The eye's acuity varies across its field of view, decreasing to 10% of its axial value at only 20 degrees. This creates a situation where standard displays, when used in conjunction with the eye, present more information than can be perceived. This paper describes an optical system that has been developed that radially re‐maps the pixels of a miniature display or sensor to match the varying acuity of the eye across its field of view. This system increases the field of view of an electronic viewing system without any apparent loss in image quality.
