Abstract

The Advanced Flat Panel program is developing high resolution color head mounted display systems for medical and low power applications. The first phase of the program has developed a stereoscopic head-mounted display for arthroscopic and endoscopic surgical applications using high resolution color AMLCDs and 1280 by 1024 spatially colored active matrix electroluminescent image sources. The next phase of the program will target low power color HMD applications with sequentially colored 1280 by 1024 AMEL devices and conclude with the demonstration of a 2560 by 2048 flat panel HMD. The medical HMD design and preliminary user evaluation of the system are discussed here along with a review of the spatially colored AMEL performance and a comparison of system architectures of the three different high resolution color displays that are being demonstrated on this program.
