The Oculus focal surface display project was a long time in development.

According to a research scientist at Oculus Research, “manipulating focus isn’t quite the same as modulating intensity or other more usual tasks in computational displays, and it took us a while to get to the correct mathematical formulation that finally brought everything together. Our overall motivation was to do things the "right" way: solid engineering combined with the math and algorithms to back it up. We weren’t going to be happy with something that only worked on paper or a hacked together prototype that didn’t have any rigorous explanation of why it worked.” <ref name=”1”></ref> | ||
On May, 2017, the VR and AR R&D division of Oculus - Oculus Research - announced the new display technology. During the same period, they published a research paper about their focal surface display, authored by Oculus scientists Nathan Matsuda, Alexander Fix, and [[Douglas Lanman]]. The research was also presented at the SIGGRAPH conference in July, 2017. <ref name=”7”>Lang, B. (2017). Oculus Research reveals “groundbreaking” focal surface display.
