Abstract
We present novel optics and head-mounted display (HMD) prototypes, which have the widest reported field-of-view (FOV), and which can cover the full human FOV or even beyond. They are based on lenses and screens which are curved around the eyes. While this is still work-in-progress, the HMD prototypes and user tests suggest a feasible approach to significantly expand the FOV of HMDs.
