Publication Open Access Scanning fiber microdisplay: design, implementation, and comparison to MEMS mirror-based scanning displays(Optical Society of America (OSA), 2018) Ferhanoğu, Onur; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; Khayatzadeh, Ramin; Çivitçi, Fehmi; Ürey, Hakan; Faculty Member; College of Engineering; N/A; N/A; 8579In this study, we propose a compact, lightweight scanning fiber microdisplay towards virtual and augmented reality applications. Our design that is tailored as a head-worn-display simply consists of a four-quadrant piezoelectric tube actuator through which a fiber optics cable is extended and actuated, and a reflective (or semi-reflective) ellipsoidal surface that relays the moving tip of the fiber onto the viewer's retina. The proposed display, offers significant advantages in terms of architectural simplicity, form-factor, fabrication complexity and cost over other fiber scanner and MEMS mirror counterparts towards practical realization. We demonstrate the display of various patterns with similar to VGA resolution and further provide analytical formulas for mechanical and optical constraints to compare the performance of the proposed scanning fiber microdisplay with that of MEMS mirror-based microdisplays. Also we discuss the road steps towards improving the performance of the proposed scanning fiber microdisplay to high-definition video formats (such as HD1440), which is beyond what has been achieved by MEMS mirror based laser scanning displays.
