You could make an occlusion shutter but I haven’t seen a small lcd with the requisite speed and resolution.

You actually can't do that: People have tried, but the plane of focus makes the LCD too blurry. It's an unsolved technology problem.

  • So the whole light field techbuzz was just vaporware hype? Or no, but even that can't do black?

    • Actually, my understanding is that light field is actually the ONLY way you could have ar with opaque black. However, you'd need orders of magnitude better light field tech than what's available.
