Examples are disclosed herein related to controlling a scanning mirror system. One example provides a display device, comprising a light source, a scanning mirror system configured to scan light from the light source in a first direction at a first, higher scan rate, and in a second direction at a second, lower scan rate, and a drive circuit configured to control the scanning mirror system to display video image data by providing a control signal to the scanning mirror system to control scanning in the second direction, and for each video image data frame of at least a subset of video image data frames, combining the control signal with an adjustment signal to adjust the scanning in the second direction, the adjustment signal comprising a low pass filtered signal with a cutoff frequency based on a lowest resonant frequency of the scanning mirror system in the second direction.

A display system includes a display screen, a light source to generate a light beam to be modulated in accordance with image data, and a beam scanning module to receive the light beams and to direct the light beam onto an associated display region of the display screen. The beam scanning module includes a resonant mirror configured to scan the light beam along a first scanning direction across the associated display region, and a linear scanning mirror to scan the light beam along a second scanning direction across the associated display region. The beam scanning module also includes an integral fold mirror positioned to reflect the light beam from the light source to the resonant mirror.

A method for processing data for display on a screen involves encoding, using a first colour space, a first portion of image data intended to be displayed on a first area of the screen and encoding, using a second colour space, a second portion of image data intended to be displayed on a second area of the screen. The encoded first and second portions of the image data are compressed, and transmitted over a link for display on the screen. By using different colour spaces to encode image data that is displayed in different parts of a screen, differences in a users vision and/or aberrations caused by display equipment may be accounted for and so provide an improved user experience. Using different colour spaces for different screen areas may also reduce the amount of data that needs to be transmitted, for example by encoding image data more effectively and/or allowing more efficient compression of data.

A display device, including a display surface, a laser beam emitter, and a processor. The display device may further include a slow-scan MEMS driver configured to drive a slow-scan mirror and a fast-scan MEMS driver configured to drive a fast-scan mirror. The slow-scan mirror and the fast-scan mirror may reflect the laser beam onto an active region of the display surface. The slow-scan period may include a scanning interval in which the slow-scan mirror is configured to move to a final scanning position at one or more scanning ramp rates and a flyback interval in which the slow-scan mirror is configured to return to the initial scanning position. The processor may generate a modified slow-scan drive signal by modifying one or more of the initial scanning position, the final scanning position, and the scanning ramp rate in a blank region of the display surface.

This document relates to an optical device that uses a mirror scanning system as part of a display engine, where images generated by the mirror scanning system can be propagated through a waveguide or other such optical assembly to a user's eye. The mirror scanning system can utilize a magnetic assembly, where the mirror of the scanning system can be held in place magnetically instead of using support structures such as torsion bars or beams. Actuators can then be actuated to control the tilt of the mirror by way of magnetic fields, providing a greater field of movement for the optical element and enabling a spherical scan area to be produced.

Described are various embodiments of a pupil tracking system and method, and digital display device and digital image rendering system and method using same. In one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for improving a perceptive experience of light field content projected via a light field display within a light field viewing zone comprises sequentially acquiring a user feature location, and comparing a velocity computed therefrom with a designated threshold velocity. Upon the velocity corresponding with a transition from a relatively dynamic to a relatively static state, a rendering geometry of the light field content is adjusted to project the light field content within an adjusted light field viewing zone in accordance with a newly acquired user feature location.
