Kopin, one that’s not only interesting but potentially

extremely pertinent to next generation VR hardware.

Seeing is believing here, and I quite literally could not see

anything resembling aliasing on the display even with a 10x

loupe to try and look more closely at the display

The Technology That May Drive The Next Generation of

Phones and Mobile Devices…the most advanced display I

saw came from Kopin, which showed a 1-inch OLED panel with

a 2048 by 2048 resolution and a 120 Hz frame rate

2048×2048 and a fast 120 Hz frame rate - firsts for the VR

industry and will raise the bar on performance… Latency is

also an astoundingly low 10 microseconds

Kopin Debuts Lightning OLED Microdisplay With 2k x 2k

Resolution for Mobile VR New High-Speed 4 Million Pixel

Display Wins CES Innovation Award for Mobile Virtual

Reality.
