'''Optical see-through head-mounted display''', also called '''Optical head-mounted display''' or '''OHMD''', is a type of [[head-mounted display]] that projects images and allows the user to see through its display. OHMDs are used in [[augmented reality]] (AR). Unlike [[head-mounted display#Virtual Reality HMDs|Virtual Reality HMDs]] that obscures our vision of the real world, OHMDs allow us to see our surroundings while streaming data and image overlays in front of our eyes. | '''Optical see-through head-mounted display (OST-HMD)''', also called '''Optical head-mounted display''' or '''OHMD''', is a type of [[head-mounted display]] that projects images and allows the user to see through its display.
