WEBINAR: Latest Advancements in Virtual Reality Display Optics and Quality
Virtual Reality (VR) is booming. Currently an estimated $22.4 billion market, it’s predicted to grow by 42% CAGR reaching more than $131 billion in revenue by 2029. In 2023, 10.8 million VR devices were sold.
Driving this explosive growth is VR’s effectiveness as an educational tool—from virtual elementary school field trips to medical training.
Since the pandemic, VR is also being used extensively in enterprise settings for remote collaboration, meetings, product design, and virtual events. Advancements in VR device design, optics, and display technology are helping to support adoption by enabling more comfortable and affordable headsets, better quality visuals, and smoother integration with sensors for gesture tracking.
In this webinar Radiant’s Director of Optics and Test Engineering will
- Review these trends and survey some of the applications driving VR market growth
- Explore current and emerging optical architectures such as pancake lenses, Alvarez, varifocal lenses
- Look at display technologies such as OLED and microLED and the visual quality challenges they present
- Discuss the latest approaches and methods for addressing VR display quality with the wide variety of FOVs, device form factors, and optics on the market
Attendees will learn:
- About the latest VR optics and how they work, their pros and cons
- How to perform effective VR display inspection to measure across the device FOV and capture accurate brightness and color as perceived by the human eye
- New methods of correcting distortion and measuring focus with accurate modulation transfer function (MTF) techniques
- Approaches for performing in-headset and dual-eye measurement to replicate the wearer’s eye positions
- How to measure and correct high-resolution VR displays made with emissive technologies such as OLED and microLED to remove defects and ensure uniformity
