What Does Microdisplay Mean?
A microdisplay is a display that has a very small screen. The screen size of microdisplays is usually less than two inches diagonal. This type of tiny electronic display system was introduced commercially in the late 1990s. The most common applications of microdisplays include rear-projection TVs and head-mounted displays. Microdisplays may be reflective or transmissive depending upon the way light is allowed to pass through the display unit.
Techopedia Explains Microdisplay
Microdisplays are miniaturized display units with screen sizes and resolution in the micro levels. Their small size enables them to be used in a wide variety of applications that require a screen that takes up small space, like head-mounted displays and digital cameras. They are also widely used in rear-projection TVs and data projectors. Sometimes, more than one microdisplay may be used in head-mounted displays to provide better viewing angle and resolution.
