Hi All
I want to build my first HMD but i can't find good display.
I have LCD screen from portable DVD player but it looks poor when i look at it trough lenses.
(Same thing with my IPS LED PC monitor)
I tried using my Phone screen (which through lenses looks amazing) but it can't be used as PC display (horrible lag).
Anyway
Can somebody explain to me why my DVD player screen looks poorly while my Phone screen looks great?
Does it have to do something with display type (TFT, LCD, LED) ?
How to choose the best display for HMD?
Many thanks

I'd suggest you do a search of the various threads on here talking about HMD screens there are several.
Here's a few to start you off:

Because the DPI is much higher in a phone than in a DVD Player or a monitor. Also the screen of your DVD player is probably garbage and the screen of the iPhone is one of the best available. If you compare the price of your phone and your DVD player you'll probably have a good starting point for the answer.kmiecik57 wrote:Can somebody explain to me why my DVD player screen looks poorly while my Phone screen looks great?
No, it has to do with DPI and build quality at this point.kmiecik57 wrote:Does it have to do something with display type (TFT, LCD, LED) ?

But if you don't find the second link given to you by V8Griff useful, you should probably buy a HMD instead of trying to build one.

Hi!
Why not take your phone?
I never had enough money to buy or even build something like Rift,
but I recently got a durovis dive and I'm f*cking in love - VR and AR for less than 80$ <3 <3 <3
