Abstract

A headset includes a display assembly. The display assembly has a primary portion and a peripheral portion. The primary portion of the display assembly is configured to emit a first portion of image light, and has a first field of view (FOV). The peripheral portion of the display assembly is configured to emit a second portion of the image light over a second FOV, and the peripheral portion is canted relative to the primary portion. The emitted first portion of image light and the emitted second portion of image light create a composite FOV from the perspective of an eyebox, and a seam between the first FOV and the second FOV is located in a peripheral region of the composite FOV.
