WEARABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING LENS ASSEMBLY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18218175 titled 'WEARABLE ELECTRONIC DEVICE INCLUDING LENS ASSEMBLY

Simplified Explanation

The wearable electronic device described in the patent application consists of at least four lenses arranged in a specific order along an optical axis, from the user's eye-side to a display. The first lens, closest to the user's eye-side, has at least one flat surface and includes a first quarter wave plate (QWP) and a first refractive member on that surface. The second lens, following the first lens, has at least one convex surface and a second refractive member on that surface.

  • The wearable electronic device includes at least four lenses arranged in a specific order.
  • The first lens, closest to the user's eye-side, has at least one flat surface.
  • The first lens includes a first quarter wave plate (QWP) and a first refractive member on the flat surface.
  • The second lens, following the first lens, has at least one convex surface.
  • The second lens includes a second refractive member on the convex surface.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Augmented reality (AR) devices: The wearable electronic device could be used in AR glasses or headsets to enhance the user's visual experience by overlaying digital information onto the real world.
  • Virtual reality (VR) devices: The device could be utilized in VR headsets to provide immersive visual experiences by creating a virtual environment for the user.
  • Medical devices: The technology could be applied in medical devices such as surgical or diagnostic equipment to improve visualization and accuracy.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improved optical performance: The arrangement of lenses and the use of specific components like the quarter wave plate and refractive members help optimize the optical performance of the device, resulting in clearer and more accurate visuals for the user.
  • Comfort and usability: The design of the wearable electronic device takes into consideration the user's comfort and usability, ensuring that the device can be worn comfortably for extended periods without causing discomfort or strain.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Enhanced user experience: The wearable electronic device provides improved visual quality and clarity, enhancing the user's experience in various applications such as AR, VR, and medical devices.
  • Compact and lightweight: The design of the device allows for a compact and lightweight form factor, making it easier and more convenient for users to wear and carry.
  • Versatile applications: The technology can be applied in various fields, including entertainment, healthcare, and industrial sectors, providing a wide range of potential applications.


Original Abstract Submitted

According to an embodiments, an wearable electronic device comprises: at least four lenses arranged along an optical axis from a user's eye-side to a display, the at least four lenses including a first lens and a second lens; wherein the first lens is closest to the user's eye-side of the at least four lenses and includes at least one flat surface, and a first quarter wave plate (QWP) and a first refractive member disposed on the at least one flat surface, wherein the second lens from the user's eye-side includes at least one convex surface and a second refractive member disposed on the at least one convex surface.
