Twenty-four active matrix OLED microdisplays from eMagin Corporation (AMEX:EMA), a leader in personal display systems and technologies, are core to Sensics' new panoramic virtual reality (VR) display system. The piSight (TM) seamlessly tiles 12 microdisplays for each eye with a unique optical system to provide a complete and unprecedented panoramic virtual reality display with 150 degrees field of view and an effective resolution of 2200 x 1200 pixels per eye. "Until now, the single factor inhibiting broader adoption of VR has been the technical limitations of existing display systems," said Larry Brown, president, Sensics. "eMagin's emissive OLED microdisplays were the most practical design choice for us because of their size, weight, gamut, brightness, and contrast. Partnering with eMagin has allowed us to overcome traditional VR limitations and launch a truly breakthrough product." The lightweight piSight includes an integrated six-degree motion tracker for a fully-immersive VR experience. The system is controlled by a high-performance image generator cluster and aims at numerous applications including industrial design, training and simulation, visual analytics and more. The piSight system further includes an interactive 3D viewer that supports models created by most commercial CAD packages, and allows for easy porting of existing applications so that they can take full advantage of its unique characteristics. "Sensics sets a new standard for VR with the piSight. Its combination of unique optical design and overall system integration delivers the high-end VR experience that many have sought for a long time," said Susan Jones, executive vice president, eMagin Corporation. "This system provides professionals with unprecedented freedom of movement and flexibility while delivering very high resolution for important image detail."
