Simulation-based design and rapid prototyping of a parallax-free, orthoscopic video see-through head-mounted display

We built a video see-through head-mounted display with zero eye offset from commercial components and a mount fabricated via rapid prototyping. The orthoscopic HMD's layout was created and optimized with a software simulator. We describe simulator and HMD design, we show the HMD in use and demonstrate zero parallax.
