DEVICES WITH MONOCHROMATIC LIQUID CRYSTAL ON SILICON DISPLAYS
A method includes projecting a single color illumination light having a first color on a liquid crystal on silicon display device, thereby obtaining a single color image light having the first color from the liquid crystal on silicon display device. The method also includes receiving image light having at least a second color that is different from the first color from a display panel that is different from a liquid crystal on silicon display device and combining the single color image light and the image light for projection toward an eye.
Method for producing a digital image, associated computer program product and optical system
An optical system for restoring a natural image combined with a digital image, in order to characterise and highlight the objects represented on the natural image. The optical system includes an objective lens, an eyepiece, a semi-reflective plate, a processing unit, capturing capabilities and restoring capabilities. Other embodiments relate to a method for producing such a digital image.
WATCHMAKER'S LOUPE
An optical device including a first optical axis; an optical device body, notably a substantially cylindrical body; and a capture device for capturing at least a portion of the images seen by the user through the optical device; the optical device being a monocular watchmaker's loupe that can be positioned or worn in front of or close to a user's eye.
Field-effect transistor, display element, image display device, and system
A field-effect transistor including a semiconductor layer formed of an n-type metal oxide semiconductor, wherein the n-type metal oxide semiconductor includes indium oxide, wherein the indium oxide is n-type doped through introduction of one or more kinds of cations as dopants, and wherein the n-type metal oxide semiconductor has a peak detected at an angle corresponding to a (222) plane of indium oxide having a bixbite structure in an X-ray diffraction method using a two-dimensional detector.
OPTICAL SYSTEM FOR DISPLAYING MAGNIFIED VIRTUAL IMAGE
An optical system for displaying a magnified virtual image of an image emitted by a display to a viewer. The optical system includes first and second lenses facing each other and spaced apart by an air gap to define an optical cavity therebetween. The optical cavity includes a reflective polarizer disposed on a major surface of the first lens, and an optical stack disposed on a major surface of the second lens. The optical stack includes an absorbing polarizer, a first retarder layer, a partial reflector, and a second retarder layer disposed between the absorbing polarizer and the partial reflector. The first and/or second lenses is/are birefringent lens provided outside the optical cavity to control polarization.

INTERACTIVE PEPPER'S GHOST EFFECT SYSTEM
An interactive Pepper's Ghost system includes a sensor configured to detect a parameter indicative of an orientation of a handheld device. The Pepper's Ghost system also includes a controller configured to receive, from the sensor, sensor feedback corresponding to the parameter indicative of the orientation of the handheld device. The controller is configured to control a Pepper's Ghost visual effect based on the sensor feedback.
Optical assembly with holographic optics for folded optical path
An optical device for a head-mounted display device includes a first partial reflector and a second partial reflector positioned relative to the first partial reflector so that the second partial reflector receives first light transmitted through the first partial reflector and reflects at least a portion of the first light toward the first partial reflector as second light. At least a portion of the second light is reflected by the first partial reflector as third light, and at least a portion of the third light is transmitted through the second partial reflector. At least one of the first partial reflector or the second partial reflector includes a reflective holographic element.
Surgical visualization systems and displays
A medical apparatus is described for providing visualization of a surgical site. The medical apparatus includes an electronic display disposed within a display housing, the electronic display configured to produce a two-dimensional image. The medical apparatus includes a display optical system disposed within the display housing, the display optical system comprising a plurality of lens elements disposed along an optical path. The display optical system is configured to receive the two-dimensional image from the electronic display, produce a beam with a cross-section that remains substantially constant along the optical path, and produce a collimated beam exiting the opening in the display housing. The medical apparatus can also include an auxiliary video camera configured to provide an oblique view of a patient on the electronic display without requiring a surgeon to adjust their viewing angle through oculars viewing the electronic display.
