DISPLAY APPARATUS PROVIDING IMMERSIVE IMAGE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18126174 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS PROVIDING IMMERSIVE IMAGE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a display apparatus that includes various components to control the polarization state of image light and focus it on a virtual plane at a specific depth position.

  • The display apparatus has an image forming device that provides image light.
  • A polarization controller is included to adjust the polarization state of the image light.
  • A processor controls the polarization controller based on the image information to be displayed.
  • A polarization beam splitter is placed in the optical path of the image light, reflecting light of a certain polarization and transmitting light of a different polarization.
  • A curved mirror is positioned in another optical path of the reflected image light from the polarization beam splitter.
  • The curved mirror focuses the image light on a virtual plane at a specific depth position.


Original Abstract Submitted

A display apparatus includes an image forming device configured to provide image light, a polarization controller configured to adjust a polarization state of the image light provided from the image forming device, a processor configured to control the polarization controller, based on image information to be provided to a user, a polarization beam splitter provided in a first optical path where the image light travels, the polarization beam splitter configured to reflect light of a first polarization, and transmit light of a second polarization that is different from the first polarization, and a first curved mirror provided in a second optical path of first image light among the image light reflected from the polarization beam splitter and configured to focus the first image light on a first virtual plane at a first depth position.
