==DISPLAY DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18264608 titled 'DISPLAY DEVICE

==Simplified Explanation==

The present invention relates to a display device utilizing Foveated rendering technology to eliminate image quality degradation. The device includes a scanning mirror drive unit that controls the scanning mirror to gradually change scanning speeds in different regions of a video frame formed by laser light scanning. Additionally, the device may include a hologram element to focus laser light near the pupil for better retina projection.

* Scanning mirror drive unit controls scanning mirror to change scanning speeds in different regions of a video frame.

==Original Abstract Submitted==

An object of the present invention is to provide technology for eliminating image quality degradation that may occur in a case where a Foveated rendering technology is utilized. A display device () of the present invention includes a scanning mirror drive unit that drives a scanning mirror () such that, in a case where two or more mutually different non-resonant axial direction scanning speeds are used in a drawing region of one frame of a video formed by a laser light scanning, non-resonant axial direction scanning speed gradually changes between the different non-resonant axial direction scanning speeds. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device () may further include a hologram element () that condenses laser light near a pupil () to cause the laser light to reach a retina, the laser light being scanned by the scanning mirror (). According to another embodiment of the present disclosure, the display device may cause the laser light scanned by a scanning mirror to reach a projection surface without through a projection optical system, or through a projection optical system.
