@yorwba - You are correct, of course the fiber scan retinal display is feasible (albeit certainly very difficult to implement in an array for a wide FOV AR display). Please don't subscribe to the nonsense issued in the subject blog.

For proof of concept, one need only look at the fiber scan endoscope demos:

This is essentially the same technology, but operated in reverse (i.e. using the scanning fiber as a camera vice an image projector).
