Abstract

A near-eye display (NED) comprises an electronic display, an optical assembly, a scanning assembly, and a controller. The controller generates display instructions based in part on content. The display instructions describe a resolution within an adjustable range of resolutions and a frame rate within adjustable range of frame rates. The electronic display emits a plurality of light rays at the frame rate based on the display instructions. The scanning assembly shifts a direction of at least one of the plurality of light rays in accordance with the display instructions. The optical assembly controls a field of view at an eye box and directs the plurality of light rays including the at least one shifted light ray toward the eye box. The plurality of light rays form a virtual display that displays the content at the resolution and the frame rate.
