Link Foundation Modeling, Simulation and Training Fellowship Reports

The year of 2016 was proclaimed by many to be the year of virtual/augmented reality [Forbes]. The public attention was captured by the idea of wearable and immersive devices that can be used for communication, training, simulation and much more. However, the realization of such AR/VR displays has been staggered due to limitation of the optical/light engine of those devices. Furthermore, head-worn displays are only one example of a new generation of optical systems that require non-traditional technologies to achieve high optical performance, in a compact and light form factor. The development of these technologies requires a new set of …
