Applications
There are three principal categories of applications for the VRD.
The first is the wearable "augmented reality" display. This display can be incorporated into eyeglasses, goggles or helmets. And the image can be superimposed without blocking the user's view, as in the example of the bomber pilot.
The second sort is the 3-D interactive display. This application is "fully immersive," the company says, creating a total simulation environment and, incidentally, a pretty good environment for a video-game and arcade application.
The third variety is the hand-held 2-D display, which could be integrated into the cell phone or pager, providing access to images from business networks, Internet, email, faxes, and the like with the fidelity, it is said, of a desk-top monitor.
