Three-Five Systems Introduces Advanced Near-to-Eye Microdisplays Three-Five Systems, Inc.®, a leading supplier of display products, yesterday introduced the Brillian(TM) Z86D-3 SVGA microdisplay, the company's most advanced near-to-eye microdisplay product. The company acquired this award-winning microdisplay technology in the first quarter from Zight Corporation of Boulder, Co. Three-Five has quickly assimilated the knowledge and production expertise required to achieve this rapid product introduction with minimal additional capital equipment expenditures. The company now has the capability to perform the full front-end display assembly, back-end packaging and complete electrical and optical test at the company's ISO certified production facility in Tempe. Three-Five is currently sampling product and is taking orders for volume production next quarter. "The productization effort within Three-Five Systems of the Brillian D-3 display has been very rapid," said Rainer Kuhn, Three-Five Systems' Director of Sales and Marketing/Personal Display Systems. "The fact that the D-3 display utilizes off-the-shelf materials and processes enabled us to integrate this product into our manufacturing operation at a very rapid pace. Now, our customers can bring new products with microdisplay technology to market faster than ever before. In addition, we are one of the few ISO certified manufacturers of near-to-eye microdisplays -- guaranteeing consistent high quality for our customers." The new Brillian Z86D-3 delivers improved performance over previous generation displays. It now provides support for a microprocessor interface which lowers power consumption, and supports a wider operating temperature range enabling its use in rugged environments. In addition, the display's high fill factor delivers non-pixelated multimedia, moving video, computer video, still image or text content. Ideally suited for 2D and 3D full-motion video applications, the Brillian Z86D-3 can be used in monocular, binocular or stereo electro-optic designs. Intended uses for the Brillian D-3 include nightvision systems, wearable computing applications, video telescopes, microscopes, endoscopic surgery and gaming applications. It can be used in applications which utilize the display in an embedded manner such as electronic viewfinders or in tethered designs such as a head mounted displays. Three-Five's Brillian Z86D-3 is backward compatible with the former Zight products, such as the field sequential control and illumination control ASICs, which are also now available from Three-Five. The D-3 can easily be designed into current products that are based on previous versions of Zight's SVGA microdisplays, enabling existing customers to take advantage of the performance benefits without significant design changes. Three-Five Systems offers the OEM/ODM community a total chipset solution for each display, which includes driver ICs, illumination control circuitry, development kits and complete system reference designs enabling rapid product development and deployment.

About the Brillian(TM) Z86D-3 The Brillian Z86D-3 pixel architecture offers an industry-leading pixel fill factor of 93 percent, which results in very bright, non- pixelated, smooth images at a magnification as high as 150x. In addition, the display offers the highest available frame rate of 120 Hz, or 360 Hz RGB colors per second, eliminating the color break up and flicker typically exhibited by field sequential displays. The display is also designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions of -20 to +70 degrees centigrade. It delivers long lifetimes of nearly 1,000,000 hours mean time to failure (MTTF). The D-3 also offers enhanced mechanical features so that product designers are able to precisely position the display into the most challenging binocular or stereoscopic optical designs. About Brillian(TM) LCoS(TM) Microdisplays A microdisplay is a small display, about the size of a thumbnail, that when combined with an optics system has the unique advantage of being able to make the apparent size of the image viewed larger than the size of the actual display. The advantages of microdisplays include: extremely small size, light-weight, and the ability to hold up to 2.6 million pixels in less than one diagonal inch for high- definition or ultra-high resolution displays. Three-Five's microdisplay technology is a disruptive technology to the TV and display industry because it not only creates a much higher quality image, but it also has the lowest cost per pixel for any large screen display technology. Three-Five is pioneering efforts in the use of LCoS technology for microdisplays. Three-Five has developed a complete line of Brillian Microdisplays from SVGA, the resolution of the Internet, to WUXGA, for products that require high-definition or ultra-high resolution. The Brillian family of microdisplays addresses the market's need for high-information content displays in small, cost-effective packages. | ||

They have an interesting picture of an HMD on the near-eye product page. Looks like a fancy version of the X-Viewer. http://www.threefive.com/products_solutions/index.html -Kevin | ||
