Introduction How we perceive image VRD Technology Overview Safety Analysis Advantages Applications Comparison Disadvantages
Introduction
There are so many display technologies Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Light Emitting Diode (LED) Display Virtual Retinal Display (VRD)
System Description Video Source Control and Drive Electronics Light Source Scanner Assembly Pupil Expander Viewing Optics VRD with Eye Tracking
System Description
Control and Drive Electronics: Processing of input video signal. Generation of control Signals for the acoust optical modulators. Synchronization of the vertical and horizontal scanner. Overall system timing.
Vertical Scanner
Galvanometer with a second mirror (60 Hz).
System Description
Viewing Optics
Exit pupils Photo detector Contain special assembly for occluded or augmented vision
Safety Analysis
Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE)
The level of exposure or irradiance which can be thought of as the theoretical border between safe and potentially harmful. The output power of VRD is in the range of [100-300] nano watt. Worst case analysis is performed to check the safety bounds. ANSI Z136.1 (8 hour continuous exposure, sweep time for each pixel= 40 nano sec, frequency=60 Hz)

Advantages
Color range: High saturated pure colors Luminance and Viewing Modes (60nW ~300nW) See through mode (Augmented mode) Occluded mode. Contrast Ratio: Power Consumption: Cost:
Good - 13,000ft Only with sequential Poor- backlit dependent With 1/2 monochrome resolution 2-color only with 1/2 resolution With 1/3 resolution No

Disadvantages
There is no protection against radiation It can assist to the military industry, it will still be a technology used by humans against humanity and therefore may do more harm then good. The image sent into the eye will surely interfere with the reality objects and can be distract the user when his attention is most needed.
