Article Summary

Wearable 3D Augmented Reality displays have taken a leap forward in viability with the announcement of Microvision's 7.6 Million Pixel Microdisplay unit that can be incorporated into eyeglasses, goggles or helmets to create a stereoscopic, 3-D effect.

These compact, high-resolution displays can further enhance the visual realism of the interactive experience to make the simulated environment more engaging.
