While these transparent OLEDs might not make practical heads-up displays, they are still a cool part for projects like a volumetric display. This requires, lightweight and distortion-free collimators and beam splitters, which are expensive and hard to make. For a wearable display to work, all the light beams from the display need to be focused into your eyeball by lenses and or reflectors, without distorting your view of everything beyond the lens. Contrary to what many people might think, the hard part of wearable displays is not in the display itself, but rather the optics. As explains in the video after the break, the human eye is physically incapable of focusing on any object at such a short distance. He put together a headband with integrated microcontroller that holds the transparent OLED over the user’s eye, but unfortunately, anything shown on the display ends up being more or less invisible to the wearer. To save you the inevitable disappointment that would result from such a build, took it upon himself to test out the idea, and show why transparent wearable displays are a harder than it looks. After seeing the cheap transparent OLED displays that have recently hit the market, you might have thought of using them as an affordable way to build your own wearable display. ![]()
