+A '''microdisplay''' is a kind of [[display]] that is compact and has a high resolution. It can be about one inch wide. It is usually flat and built on technology like [[LCOS]] or [[OLED]]. It can be used in an [[augmented reality headset]].
+The resolution of microdisplays is often very high. A microdisplay can be used as the display source in a [[microlens-based light field display]] of a small size.
+Microdisplays can be used to make [[monocle]]s, including monocles that use [[light field]] methods. Microdisplays can be used for [[light field display]]s because microdisplays have a [[pixel pitch]] that is very small.
+Companies that provide microdisplays included [[eMagin]], bought by [[Samsung]].
