Optical MEMS for displays in portable systems
W.O. Davis, MicroVision, Inc., USA
Abstract:
This chapter discusses several optical microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) devices that are used as displays for portable wireless systems. Two direct-view MEMS-based displays are summarized; these seek to displace the incumbent liquid-crystal based displays that are widely employed in mobile devices. MEMS picoprojector displays are reviewed, including mirror array-based projection and laser beam scanning (LBS). The further application of MEMS-based LBS to head-up and eyewear displays is discussed.
