10. The Explorer version of Google Glass uses a Liquid Crystal
on Silicon(LCoS), field-sequential color, LED illuminated
display
The display's LED illumination is first P-polarized and then
shines through the in-coupling polarizing beam splitter
(PBS) to the LCoS panel.
The panel reflects the light and alters it to S-polarization at
active pixel sites. The in-coupling PBS then reflects the S-
polarized areas of light at 45° through the out-coupling
beam splitter to a collimating reflector at the other end.
Finally, the out-coupling beam splitter reflects the
collimated light another 45° and into the wearer's eye
