The optical assembly is positioned relative to the light source so that at least a first portion of the illumination light received by the optical assembly is reflected by the second reflective surface toward the first reflective surface, is reflected by the first reflective surface toward the second reflective surface, and is transmitted through the second reflective surface. A method performed by the display device is also disclosed.

The occlusion is faithfully expressed even in the binocular vision in the AR display by a head mounted display apparatus or the like. A head mounted display apparatus 10 includes a lens 12, a lens 13, a camera 14, a camera 15, and a control processor 16. A CG image for a right eye is displayed on the lens 12. A CG image for a left eye is displayed on the lens 13. The camera 14 captures an image for the right eye. The camera 15 captures an image for the left eye. The control processor 16 generates the CG image for the right eye in which occlusion at the time of seeing by the right eye is expressed and the CG image for the left eye in which occlusion at the time of seeing by the left eye is expressed, based on the images captured by the cameras 14 and 15 and projects the generated CG image for the right eye and CG image for the left eye onto the lenses 12 and 13. A center of a lens of the camera 14 is provided at the same position as a center of the lens 12. A center of a lens of the camera 15 is provided at the same position as a center of the lens 13.

A wearable device is disclosed. The wearable device comprises: a camera; a sensor; a display; a laser projector; and a processor for identifying a user's sight line on the basis of sensing data obtained by the sensor, identifying location information of at least one object included in an image obtained by the camera, and controlling the laser projector to provide, on the display, augmented reality (AR) information related to the object on the basis of the identified user's sight line and location information of the object, wherein the laser projector comprises: a light emitting element for emitting a laser light; a focus adjusting element for adjusting a focus of the emitted laser light; and a scanning mirror for controlling a scan direction of the light having the adjusted focus, and the processor controls a driving state of the focus adjusting element on the basis of the identified user's sight line and location information of the object.

A manufacturing system performs a deposition of an etch-compatible film over a substrate. The etch-compatible film includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The manufacturing system performs a partial removal of the etch-compatible film to create a surface profile on the first surface with a plurality of depths relative to the substrate. The manufacturing system performs a deposition of a second material over the profile created in the etch-compatible film. The manufacturing system performs a planarization of the second material to obtain a plurality of etch heights of the second material in accordance with the plurality of depths in the profile created in the etch-compatible film. The manufacturing system performs a lithographic patterning of a photoresist deposited over the planarized second material to obtain the plurality of etch heights and one or more duty cycles in the second material.
