Multichromic filtering layer to enhance screen gain
A multichromic filtering coating is applied to a projector screen to pass to the projector screen substrate only those wavelengths produced by the projector, to accentuate selective wavelengths of light to be reflected by the screen. The screen can be a passive black substrate or an active grayscale screen such as e-ink paper, and un-reflected light reaches the screen which selectively tunes its grayscale to accentuate the brightness or darkness of the color video image being projected onto it.

Projection screen configured to be projected with multi-angle images
A projection screen configured to be projected with multi-angle images includes a base membrane and a coating layer. The base membrane includes a body layer and a plurality of toothed portions connected with the body layer. A profile of each of the toothed portions includes at least one first plane and at least one second plane, where the first plane and the second plane each has a reflection angle different from each other, for providing multi-angle images of projection. The coating layer includes a reflection layer and a light-absorbing layer, where the reflection layer is disposed on the profile of each of the toothed portions; whereas the light-absorbing layer is disposed on the reflection layer, such that, as viewed from a projection position, the coating layer is disposed behind the base membrane. Thereby, the projection screen not only can provide multi-angle images of projection under the circumstance of maintaining the capability of resisting ambient light, but also can prevent the coating layer from contact and abrasion by human behaviors when in use, and as such, the life of use can be prolonged.
Multi-wavelength head up display systems and methods
The disclosure is directed to an optically transparent visual display system that superimposes information onto the field of vision of a pilot or vehicle operator utilizing multiple wavelengths in order to extend the operator's range of vision. The display format may be presented on a head-up display (HUD) in a covert manner using near infra-red (NIR) light that is viewable with standard issue night vision goggles (NVGs) such as the AN/PVS-7, but not viewable to the unaided eye. Display information may originate from multiple wavelength sensors and illuminators for enhanced environmental and situational awareness that extend beyond the five human senses. Direct view displays, such as LCDs and instrument or vehicle lighting systems, may utilize NIR wavelengths that are viewable with NVGs but are not viewable to the unaided eye.
Electronic device
An electronic device includes a display panel, a first optical part, and a second optical part including a diffraction optical element having a diffraction grating. The display panel include a first display area for displaying a first image having a first color, a second display area disposed adjacent to the first display area to display a second image having a second color different from the first color, and a third display area disposed adjacent to the second display area to display a third image having a third color different from the first color and the second color.
Optimizing emissive and color changing projection surfaces
A method and system for optimizing projection surfaces for generating visible images. The projection system may include a projector that emits light in the ultraviolet range and a screen in optical communication with the projector. The screen includes a visible light absorbing layer, a transparent layer positioned over the visible light absorbing layer, and a plurality of fluorescent colorants printed on the transparent layer in a predetermined pattern, where the light emitted by the projector excites the fluorescent colorants to emit visible light forming the visible images. The predetermined pattern can be optimized to increase a color gamut of the formed images by varying surface coverage ratios of the fluorescent colorants.
LUMINOUS CURVED GLASS AND CURVED DIGITAL SIGNAGE
The present invention aims to provide a luminescent curved glass which, despite being curved with a small radius of curvature, can provide a clear display on its entire surface when irradiated with light, and curved digital signage including the luminescent curved glass. Provided is a luminescent curved glass including a laminate including a transparent plate having a radius of curvature of 3,000 mm or lower and a luminescent sheet, the luminescent sheet containing a thermoplastic resin and a luminescent material that emits visible light having a wavelength of 380 to 750 nm under excitation light.
Prism unit and projector
A prism unit includes a first prism and a second prism. The first prism includes a first optical surface that allows the illumination light to enter the prism, a second optical surface that reflects the illumination light that entered through the first optical surface, and a third optical surface that allows the illumination light reflected by the second optical surface to exit the prism. The second prism includes a fourth optical surface that forms a first air gap with the second optical surface and allows the illumination light that exited through the second optical surface to enter the prism, and a fifth optical surface that allows the illumination light that entered through the fourth optical surface to exit the prism.
