Disclosed herein are embodiments of a method of forming a glass article having a glass cover sheet and a frame. The glass cover sheet includes a first major surface and a second major surface in which the second major surface is opposite the first major surface. The frame has a support surface. In the method, a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape is applied to a first region of the glass cover sheet or of the frame. A liquid adhesive is applied to a second region of the glass cover sheet or of the frame. Pressure is applied to the glass cover sheet and the frame to cause the pressure-sensitive adhesive to adhere the glass cover sheet to the frame at a first bond strength. The liquid adhesive is cured to adhere the glass cover sheet to the frame at a second bond strength that is greater than the first bond strength.

The invention relates to an area light decorative element (1) comprising an optically activatable symbol body (2) at least partially formed of a transparent optically activatable first material (9) and configured to emit visible light in response to the optically activatable symbol body (2) being excited with electromagnetic radiation in a predetermined first frequency range, a light element (3) consisting of a transparent material, wherein the optically activatable symbol body (2) is arranged in the light element (3), a touch-sensitive surface (4) disposed in a first area (5) of a surface of the light element (3) above the optically activatable symbol body (2) for detecting a touch of a user in the first area (5), and an illumination unit (6) which is arranged to emit visible light in a predetermined visible frequency range (22) into the light element (3) and, together with the visible light, also to emit electromagnetic radiation in the predetermined first frequency range into the light element (3).

A 3D display device includes a display panel, an optical element, a second communication module, and a controller. The display panel is mounted on a moving body and configured to display a parallax image. The optical element is configured to define a propagation direction of image light emitted from the display panel. The second communication module is configured to receive a motion signal indicating a parameter of a motion of the moving body.

A communication head-up display system includes a communication device and a head-up display. The communication device includes a first controller which determines eye-positions of eyes of a user in at least one direction. The head-up display includes a display panel, an optical element, a reflector. The display panel displays a parallax image. The optical element defines a propagation direction of image light emitted from the parallax image. The reflector reflects the image light whose propagation direction is defined by the optical element. The reflector includes a reflection element and a drive device. The reflection element reflects the image light. The drive device changes at least one of position and posture of the reflection element so that the image light reflected by the reflection element arrives at the eye-positions.

An imaging unit captures an image of a visual field. A detector detects a position of an eyeball and a sight line of an occupant. A visual point identifier identifies a position of a visual point of the occupant in the visual field, the eye position and the sight line direction. A measuring unit measures a position and a distance of an object included in the image of the visual field. An image generator generates display images based on the eye position and the position and the distance of the object. The display images are displayed on a virtual plane, fused on a fusion plane and displayed as a three-dimensional display on the visual field. The display images are generated to display the three-dimensional image at a given magnification ratio calculated by reducing a geometric display magnification ratio as the distance from the occupant increases.

A display apparatus includes a display element, an optical element, a projection optical system, a driver, and a controller. The display element includes a display surface having subpixels arranged in a grid pattern along a first direction and a second direction approximately orthogonal to the first direction. The optical element is configured to define a beam direction of image light emitted from the subpixels in each of strip-shaped regions that extend in the second direction on the display surface. The projection optical system is configured to project image light having the beam direction defined by the optical element to form a virtual image of the display surface. The driver is configured to displace the optical element. The controller is configured to displace the optical element using the driver.
