Abstract

A display device includes a plurality of modulatable light sources providing a one-dimensional array of display-elements, and a scanning unit, carried or worn by the user, which causes the user to perceive the array as a two-dimensional image. The scanning unit is movable with respect to the array while still allowing the user to view the array as a two-dimensional image.
