It says here "circular polarizers". That's French for "I'm not eInk".
I wonder is it eink? An eink display is only of value for an ambient lit screen at normal reading distance at high resolution (150 dpi to 300 dpi). It's a worse solution than LCD or OLED for VR, AR or reading goggles as it's harder to light and more expensive. Anyone using eink for reading googles is bonkers.

But I can't think why LCD or OLED would use circular polarisers. All LCD MUST have linear polarised light to work at all. OLED googles don't need any polarisers of any kind.

A polariser reduces the brightness.
