Virtual Retinal Display

I plan on first adding information on the virtual retinal display. I will add that the product that is being developed at the Human Interface Technology Laboratory (HIT Lab) was developed by Dr. Thomas A. Furness III. The article has the company that is working on it but not the name of the scientist who started it. I will also add that the method results in images that are bright, high contrast and high resolution. The current article slightly explains the process about the display being scanned into the retina but really goes into no further detail about how it works. To go into further detail about the virtual retinal display I will add VRD is a safe new display technology. The power levels recorded from the system are several orders below the power levels prescribed by the American National Standard. The VRD readily creates images that can be easily seen in ambient roomlight and it can create images that can be seen in ambient daylight. The combination of high brightness and contrast and high resolution make the VRD an ideal candidate for use in a surgical display. Further, tests show strong potential for the VRD to be a display technology for patients with low vision. (word count 206) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10180549
