To provide a head-mounted display which affords a wide field of view and sharp resolution, and which is compact lightweight and available.
The head-mounted optical device 10 provides pupil imaging with the very wide field of view. The head-mounted optical device 10 employs a monocentric arrangement of optical components providing the stereoscopic display of a virtual image, electronically generated and projected as left and right images from curved surfaces 68. For each right and left image, a ball lens assembly 30 is used to project a displayed intermediate image from the curved display surface 68 toward a beamsplitter 16, which directs an intermediate image toward the front focal surface of a curved mirror 24 which collimates the image to form the virtual image. The beamsplitter 16 transmits the virtual image for each eye to an observer.
