The link in the earlier post from several days ago now leads to a sports article with a title of "Race Intruder Sought Suicide". I missed what ever the original post was. I don't check this thread daily. When I read the piece in the paper I thought it was pertinent to MVIS and when I saw the link at the paper's web site I thought others might be interested. The link I provided leads to an article in yesterday's Arizona Republic about IBM research. I thought the mention of miniaturization of display technologies, particularly a head mounted display to project an image of a computer screen would be of interest to this thread. The exact mechanism by which the image is generated is not clear in the article but apparently the image is reflected by a mirror into the eye to create the image. The photo in the paper, not reproduced in the link, shows something that looks to be about the size and weight of a telephone headpiece. Instead of a microphone at the end of the arm that swings around front, there is a clear plastic device at eye level that is presumably the source of the image. I gather the system is not capable of binocular projection but then binocular vision may not be that important in reading something off a screen. <<And exactly what is it in that article that brought you to the conclusion that it is a competitor's display that's mentioned?>> Potential consumer applications of MVIS display technology discussed on this thread in the past have included replacing the CRT and putting displays in cellular phones. Currently MVIS seems to be focusing on military/aviation applications but consumer applications abound and will follow.
