HOLOGRAPHIC VR DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240168284 titled 'HOLOGRAPHIC VR DISPLAY
The patent application describes a holographic display system that includes an illuminator, a spatial light modulator (SLM), a beam redirector, and an ocular lens. A controller is used to provide exit pupils at specific eyebox locations for observing holographic images in a time-sequential manner, creating a grid of exit pupils/eyebox locations. An eye tracking system can center the grid around the current eye pupil position to enhance the viewing experience.
- Holographic display system with illuminator, SLM, beam redirector, and ocular lens
- Controller provides exit pupils at eyebox locations for observing holographic images
- Time-sequential formation of exit pupils creates a grid of exit pupils/eyebox locations
- Eye tracking system centers the grid around the current eye pupil position for improved viewing experience
Potential Applications: - Entertainment industry for immersive holographic displays - Medical field for advanced imaging techniques - Education sector for interactive learning experiences
Problems Solved: - Limited viewing angles in traditional holographic displays - Lack of eye tracking technology for optimizing viewing experience

Question 2: What are the potential commercial applications of this holographic display system? Answer: This technology can be applied in various industries such as entertainment, medicine, and education for immersive and interactive experiences, potentially transforming the way holographic content is displayed and viewed.
Original Abstract Submitted
a holographic display includes an illuminator, a spatial light modulator (slm) coupled to the illuminator, a beam redirector and an ocular lens coupled to the slm. a controller is operably coupled to the slm and the beam redirector and configured to provide exit pupils at eyebox locations where a holographic image may be observed. the exit pupils provided in a time-sequential manner, forming a grid of exit pupils/eyebox locations. an eye tracking system may be used to center the grid around the current eye pupil position, to provide a larger overall eyebox for viewing the holographically generated image.
