Abstract

Some aspects of the present application include a wearable, see-through display device. The device includes a source of video information and a micro-display configured to receive video information from the source of video information and to project light forming an image based on the video information. The device also includes a lens system comprising one or more lenses, the lens system configured to receive and collimate light from the micro-display and to propagate the light from the micro-display to an image guide and the image guide positioned to receive light from the lens system and direct the received light to a partial reflector. The device also includes a partial reflector configured to reflect the light received from the image guide out of the display device towards a place where an eye of a user wearing the see-through display device may be positioned.
