For the most advanced e-ink display, it offers 300 ppi. I don't think this kind of resolution is sufficient for VR.

  I know e-ink is expensive. But two tiny screens aren't THAT expensive. Someone will probably a have version of this on Hack A Day made from spares.

    I have actually made a pi powered eReader with a 2.7 inch eink screen with Python. I could pretty easily swap the code over to work with the 1.3 inch screens they use here. And no, I suck at doing write ups on my projects so I don’t have one lol. But here is the write up someone else did when they saw my post on Reddit. https://www.hackster.io/news/diy-e-reader-incorporates-mechanical-key-switches-7755045a3c3c https://www.hackster.io/news/diy-e-reader-incorporates-mecha...

        Hi! Sorry I didn’t see this when you commented. I would definitely be interested in trying to hack on one of these

    The only particularly cutting edge tech on this thing are the custom pancake lenses. Same optics style as in the Vision Pro and Quest 3. Those are $$$
