MicroOptical Products - Discontinued

MicroOptical's viewers are the smallest, lightest head-up displays available today. They accept standard VGA, NTSC, PAL, RS170 and RS232 signals and weigh about 1 ounce. They project the information where you need it most — right in front of you. The careful attention to ergonomics in MicroOptical's designs make the viewers the most comfortable and useful viewing systems available anywhere.

MicroOptical's patented optical system gives the user the impression of a free-floating monitor. This unique optical system is what allows the user to maintain natural vision and awareness of the environment. The viewers are plug and play, ergonomic, and attach easily to prescription or safety eyewear.


VGA APPLICATIONS

SV-6 PC Viewer

The SV-6 PC Viewer is the perfect solution for mobile computing offering enhanced colour depth of 18 bits (262,144 colours) with lightweight optics and packaging. It mounts to safety or conventional eyewear using a quick mount and dismount system. The SV-6 may also be used for left or right eye viewing and has a built-in focus mechanism. The pixel format is 640 columns by 480 rows. The SV-6 is compatible with most computers and instruments that provide a VGA signal at 60 Hz.

Additional features of the SV-6 include the ability to view higher resolution input on the 640x480 display. The SV-6 will accept an 800x600 and higher input and reformat the information to be displayed on the viewer without adding scroll bars. This is a critical feature when existing software will not conform to 640x480 resolution.
