PLANAR WAVEGUIDE APPARATUS WITH DIFFRACTION ELEMENT(S) AND SYSTEM EMPLOYING SAME
A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.
AUGMENTED AND VIRTUAL REALITY DISPLAY SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DIAGNOSING HEALTH CONDITIONS BASED ON VISUAL FIELDS
Configurations are disclosed for a health system to be used in various healthcare applications, e.g., for patient diagnostics, monitoring, and/or therapy. The health system may comprise a light generation module to transmit light or an image to a user, one or more sensors to detect a physiological parameter of the user’s body, including their eyes, and processing circuitry to analyze an input received in response to the presented images to determine one or more health conditions or defects.

Vision testing via prediction-based setting of initial stimuli characteristics for user interface locations
In some embodiments, initial feedback indicating threshold characteristics (under which a user sees initial stimuli presented on a user interface) may be provided to a prediction model, and a set of predicted characteristics (for a set of locations of the user interface) and a set of confidence scores associated with the set of locations may be obtained via the prediction model. Based on the set of confidence scores, one or more locations may be selected to be tested during a visual test presentation. As an example, the locations may be selected over one or more other locations of the set of locations based on the set of confidence scores. Based on predicted characteristics associated with the selected locations, stimuli may be presented at the selected locations during the visual test presentation. Visual defect information for the user may be generated based on feedback from the visual test presentation.
Visual contrast sensitivity cards for pediatric subjects
A visual stimulus for a set of contrast cards is provided which comprises a hollow outer circle, opposing and identical first and second arc segment within the outer circle which are symmetrical about the vertical diameter of the outer circle, a first filled-in circle and a second filled-in circle being identical in diameter to the first filled-in circle, each residing on opposite ends of the horizontal diameter of the outer circle and each being equidistant from the center of the outer circle, a filled-in center element having a rotational center on the center of the outer circle, the center element being symmetrical about both the horizontal and vertical diameter of the outer circle.
INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM
An information processing device including a calculation unit that calculates an evaluation function using a visibility threshold of a test subject obtained by performing a visual acuity examination on the test subject and using a parameter related to a visual object, and a spectral transmittance optimization unit that optimizes a spectral transmittance of a filter having a spectral transmittance to light from the visual object using the evaluation function when passed through the filter.
