BATTERY WAVEGUIDE FOR AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18098916 titled 'BATTERY WAVEGUIDE FOR AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY

Simplified Explanation: An eyewear display system incorporates a transparent battery into the lens portion to serve as a waveguide substrate for display light transmission.

  • The eyewear display system includes a transparent battery as a waveguide substrate.
  • The battery receives display light from a micro-display and transmits it from a proximal to a distal end.
  • The battery also supplies power to the micro-display.
  • A transflective mirror or diffraction structure on the battery's surface couples light in and out.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Integration of a transparent battery as a waveguide substrate in eyewear display systems.
  • Transmission of display light from a micro-display through the battery.
  • Dual functionality of the battery in light transmission and power supply.
  • Use of a transflective mirror or diffraction structure for light coupling.

Potential Applications:

  • Augmented reality glasses
  • Virtual reality headsets
  • Heads-up displays in automotive technology

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient display light transmission in eyewear systems
  • Power supply for micro-displays in compact devices

Benefits:

  • Enhanced display quality
  • Improved power efficiency
  • Compact and lightweight design

Commercial Applications: Eyewear display systems with transparent battery waveguides can revolutionize the augmented reality and virtual reality industries, offering immersive experiences in various applications.

Questions about Eyewear Display System with Transparent Battery: 1. How does the transparent battery function as a waveguide substrate in the eyewear display system? 2. What are the potential market implications of this innovative technology?


Original Abstract Submitted

An eyewear display system incorporates a substantially transparent battery into a lens portion of the eyewear display system to serve as a waveguide substrate. The substantially transparent battery waveguide receives display light from a micro-display and transmits the display light from a proximal end of the waveguide to a distal end of the waveguide while also supplying power to the micro-display. Either a transflective mirror or a diffraction structure is disposed on the surface of the substantially transparent battery to couple light into and out of the substantially transparent battery (i.e., to serve as the incoupler and outcoupler).
