A novel near‐to‐eye display has been demonstrated, using a scanning fiber as the image source. Light is relayed from remote sources to the scanner via singlemode optical fiber. As a replacement for conventional LCD image sources, the fiber scanner reduces weight and power consumption, and enables a water‐immersible display.
