The present invention relates to a stereo eye tracking technique. The eye tracking device comprises a processing unit configured and operable for receiving at least one image being indicative of a user's eye; identifying in the image a first data being indicative of pupil's parameters; receiving a second data being indicative of an alternative eye tracking, wherein the second data is more accurate than the first data; and correlating between the first and second data and determining a three-dimensional position and gaze direction of the user's eye.

In general, the disclosure describes a sensor comprising a photo-sensitive silicon substrate configured to detect ultraviolet (UV), visible, and near-infrared (NIR) light and an upconversion layer comprising a plurality of crystals configured to convert short wave infrared light to UV, visible, or NIR light. An example sensor includes an upconversion layer comprising a plurality of crystals configured to convert electromagnetic radiation comprising a first range of wavelengths greater than 1100 nm to electromagnetic radiation comprising a second range of wavelengths less than or equal to 1100 nm and a photo-sensitive silicon substrate configured to detect the electromagnetic radiation comprising the second range of wavelengths.

A display apparatus, a display management module and a method for ambient light compensation are described. The display management module is configured to receive an input video signal comprising a sequence of video frames and to determine whether a current video frame of the sequence of video frames immediately follows a scene change. The display management module is further configured to adjust ambient light compensation applied to the input signal in dependence on the signal indicative of intensity of ambient light only in response to determining that the current video frame of the sequence of video frames immediately follows a scene change.

A display system and method are disclosed that includes an electronic display device and a backlight comprising a light-emitting array, a reflector adjacent to the light-emitting array, a diffuser opposite the reflector, a first brightness enhancing layer adjacent the diffuser, and an optical film in the backlight unit that includes at least one light conversion material or at least one light conversion material. The light conversion material is structured and configured to reduce hazardous blue light emissions between about 400 nm to about 500 nm. The disclosed display device can include a liquid crystal panel configured to control transmission of light from the backlight to a viewer. The display device also includes one or more optical films that incorporate one or more light conversion or light absorbing materials. The optical films can be positioned between the layers of the disclosed display device and give enhanced blue-light absorption to the display device.

A filter device for an optical sensor, including a hologram having a defined number of holographic functions, which are developed in such a way that the filter device blocks optical radiation that impinges upon the filter device from a defined first solid angle and optical radiation that impinges upon the filter device from a defined second solid angle is able to pass through the filter device.

The present disclosure relates to a filter unit, a filter selection method, and an imaging device that allow continuously changing a transmittance of an ND filter and switching between filters to be performed more easily. A disk provided with a plurality of filters including an ND filter having a continuously variable transmittance is rotated to cause a filter corresponding to a rotational orientation of the disk among the plurality of filters provided on the disk to be arranged on an optical axis of incident light toward an image sensor. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, a filter unit, an imaging device, electronic equipment, a filter selection method, a program, or the like.
