The present invention relates to a reflective eyepiece optical system and a head-mounted near-to-eye display apparatus. The system includes: a first lens group, and a first optical element and a second lens group for transmitting and reflecting a light from a miniature image displayer. The second lens group includes an optical reflection surface, and the optical reflection surface is an optical surface farthest from a human eye viewing side in the second lens group. The optical reflection surface is concave to a human eye viewing direction. The first optical element reflects the light refracted by the first lens group to the second lens group, and then transmits the light refracted, reflected, and refracted by the second lens group to the human eyes.

An ocular optical system configured to allow imaging rays from a display image to enter an observer's eye through the ocular optical system so as to form an image is provided. A direction toward the eye is an eye side, and a direction toward the display image is a display side. The ocular optical system sequentially includes a first and a second lens elements having refracting power from the eye side to the display side along an optical axis. Each lens element includes an eye-side surface and a display-side surface. An optical axis region of the eye-side surface of the first lens element is concave. An optical axis region of the eye-side surface of the second lens element is concave.

The present invention relates to a reflective eyepiece optical system and a head-mounted near-to-eye display device. The system includes: a first optical element and a second optical element arranged successively in an incident direction of an optical axis of human eyes, and a first lens group located on an optical axis of a miniature image displayer. The first optical element is used for transmitting and reflecting an image light from the miniature image displayer. The second optical element includes an optical reflection surface. The first optical element reflects the image light refracted by the first lens group to the second optical element, and then transmits the image light reflected by the second optical element to the human eyes.

A display device has a display, operable to generate a real image, and an optical system, comprising one or more lenslets, arranged to generate a virtual sub-image from a partial real image on the display, by each lenslet projecting light from the display to an eye position. The sub-images combine to form a virtual image viewable from the eye position. At least one lenslet is symmetric with respect to a plane, and the display surface is cylindrical with its axis perpendicular to that plane.

Exemplary embodiments of the present invention relate generally to the fields for indicating a location on an image in a multi-viewer display. In particular embodiments, the multi-viewer display may be a multi-viewer microscope.

An optical sighting device includes an eyepiece positioned to receive optical radiation along an optical axis to produce a real exit pupil located remote from the eyepiece. The real exit pupil is positioned at an eye relief distance from the eyepiece along the optical axis. A digital signal processor determines an axial distance from the eyepiece to an eye positioned proximate the real exit pupil along the optical axis. An aperture stop is centered along the optical axis to direct the optical radiation in a direction of the eyepiece. The eye relief distance is based at least in part on a position of the aperture stop along the optical axis. The optical sighting device further includes an eye relief actuator to translate the aperture stop along the optical axis to null a spatial offset between the eye relief distance and the axial distance to the eye.

Disclosed herein are alignment features for scopes, such as alignment rings for telescopic sights. For example, a scope can includes a proximal end having an interior surface. The proximal end is that which a user aligns his or her eye in order to visualize a target. The scope may also include an alignment ring on the interior surface of the proximal end. The alignment ring assists a user in determining whether his or her eye is properly aligned with a longitudinal axis of the scope. With correct eye alignment, the alignment ring is not visible. With incorrect eye alignment, at least a portion of the alignment ring is visible, thus ensuring accurate sighting.
