The article talks about power requirements and the manufacturing process, but seems to leave out that any image projected into your eye from 0cm away will be blurry beyond recognition. The eye won't be able to focus on it. Has research overcome this limitation? It's very interesting to think that it's possible to project a sensible image into an eye from point blank.

If the cones are very tight (like at laser in the most extreme incarnation), you can point the light sources at different angles and force it to map onto the retina properly. The important point is to reduce the circles of confusion acceptably. You don't necessarily need them to be zero radius.
