An electron beam display is an electronic visual display that uses a cathode ray tube.

An electron beam display is in every TV that is small and fat.

It can be used to make a multifocal display by pairing it with a fast-moving mylar sheet.[1]

Small EBDs

Electron beam displays were used in the first computer-driven head mounted display, which was built by Ivan Sutherland.

EBDs were used by Kaiser in head-mounted display.

Manufacturing

It requires a glass tube that has a phosphor and has a vacuum pulled on it. It requires an electron gun.

It is made of two main components: a large glass bulb, and an electron gun.[2]
