The one that beams a laser into your eye to draw the screen
pixel-by-pixel on your retina.  They call it a "VRD[tm]" or
"virtual retinal display."

Their marketing copy (www.mvis.com) makes it look ultra-cool,
of course.  I figured someone here might have had the chance
to try one on, and could comment on such things as blind spots,
alignment, the effects of looking away or eye-jitter (changing the
alignment of the beam and the cornea), etc.
