To date, we have exclusively used OLEDs from eMagin. There are many good folks at eMagin, and they have nice products, but given their well-documented delivery challenges and new designs made possible by flat-panel displays, they won't be our exclusive display supplier anymore.Where and when is it best to use OLED micro displays?
- Where physical space is limited, such as when building a simulated rifle scope
- When the contrast and response time of OLEDs are a must (that is, until OLED flat panels become widely available for goggle use)
- Where harsh environmental conditions - especially temperature - are required, such as in our ruggedized HMD for training
- Where high pixel density is required
- Where being able to purchase replacement parts for many years is important
- When low power consumption is critical
Where and when is it best to use flat panel displays?
- Where wide field of view is particularly important
- When it is important to have supplier diversity
- When cost is a major factor
Not married to one display technology or another, it is now possible to choose the best one for each new product.
