I started a company to try to solve these problems without using head mounted displays and we developed 3D displays that work using an array of rectangular lenses and micro displays plus fresnel lens sheets. We adopted this approach to a new product category we called virtual skylights where we replicate the look and feel of an open sky with a distance sun above you. As you walk around a room the sun will follow you in the sky across units due to the optics and there is no need for active head tracking for this particular case. The effect is really amazing even though the content in this case is super simple. Hard to experience on a 2d screen but we have some videos of it here, in the reaction video you can see how people react to seeing it the first time.
