Electronic paper could enable virtual reality with human-eye resolution

Shrinking conventional visual displays for use closer to the eye causes problems with colour mixing and requires a trade-off between resolution and brightness. An innovative technology called retina E-paper brings ultrahigh resolution to reflective displays, reaching the limits of human vision when scaled to pupil-sized screens. Submicrometre pixels that use reflected light overcome the trade-off between display resolution and brightness.

Abstract

Shrinking conventional visual displays for use closer to the eye causes problems with colour mixing and requires a trade-off between resolution and brightness. An innovative technology called retina E-paper brings ultrahigh resolution to reflective displays, reaching the limits of human vision when scaled to pupil-sized screens. Submicrometre pixels that use reflected light overcome the trade-off between display resolution and brightness.
