When the market desires a solution so strongly, sometimes engineering companies figure out a clever solution, physics constraints be damned. (fit thousands of phonograph records in your pocket, no way!)
Is there any equivalent to retinal displays that could be used to create a sort of "projected lens"? Maybe heat up the air with a laser in a careful way to create a temporary optic? No, that's probably too far out.
Perhaps, like the retinal display, the military will have the incentive to eventually research this, and find some far-out solution that industry can then produce?
