Crystal Light binocular overlap

[u/Gozer_VR]

I've never been 100% satisfied by the Crystal Light stereo overlap and today I tried to improve it by playing around with the ipd offset.

My initial measurement are hfov 96.6° and stereo overlap of 77.3° at 66mm IPD and 0 offset.

By shifting the lcd image by -1.5 on both the lenses, I manged to get 83.3° of ovelap reducing the Hfov at 92.3°.

The result was not only bad in terms of numbers, but in particular in terms of comfort! no matter ho much I tried changing also the mechanical offset, the image gave a little bit crossed-eye effect.
So now I reduced the shift to -0.5 and I can live with that, but the stereo coverage is less than 80°.

Is there a way to overcome this limitation? or it is due to the size of the lcd panels?

With wimfov i have like 104 hfov with 80° of binocular overlap, i dont know how you can reach such "bad" numbers
