Information display apparatus
A small information display apparatus capable of displaying video information on a windshield as a virtual image is provided. An information display apparatus configured to display video information of a virtual image on a windshield of a conveyance includes: a liquid crystal panel arranged as a video display apparatus configured to form the video information; and a virtual image optical system provided with a windshield for displaying the virtual image at a front of the conveyance by reflecting video of the liquid crystal panel by means of the windshield. The virtual image optical system is configured by arranging a concave mirror and an optical element between the concave mirror and the video display apparatus.
FLOATING IMAGE DISPLAY DEVICE
A floating image display device, configured to generate a floating image, is provided. The floating image display device includes an image module and at least one transflective optical element. The image module is configured to provide a first image. The transflective optical element includes a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface. The first image is located between the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface. Each of the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface includes a curved surface and has no opening on an optical axis thereof. The second reflective surface is a transflective surface. The first reflective surface and the second reflective surface are configured to re-converge rays from the first image to form a second image. The second image is a floating image.

Stereo camera
A first mirror has a first reflecting surface convexed in a first direction, a first apex, and a first fan shape. A second mirror has a second reflecting surface convexed in a second direction, a second apex, and a second fan shape. An imaging optical system forms images from a first light emitted from an object, reflected by the first reflecting surface, and subsequently further reflected by the second reflecting surface, and a second light emitted from the object and reflected by the second reflecting surface. The first and second fan shapes have interior angles of 180° or more. A center position of the image sensor is displaced with respect to an optical axis of the imaging optical system. A short side of a photo-receiving surface of the image sensor and a center line of the image of the first or second fan shape are approximately parallel.

DIOPTRIC TELESCOPE FOR HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGING IN VISIBLE AND INFRARED BANDS
A cata-dioptric optical system for high resolution imaging in visible and infrared bands. The system includes a concave primary mirror, a convex secondary mirror, at least one beam splitter, a first folding mirror, a first group of lenses, a second group of lenses, and at least two image planes. The image planes have one or more aggregated sensors, where a first image plane receives rays from the first group of lenses and a second image plane receives rays from the second group of lenses, and at least one image plane is positioned behind the primary mirror and at a radial distance from the optical axis that is no more than the radius of the primary mirror.
TWO MIRROR SCANNING RELAY OPTICS
Described are two mirror scanning projectors employing a collimated laser beam directed to a first mirror that scans in one direction, an optical relay system, and a second mirror that scans in a perpendicular direction from the first mirror to provide two dimensional scanning of the laser beam.
COMPENSATING CORNEAL OPACITY
An electronic intraocular device is implantable into the capsular bag of a wearer's eye. In some cases, the intraocular device may include a femtoprojector. The femtoprojector projects images onto the wearer's retina when the electronic intraocular device is implanted in the wearer's eye. Different haptic designs may be used to keep the femtoprojector in position. In some embodiments, an imager is contained in a contact lens worn by the wearer. Images captured by the contact lens imager may be relayed to the intraocular femtoprojector. In some cases, the intraocular device may include an electronic capsular tension ring with a femtoimager. The femtoimager may capture images of the wearer's retina, for example for purposes of monitoring eye health.
RESTORING SIGHT AFTER CORNEAL BLINDNESS
An electronic intraocular device is implantable into the capsular bag of a wearer's eye. In some cases, the intraocular device may include a femtoprojector. The femtoprojector projects images onto the wearer's retina when the electronic intraocular device is implanted in the wearer's eye. Different haptic designs may be used to keep the femtoprojector in position. In some embodiments, an imager is contained in a contact lens worn by the wearer. Images captured by the contact lens imager may be relayed to the intraocular femtoprojector. In some cases, the intraocular device may include an electronic capsular tension ring with a femtoimager. The femtoimager may capture images of the wearer's retina, for example for purposes of monitoring eye health.
INTRAOCULAR FEMTOPROJECTOR
An electronic intraocular device is implantable into the capsular bag of a wearer's eye. In some cases, the intraocular device may include a femtoprojector.
