Abstract

An anamorphic eyepiece. In one implementation, the eyepiece is for use with a display where both the eyepiece and display are head-mounted, with the eyepiece projecting an image from the display into the user's eye. The display has high resolution in a horizontal direction, preferably at least 2000 pixels, but the image produced by the display is compressed in aspect ratio. The anamorphic eyepiece decompresses the aspect ratio.
