Out of eMagin Corporation. These displays are going into the leadtek x-eye and Daeyang hmd's. http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/040518/185506_1.html eMagin Wins Key Patent for 3D OLED Device Tuesday May 18, 8:18 am ET Built-In Stereovision Provides Realistic 3D Virtual Imaging HOPEWELL JUNCTION, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2004--eMagin Corporation (AMEX:EMA - News) has received notification from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office of patent issuance for the invention of its 3D OLED device, U.S. Patent No. 10,017,769, "Three dimensional display emulation method and system." The patent describes a stereoscopic display device incorporating a pair of OLED microdisplays in a near-eye display. The device processes an emulation video signal providing alternate frames of left and right video data with an "enable" signal provided to update data with corresponding frame data of the emulation signal. This patent provides for the unique method of generating highly realistic 3D which is built into eMagin SVGA-3D microdisplay. Combined with eMagin's top-emitting, active matrix OLED devices and unique IC architecture, which stores color and graphics data under each pixel, this patented 3D method provides rapid updated 3D with each eye receiving a flicker-free, non-shuttered image. "This 3D imaging capability remains realistic regardless of head movement or head position relative to a screen, unlike shutter glasses or 3D liquid crystal display computer screens," said Susan Jones, Executive Vice President, eMagin Corporation. "Since the images are generated at each eye, regardless of head position, we can combine the displays with head tracking to provide an ability to look around 3D objects or to move into virtual environments with available software." eMagin's SVGA-3D OLED microdisplay is the only display with such 3D capability built directly into the display itself. According to Jones, the SVGA-3D display and other future displays using eMagin's 3D technology are targeted at "opening 3D virtual imaging to a range of applications, from visualization and training to gaming." 3D imaging is also important in CAD visual simulation and virtual reality applications such as telepresence, camera viewfinders, handheld phones with large virtual screens, and head mounted wearable computers. eMagin will demonstrate headsets using this combination of 3D and head-tracking capability at the Society for Information Display meeting in Seattle, Washington May 23-25. | ||

I have information that U.S. Patent No. 10,017,769,( "Three dimensional display emulation method and system.") does not exist. It may be patent pending process. 2 weeks ago I asked "Imagine"(http://www.emagin.com/) to comment situation, but still no reply. | ||

Here's the original patent application. United States Patent Application 20030080964 Kind Code A1 Prache, Olivier F. May 1, 2003 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Three dimensional display emulation method and system Abstract A stereoscopic display device includes a pair of OLED microdisplays in a Head Mounted Display. An emulation video signal is provided to the display device. The emulation video signal includes alternating frames of left and right video data. An enable signal is provided to the left and right displays to control when image data in the display is updated so as to update data with corresponding frame data of the emulation signal. The updating of data in the combined display is at the standard rate while the updating of data in each display is at half the standard rate. http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PG01&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=%2220030080964%22.PGNR.&OS=DN/20030080964&RS=DN/20030080964 | ||

I cannot believe people can come up with stupid patents like this. At it stands, it's either very limited (limited to OLED), difficult to defend(many companies already have page flipping HMD on the market since many years ago), or easily worked around. | ||

IMHO it's either for marketing, for later leverage threatening competitors with lawsuits, or both. My view is that the entire patent system is broken, and cannot be easily fixed. | ||
