A head-mounted device (HMD) contains a display, an optics block, a redirection structure, and an eye tracking system. The display is configured to emit image light and provide it to an eye of a user. The optics block is configured to direct the emitted light in order to allow it to reach the eye. The eye tracking system contains a camera, an illumination source, and a controller. The camera is configured to capture image data using infrared light reflected from the eye. The controller is configured to use this image data to determine eye tracking information. The illumination source is configured to illuminate the eye with infrared light for the purpose of taking eye tracking measurements. The redirection structure is configured to direct infrared light reflected from the eye to the eye tracking system. In multiple embodiments, redirection structures may comprise prism arrays, lenses, liquid crystal layers, or grating structures.

Probe cards for probing highly-scaled integrated circuits are provided. A probe card includes a backplane and an array of probes extending from the backplane. Each of the probes includes a cantilever member and a probe tip. A first end of the cantilever member is coupled to the backplane, such that the cantilever member extends from the backplane. The probe tip extends from a second end of the cantilever member. The probes are fabricated from semiconductor materials. Each probe is configured to transmit electrical signals between the backplane and a device under test (DUT), via corresponding electrodes of the DUT. The probes are highly-scaled such that the feature size and pitch of the probes matches the highly-scaled feature size and pitch of the DUT's electrodes. The probes comprise atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes that are enhanced for increased electrical conductivity, elasticity, lifetime, and reliability.

Display devices include waveguides with metasurfaces as in-coupling and/or out-coupling optical elements. The metasurfaces may be formed on a surface of the waveguide and may include a plurality or an array of sub-wavelength-scale (e.g., nanometer-scale) protrusions. Individual protrusions may include horizontal and/or vertical layers of different materials which may have different refractive indices, allowing for enhanced manipulation of light redirecting properties of the metasurface. Some configurations and combinations of materials may advantageously allow for broadband metasurfaces. Manufacturing methods described herein provide for vertical and/or horizontal layers of different materials in a desired configuration or profile.

Visual-inertial tracking of an eyewear device using a rolling shutter camera(s). The eyewear device includes a position determining system. Visual-inertial tracking is implemented by sensing motion of the eyewear device. An initial pose is obtained for a rolling shutter camera and an image of an environment is captured. The image includes feature points captured at a particular capture time. A number of poses for the rolling shutter camera is computed based on the initial pose and sensed movement of the device. The number of computed poses is responsive to the sensed movement of the mobile device. A computed pose is selected for each feature point in the image by matching the particular capture time for the feature point to the particular computed time for the computed pose. The position of the mobile device is determined within the environment using the feature points and the selected computed poses for the feature points.

An optical module in the present disclosure includes a first image display panel including a first display part and a first coupling part, a second image display panel including a second display part and a second coupling part, a third image display panel including a third display part and a third coupling part, and a cross dichroic prism configured to synthesize first, second, and third image light. The cross dichroic prism has a cross axis at which a two of photosynthesis surfaces cross each other. The first, second, and third image display panel are respectively bonded to different surfaces of the cross dichroic prism in a state where a long side of each of the first, second, and third display part extends along the cross axis and where the first, second, and third coupling part are each positioned on an outer side of the cross dichroic prism.

There is provided an optical device, including an input aperture, an output aperture, at least first and second light-transmitting substrates each having two major surfaces and edges, an input surface for coupling light waves into the substrate for effecting total internal reflection inside the substrate, and an output surface for coupling light waves out of the substrate, a major surface of the first substrate is attached to a major surface of the second substrate and the input surface of the first substrate is a partially reflecting surface, such that part of the light waves passing through the input aperture is partially reflected by the partially reflecting input surface and coupled into the first substrate and another part passes through the partially reflecting input surface and is coupled by the input surface of the second substrate into the second substrate.

Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media for making virtual colored markings on objects. Instructions may include receiving an indication of an object; receiving from an image sensor an image of a hand of an individual holding a physical marking implement; detecting in the image a color associated with the marking implement; receiving from the image sensor image data indicative of movement of a tip of the marking implement and locations of the tip; determining from the image data when the locations of the tip correspond to locations on the object; and generating, in the detected color, virtual markings on the object at the corresponding locations.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media are disclosed for selectively rendering augmented reality content based on predictions regarding a user's ability to visually process the augmented reality content. For instance, the disclosed systems can identify eye tracking information for a user at an initial time. Moreover, the disclosed systems can predict a change in an ability of the user to visually process an augmented reality element at a future time based on the eye tracking information. Additionally, the disclosed systems can selectively render the augmented reality element at the future time based on the predicted change in the ability of the user to visually process the augmented reality element.

Eyewear including a support structure defining a region for receiving a head of a user. The support structure supports optical elements, electronic components, and a use detector. The use detector is coupled to the electronic components and is positioned to identify when the head of the user is within the region defined by the support structure. The electronic components monitor the use detector and transition from a first mode of operation to a second mode of operation when the use detector senses the head of the user in the region.
