Abstract: A head mounted display with wide field of view (WFOV) is disclosed. A conventional small display is used in conjunction with a Beam Steering Mechanism (BSM) to dynamically steer the FOV of the displayed image at a very fast rate to provide an effectively WFOV for immersive visual experience. An electrically actuated switchable Steering Mechanism (SM) is provided within the display projection module that steers the projected image towards different portions of the lens at a fast rate. The steering can be either in one, two or three dimensions. The steering allows for the displayed image to be wider field of view (FOV) to the observer than conventionally projected images that are small fixed FOV. The SM is steered at a high rate so as to be indistinguishable to the human observer. The steering can be controlled in a gaze tracked dynamic, on-demand fashion so as to save power consumed by the display system.
