are  expected to continue at higher than
historical levels over the next year,  uncertainty in the timing and delivery of
new sales may cause revenue levels to fluctuate in interim periods.

Gross  margins  improved  to  31.2%  in each of the  second  quarter  and  first
six-month  periods of Fiscal 2001 compared to 29.6% and 29.3% in the  comparable
periods of Fiscal 2000. The gross margin  improvement  was  attributable  to the
higher  dome sales with  strong  margins  which  improved  from  volume  related
efficiencies.  Planetarium and ImmersaVision gross margins continued to lag dome
margins.  Selling  expenses  decreased  $9,000  (4%) in the second  quarter  and
increased $26,000 in the first six months of Fiscal 2001 compared to the


                                       9
<PAGE>

comparable  periods of Fiscal 2000.  The decrease for the quarter was due to the
timing of sales related travel. The increase for the six-month period was due to
staffing additions and organizational  changes.  Selling expenses in fiscal 2001
are  expected  to be at current or  increasing  levels as  marketing  efforts on
ImmersaVision continue to demand significant resource commitments.  Research and
development  expenses  increased  $82,000 (51%) and $118,000 (34%) in the second
quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2001 compared to the  comparable  periods
of Fiscal 2000.  The increase in research  and  development  expenses was due to
modifications  and  improvements of  ImmersaVision  products to fulfill customer
requirements,  the  continued  creation  of  proprietary  programming  tools for
software  content  development for  ImmersaVision,  and  improvements to optical
planetarium products.  Research and development efforts are expected to continue
at increasing  levels in future  periods.  General and  administrative  expenses
increased  $51,000 (23%) and $80,000  (19%) in the second  quarter and first six
months of Fiscal 2001  compared to the  comparable  periods of Fiscal 2000.  The
increase in general  and  administrative  expenses  was due  primarily  to costs
related to information system improvements and strategic planning.

Net interest  expense  amounted to $34,000 and $66,000 in the second quarter and
first six  months  of  Fiscal  2001  compared  to  $17,000  and  $37,000  in the
comparable  periods  of  Fiscal  2000.  The  increase  in  interest  expense  is
attributable  to new  capital  leases and higher use of the bank line of credit.
The $34,000 and  $66,000  reported in the first  quarter and first six months of
Fiscal 2001 consisted of $24,000 and $44,000 paid on bank debt  agreements  plus
$10,000 and $22,000 paid on capital lease  obligations.  The $17,000 and $37,000
reported in the first  quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2000  consisted of
$13,000 and $29,000 paid on bank debt agreements plus $5,000 and $11,000 paid on
capital lease obligations, offset by $1,000 and $3,000 of interest income earned
on cash  invested.  The  Company  continues  to pay no federal  income  taxes as
federal  taxable  income is  offset by the  utilization  of net  operating  loss
carryforwards.  The  provision  for state income  taxes  amounted to $15,000 and
$29,000 in the second  quarter and first six months of Fiscal  2001  compared to
$2,000 and $11,000 in the comparable  periods of Fiscal 2000. As a result of the
above,  the Company  reported  net income of $230,000 and $442,000 in the second
quarter and first six months of Fiscal 2001  compared to of $9,000 and  $144,000
for the comparable periods of Fiscal 2000.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by operating  activities  was $183,000 in the first six months
of Fiscal 2001, compared to $12,000 used in the first six months of Fiscal 2000.
The $183,000 of net cash provided by operating activities in first six months of
Fiscal 2001 was produced by adding  $259,000 of non-cash  charges to $442,000 of
net income and subtracting  $518,000 of cash used by changes in operating assets
and liabilities.  By way of comparison,  in the first six months of Fiscal 2000,
the $12,000 of net cash used by operating  activities  resulted from the effects
of $392,000 of cash used from changes in operating assets and liabilities  which
offset  $144,000 of net income and  $236,000 of non-cash  charges to net income.
The change in operating  assets from time to time is primarily  attributable  to
progress payment terms on particular customer contracts, and the Company expects
changes in  operating  assets from period to period to remain both  material and
variable.

The $183,000  provided by  operations in the first six months of Fiscal 2001 was
offset by $202,000  used by financing  activities  and $43,000 used by investing
activities. In addition to the $12,000 used by operations in first six months of
Fiscal 2000,  financing  activities used $162,000 and investing  activities used
$202,000.  The net result was a $62,000  decrease  in cash  balances  during the


                                       10
<PAGE>

first six months of Fiscal 2001  compared  to a decrease of $376,000  during the
first six months of Fiscal 2000.

Financing  activities  in the first six months of Fiscal 2001  consisted  of net
proceeds  of  $115,000  from the  revolving  credit  note  offset by payments of
$74,000 on capital leases and monthly  principal  payments on the bank term note
of  $84,000.  Financing  activities  in the  first six  months  of  Fiscal  2000
consisted of net payments of $75,000 on the revolving  credit note,  payments of
$41,000 on capital leases and monthly  principal  payments on the bank term note
of $86,000.

Total  debt at July 31,  2000 was  $1,159,000,  a decrease  of $43,000  from the
$1,202,000 at January 31, 2000. In summary,  the decrease resulted from $115,000
of net  proceeds on the  revolving  credit  note offset by $84,000 of  scheduled
payments  applied to term debt and $74,000 of payments  applied to capital lease
obligations.

Investing activities in the first six months of Fiscal 2001 consisted of $65,000
of various machinery and equipment  additions and the purchase of treasury stock
at a cost of $137,000.  The $162,000 invested in capital assets in the first six
months of Fiscal 2000  consisted of $94,000 in computer  software and $68,000 of
various machinery and equipment additions.

At July 31,  2000 there was a  $470,000  balance on the  revolving  credit  note
compared  to $355,000 at January 31,  2000.  This  resulted in unused  borrowing
capacity of $630,000 under the amended  $1,100,000  borrowing  limit at July 31,
2000  compared to $445,000  under the $800,000  limit at January 31, 2000.  Cash
balances of $45,000 provided  additional  liquidity at July 31, 2000 compared to
$107,000 at January 31, 2000. The next source of liquidity, accounts receivable,
increased to  $3,149,000  at July 31, 2000 compared to $2,173,000 at January 31,
2000. This resulted in a $1,099,000  increase in liquidity  available from cash,
borrowing capacity and accounts  receivable at July 31, 2000 compared to January
31,  2000.  Although  fluctuations  in the  progress  billings of  contracts  in
progress  pressured  liquidity  through  the  first six  months of Fiscal  2001,
contract funding  recovered as billings exceeded revenue recorded by $224,000 at
July 31, 2000  compared to the $54,000 at January 31, 2000.  The increase of the
revolving credit limit has provided some relief to the liquidity  pressures from
customer  contracts.  Liquidity  pressure is expected to continue as the payment
terms on many large contracts require  performance  milestones and, as expected,
fewer contracts are providing advance payments from customers.

The modified debt  agreements  combined  with current  assets and cash flow from
operations,  assuming reasonably  consistent revenue levels,  should provide the
Company with adequate liquidity for the foreseeable future.
