WINDOW ASSEMBLIES, IMAGING SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE IMAGING SYSTEM, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING THE IMAGING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17724124 titled 'WINDOW ASSEMBLIES, IMAGING SYSTEM INCLUDING THE SAME, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE IMAGING SYSTEM, AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING THE IMAGING SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a window assembly that includes a transparent window layer and a coded mask layer. The coded mask layer is designed to change certain properties of light passing through the window assembly.
- The coded mask layer is made up of a meta-surface, which includes a phase modulation meta-pattern and an amplitude modulation meta-pattern.
- The window assembly may also include a second coded mask layer on the opposite surface of the window layer, which further changes the properties of the light passing through.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Architectural design: The window assembly can be used in buildings to control the amount of light entering a space and to create unique visual effects.
- Automotive industry: The window assembly can be used in vehicles to enhance privacy, reduce glare, and improve energy efficiency.
- Display technology: The coded mask layer can be used in electronic displays to improve image quality and visibility in different lighting conditions.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Light control: The coded mask layer allows for precise control over the properties of light passing through the window assembly, providing solutions for issues such as glare and privacy.
- Energy efficiency: By controlling the amount of light entering a space, the window assembly can help reduce the need for artificial lighting and improve energy efficiency.
Benefits of this technology:
- Customization: The coded mask layer can be designed with different shapes and patterns to achieve specific light control effects, allowing for customization based on individual needs and preferences.
- Versatility: The window assembly can be used in various applications and industries, providing a versatile solution for light control and energy efficiency.
Original Abstract Submitted
A window assembly includes a transparent window layer and a first coded mask layer provided on a first surface of the window layer, the first coded mask layer having a first shape configured to change a first property of light passing through the window assembly. The first coded mask layer may include a meta-surface including a phase modulation meta-pattern. The meta-surface may further include an amplitude modulation meta-pattern. A second coded mask layer having a second shape configured to change a second property of the light passing through the window assembly may further be provided on a second surface of the window layer.
