Retinal projection for AR

Leti has developed a retinal-projection concept for augmented reality (AR) uses based on a combination of integrated optics and holography. The lens-free optical system claims to overcome the limitations of existing AR glasses, such as limited field-of-view and bulky optical systems.  TVs and smartphones that project digital images emit light all around them, as quasi-isotropic sources. ...
