Holographic display device with color-shifted adjustment

A holographic display device includes a display panel for emitting a first image light and a diffraction component on an optical path of the first image light. The first image light includes first and second colors of light. The diffraction component diffracts the first color light at a first diffraction efficiency and diffracts the second color light at a second diffraction efficiency. The first color light and the second color light after diffraction are mixed together in a second image light for generating holographic images. By emitting the first color light and the second color light in the first image light at the same grayscale value, a ratio of intensities of the first color light and the second color light becomes inversely proportional to a ratio of the first diffraction efficiency and the second diffraction efficiency.

Enhanced pose determination for display device

To determine the head pose of a user, a head-mounted display system having an imaging device can obtain a current image of a real-world environment, with points corresponding to salient points which will be used to determine the head pose. The salient points are patch-based and include: a first salient point being projected onto the current image from a previous image, and with a second salient point included in the current image being extracted from the current image. Each salient point is subsequently matched with real-world points based on descriptor-based map information indicating locations of salient points in the real-world environment. The orientation of the imaging devices is determined based on the matching and based on the relative positions of the salient points in the view captured in the current image. The orientation may be used to extrapolate the head pose of the wearer of the head-mounted display system.
