SCANNING DISPLAY WITH EYE-TRACKING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240231479 titled 'SCANNING DISPLAY WITH EYE-TRACKING
The abstract describes a patent application for a system where image light generated by a display light source is combined with infrared light emitted by an infrared light source. A scan directs these lights to an input coupler of a display waveguide, which presents the image light as a virtual image in an eyebox region.
- Display light source generates image light
- Infrared light source emits infrared light
- Scan directs image light and infrared light to display waveguide
- Display waveguide presents image light as a virtual image in an eyebox region
Potential Applications: - Augmented reality displays - Virtual reality headsets - Military applications for night vision
Problems Solved: - Enhancing visual experience in augmented reality - Providing clear images in low-light conditions
Benefits: - Improved visibility in various lighting conditions - Enhanced user experience in virtual environments
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Augmented Reality Displays This technology can be used in the development of advanced augmented reality devices for commercial and consumer markets. It can revolutionize the way users interact with digital information in real-world environments.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the combination of image light and infrared light improve the visual experience for users? 2. What are the potential limitations of using this technology in different environments?
Original Abstract Submitted
image light is generated with a display light source. the image light is visible. an infrared light source emits infrared light. a scan directs the image light and the infrared light to an input coupler of a display waveguide and the display waveguide presents the image light to an eyebox region as a virtual image.
