A head mounted virtual reality display system and method is provided. The invention includes a head mounted apparatus worn by a user and a display element having an array of display regions wherein said display region contains a smaller active region having an output aperture with at least one pixel of variable color and luminosity and larger non-active region adjacent to the active region. The invention further includes means for scanning the apparent position of the active region onto the user's eye in both horizontal and/or vertical directions between a plurality of sub-frames within the display region in a pre-determined fill pattern, wherein said sub-frames cover an area including the original position of the larger non-active region and active region on the display region. In addition, a processor is provided which is configured to synchronize activation and adapt the color and luminosity of said at least one pixel in each said active region when the apparent position of the active region is scanned between sub-frames in order to correspond with the desired resolution of a multimedia image to be viewed by the user's eye.
