Abstract
A planar substrate including a bundle of optical fibers extending from the first major surface to the second major surface and defining a mounting area on the first surface with a two-dimensional array of light emitting devices affixed thereto as an image generator. Real images are transmitted through the bundle to the appear as a real image at the second surface. A single fold optical magnifier including a plurality of optical elements having an aspheric field flattening light inlet positioned adjacent the second surface to receive the real image from the second surface of the substrate.
