Electronic displays are moving towards ultra-high resolution, ultra-thin, no power consumption, and arbitrary bendable shapes, resulting in more and more diversified forms of new-generation displays. In the "2015 OITDA Forecast Blueprint for Electronic Displays" published by the Japan Optoelectronics Industry Technology Development Association (OITDA) in March 2000, it was pointed out that diversified displays in the 21st century can be roughly divided into four categories according to their different uses, respectively. It is a wearable (Wearable) display; a portable (Mobile) display; a home, office and personal (Home, Office And Personal) display; and a public indoor/outdoor (Public Indoor/Outdoor) display. Among them, the wearable display can also be divided into a head-mounted display (Head Mount Display; HMD), an ear-mounted display and a watch display (Wristwatch Display). The portable (Mobile) display can be, for example, a mobile phone, a notebook computer, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a calculator, an e-book, and the like.

In the past, ear-mounted displays were mostly used in military applications to quickly provide information to soldiers. However, ear-mounted displays are currently developing towards entertainment purposes. As far as the ear-mounted display products currently on the market are concerned, two liquid crystal display screens with built-in projection components are generally used to simulate the visual effect of a large-sized screen. In addition, some ear-hook monitors are equipped with subwoofer and surround sound system, so that users can enjoy the effect of home theater while enjoying their favorite programs.
