MEMS for Mixed-Reality Displays
BIOGRAPHY
Wyatt Davis received a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley as a research assistant at the Berkeley Sensor and Actuator Center. Since then he has been developing optical MEMS for 21 years, first at the startup Onix Microsystems and then for 14 years at Microvision. While at Microvision Dr. Davis designed MEMS scanning mirrors for head-up displays, portable projection displays, endoscopes, barcode scanners, laser printers, and LiDAR. Since 2017 he has been at Microsoft as a Principal Display System Engineer with the Hololens team. In 2019 Microsoft released Hololens 2, the first mixed-reality product incorporating a MEMS scanning mirror display.
