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

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240248315 titled 'BATTERY WAVEGUIDE FOR AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY

Simplified Explanation: An eyewear display system incorporates a transparent battery into a lens portion to serve as a waveguide substrate, transmitting display light from a micro-display while supplying power to it.

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

Potential Applications: 1. Augmented reality glasses 2. Heads-up displays in vehicles 3. Smart glasses for industrial use

Problems Solved: 1. Providing a power source for micro-displays in eyewear 2. Efficiently transmitting display light within the eyewear system

Benefits: 1. Enhanced display capabilities in eyewear 2. Improved user experience with augmented reality features

Commercial Applications: The technology can be used in smart glasses for various industries, including healthcare, manufacturing, and logistics, enhancing productivity and efficiency.

Prior Art: Researchers can explore prior patents related to transparent batteries, waveguide substrates, and eyewear display systems to understand the existing technology landscape.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in transparent battery technology, waveguide substrates, and micro-display integration for eyewear applications.

Questions about Eyewear Display System: 1. How does the transparent battery in the eyewear display system improve display performance? 2. What are the potential challenges in integrating a transparent battery as a waveguide substrate in eyewear systems?


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).
