Vision Products, LLC, a leader in head/helmet mounted displays (HMDs) for military training & simulation, ground, and aviation applications, developed the world’s first zero distortion freeform prism eyepiece for augmented reality systems. With its very large 64-degree diagonal field of view, a 2k x 2k resolution, and a 120 Hz update rate, this eyepiece sets the bar for augmented reality systems that must deliver the ultimate in performance. Using a high-performance optical polymer means the display won’t shatter like glass waveguide displays do, and the freeform prism architecture provides bright, high contrast imagery with none of the diffraction effects common in waveguide eyepieces. The minimum peripheral obscuration frameless design means users will see the real world around the side of the eyepiece with no obscurations.

“Although freeform prism eyepieces provide better image quality than waveguides, there has always been the issue of a small amount of edge distortion," says Dr. Mike Browne, Vision Products’ President. "Customers can now have both high-performance imagery AND zero distortion in a wide field of view eyepiece.”

Vision Products’ zero distortion eyepiece will have its first demonstration at the Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference (I/ITSEC), the world's largest modeling, simulation, and training event. The I/ITSEC 2023 exhibition runs from November 27 through November 30, 2023, and will be held in the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC), located at 9800 International Blvd, Orlando, Florida. Vision Products can be found in #628.
