Design and applications of a high-resolution insert head-mounted-display
In this paper, a new Head Mounted Display (HMD) that provides a large field of view with a high-resolution insert is proposed and designed. Previously, this type of HMD has been designed using mechanical or sequential scanning devices, which are bulky and expensive. The proposed High-Resolution Insert HMD (HRI-HMD) is innovative and it uses only electronic devices that can be easily integrated with the optical components. The potential benefit of the HRI-HMD comes not only from its improved visual quality via a high-resolution insert but also from its increased human-computer interaction capability via eye tracking. The design principles and envisioned applications of the HRI-HMD are described, and the feasibility of the HRI-HMD is demonstrated by designing a prototype model.
