Kopin Corp. announced it has signed an agreement with Olympus Corporation to co-develop ultra-compact display modules for emerging consumer headsets, often referred to as Video Eyewear or Glass, for computing and communication applications. For comfort and ease of use, the consumer headsets should be super small and light.

The agreement pairs Olympus, the world leader in very small optics used for medical applications, with Kopin whose unique high-resolution liquid crystal displays (CyberDisplay(R) products) exhibit extremely high brightness and very low power consumption.
