Abstract

A head wearable display device, a method, and a system. The head wearable display device may include a visor portion implemented as a pupil-expanding waveguide, a processor, an image illumination source communicatively coupled to the processor and configured to output optical signals, an optical pathway, and column injectors implemented in and along the optical pathway. Each of the column injectors may be associated with a pixel column. Each of the column injectors may be configured to be in a pass-through state or a deflect state. When a given column injector is in the pass-through state, the given column injector may allow optical signals to pass through the given column injector. When a particular column injector is in the deflect state, the particular column injector may be configured to deflect the optical signals into the visor portion causing a column of pixels to display in the visor portion.
