Just a little word on the technology, I agree this is very solid technology, the VRD optical engine will revolutionize many existing applications and create many new applications. The most powerful aspect of this technology is the fact that it is not only an output device but an INPUT device. In the first applications such as the helmet mounted displays the immediate benefit is the elimination of a separate camera and tracking system that is used to track the movement of the eye. This is powerful, reduced systems mean less complexity and less weight, especially when the pilot has to eject. But the application that really has me excited is laser projection. it was mentioned that it is possible to project on non linear surfaces (I.E windshields, human body, aircraft structure.......) because the system has input capabilities I can envision a process whereby once every 10 frames a test grid pattern is flashed on the projection surface. an error correction signal could be generated that would correct any projection error. this same idea could also be applied to the helmet display and the cellular phone application, once the eye enters a zone of acquisition , I cannot see any reason why the VRD system could'nt track the eye and adjust the point of focus reducing parralex error and keeping the eye constantly on target with the scanner. This is very powerful and is the basic difference between this system and any other display system. In my opinion this is a shoo-in for all military applications( land warrior 2000, helmet mounted displays, tank aiming systems.....) How bout that I just talked myself in to another couple thousand shares
