==METHOD FOR PROJECTING IMAGE CONTENT ONTO THE RETINA OF A USER, IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD AND AN OPTICAL SYSTEM FOR A VIRTUAL RETINAL SCAN DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18551003 titled 'METHOD FOR PROJECTING IMAGE CONTENT ONTO THE RETINA OF A USER, IMAGE PROCESSING DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT THE METHOD AND AN OPTICAL SYSTEM FOR A VIRTUAL RETINAL SCAN DISPLAY

The abstract describes a method for projecting image content onto the retina of a user using an optical system. Image data are captured and processed, with a subset of the data being actively projected onto the user's retina.

* Image data are captured and processed using an image processing device.
* A subset of the image data is actively projected onto the user's retina.
* The projector unit is controlled to ensure that only one eye box is generated on a common imaging path.
* The active image data is arranged in the region of the user's pupil center.
* The user's pupil center is surrounded by a first pupil region where a portion of the active image data is arranged.
* A portion of the active image data is also arranged within a second pupil region, which is surrounded by the first pupil region.

Potential Applications:
- Virtual reality systems
- Augmented reality applications
- Medical imaging technologies

Problems Solved:
- Precise projection of image content onto the user's retina
- Ensuring accurate alignment with the user's pupil center
- Minimizing visual distortion and discomfort

Benefits:
- Enhanced visual experience for users
- Improved accuracy and precision in image projection
- Potential for medical applications in diagnostics and treatment

Commercial Applications:
Title: Advanced Retinal Projection Technology for Immersive Experiences
This technology could be used in:
- Entertainment industry for immersive virtual reality experiences
- Medical field for advanced imaging and diagnostic tools
- Military and defense for simulation and training purposes

Questions about the technology:
1. How does this technology improve the user experience compared to traditional display methods?
2. What are the potential safety considerations when using this technology for extended periods of time?


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A method for projecting image content onto the retina of a user using an optical system. Image data are captured using the image processing device. A first subset of the image data is blanked, thereby generating an active second subset of image data. The first and second subsets make up the total amount of the image data. The projector unit is controlled using the image data such that there is always only one eye box, generated on a common imaging path, with the same active image data arranged in the region of a first pupil region of the user. The first pupil region surrounds the pupil center. A portion of the eye box is arranged with a portion of the active image data within a second pupil region of the user. The second pupil region surrounds the pupil center. The second pupil region is arranged within the first pupil region.
