Is Microvision's technology only capable of scanning from a single point source?

Humble question, Russell, who said VRD is a one eyed one patent bandit?

Apples and oranges.

The claim recited by Zeev (out of the hundreds to which Microvision holds rights) highlights one way that a scanned display can provide an improved image perception over a matrix addressed display (e.g., LCD, FED, or CRT). In a matrix addressed display, controlling apparent depth of each pixel involves separately controlling hundreds, thousands or millions of optical paths simultaneously. Even assuming this could be done at frame rates, the apparatus would probably be cost prohibitive. In a scanned display, the pixels are generated sequentially and a much simpler structure (see the patent) can independently define many different optical paths (apparent depths). This means that a single eye scanned display can provide depth cues in a reasonable manner.

And this claim can also apply to a binocular system.

One - patent.
Two - eyes.
Three - mvis.com

Cheers,

Svejk
