Abstract

The design of a wide field-of-view head-mounted display (HMD) is very challenging. Unfortunately, traditional design methods produce low-resolution imagery that is unacceptable for some tasks. One method of addressing this challenge is to optically tile several smaller field-of-view displays to form a single, wide field-of-view, high-resolution image. This paper will address design issues specific to optically tiled system including otpical performance, seam placement and binocular rivalry.
