DISPLAY APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240337830 titled 'DISPLAY APPARATUS
The patent application describes a display apparatus designed to prevent unwanted images from being visually recognized by an observer and others.
- Image light generation apparatus generates image light.
- Light guide plate guides the image light from the image light generation apparatus to an eyeball.
- Light guide plate main body includes a light incident surface and an optical surface group to guide the image light.
- At least one reflection surface inside the light guide plate reflects the image light to the eyeball.
- At least one light-shielding portion in the light guide plate shields a stray light component of the image light.
Potential Applications: - Privacy screens for electronic devices - Security displays for confidential information - Anti-spying technology for sensitive environments
Problems Solved: - Preventing unauthorized viewing of displayed content - Protecting sensitive information from being compromised - Enhancing privacy and security in various settings
Benefits: - Enhanced privacy protection - Improved security measures - Customizable display settings for different environments
Commercial Applications: Title: Privacy Screen Technology for Enhanced Security Displays This technology can be utilized in industries such as finance, healthcare, and government where privacy and security are paramount. It can also be integrated into consumer electronics to provide users with enhanced privacy options.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the light guide plate prevent unwanted images from being visually recognized?
The light guide plate includes reflection surfaces and light-shielding portions to control the direction and visibility of the image light.
2. What are the potential implications of this technology for industries that require high levels of privacy and security?
This technology can significantly enhance data protection and confidentiality in sectors such as finance, healthcare, and government.
Original Abstract Submitted
to provide a display apparatus capable of preventing unwanted images from being visually recognized by an observer and others. a display apparatus according to the present technology includes: an image light generation apparatus that generates image light; and a light guide plate that guides the image light from the image light generation apparatus to an eyeball, in which the light guide plate includes a light guide plate main body including a light incident surface upon which the image light enters, and an optical surface group including a plurality of optical surfaces that guides the image light via the light incident surface, at least one reflection surface that is provided inside the light guide plate main body and reflects the image light via the optical surface group to a side of the eyeball, and at least one light-shielding portion that is provided in the light guide plate main body and shields a stray light component of the image light. in accordance with a display apparatus according to the present technology, a display apparatus capable of preventing unwanted images from being visually recognized by an observer and other people can be provided.
