Claim Text:
1. A personal display projector configured for positioning in proximity to a user's eyeball, comprising: a curved display layer formed by a flexible polymer substrate and an array of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) embedded into or attached to the flexible polymer substrate, the array of OLEDs defining an array of pixels having a display curvature; a curved micro lens array having a curvature matching the display curvature and positioned relative to the display layer so that the micro lens array is positioned between the display layer and the user's eyeball, the display layer configured to illuminate the micro lens array with image light rays, the micro lens array configured to collimate or quasi collimate the image light rays so as to represent an image in a far field relative to the eyeball, allowing the user's eyeball to focus on the image; and a rigid substrate having a back side relative to the eyeball, said back side having a back side curved surface defining said display curvature, the curved display layer attached to the back side curved surface of the substrate, the substrate having a front curved surface facing the eyeball and defining said curvature of the micro lens array, and the micro lens array is disposed or formed on the front curved surface of the substrate; and wherein the display projector is configured to provide a wide horizontal field of view greater than 70 degrees for the user's eyeball.
