WAVEGUIDE CORRECTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18152591 titled 'WAVEGUIDE CORRECTION

The patent application describes a computing system that corrects chrominance errors in images displayed on a screen using a waveguide.

  • The system accesses an image and an array of correction factors for pixel values.
  • The correction factors are based on chrominance components in an opponent color space.
  • These correction factors correct chrominance errors associated with the image.
  • The system adjusts the pixel values of the image based on the correction factors.
  • The corrected image is then output to the display through the waveguide.

Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in augmented reality and virtual reality devices to improve image quality. - It can also be applied in medical imaging systems to enhance the accuracy of diagnostic images.

Problems Solved: - Corrects chrominance errors in images displayed on screens. - Improves the overall image quality and accuracy.

Benefits: - Enhances the viewing experience by correcting chrominance errors. - Increases the accuracy of images displayed on screens.

Commercial Applications: - This technology can be integrated into smart glasses, head-mounted displays, and medical imaging devices. - It can be utilized in the entertainment industry for immersive experiences in gaming and virtual reality.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the system determine the array of correction factors for pixel values?

  - The system determines the correction factors based on chrominance components in an opponent color space.

2. What are the potential applications of this technology beyond image correction?

  - This technology can be used in various industries such as healthcare, entertainment, and education for enhanced visual experiences.


Original Abstract Submitted

In one embodiment, a computing system may access an image to be displayed on a display through a waveguide. The system may access an array of correction factors for pixel values of the image. The array of correction factors, once applied to the pixel values of the image, may correct a chrominance error associated with the image. The array of correction factors may be determined based at least on two chrominance components corresponding to a transmission character of the waveguide in an opponent color space. The system may adjust the pixel values of the image based on the array of correction factors. The system may output the image with the adjusted pixel values to the display through the waveguide.
