The techniques disclosed herein provide apparatus, methods and systems that adaptively adjust the signal waveform (or waveshape) of the drive signal to a slow-scan mirror to compensate for non-linearities observed in the slow-scan feedback signal from a slow-scan mirror. Over large scan angles and high temperatures, the slow-scan mirror in a laser beam scanning device may exhibit a nonlinear response to the drive signal that results in poor image quality issues such as bright lines, bands in the display image, and image distortion. The presently disclosed technologies track the linearity performance of the overall system by detecting non-linearities in waveform of the slow-scan feedback signal real time, and consequently apply a pre-distortion to the drive waveform to compensate for these detected non-linearities. The parameters, logic and blocks of the control may be implemented in hardware, software or combinations thereof.

A light field near-eye display device and a light field near-eye display method are provided. The light field near-eye display device includes a processor, a display panel, and a lens module. The processor calculates new ray tracing data based on a current eye relief, preset eye relief data, and preset ray tracing data, and adjusts preset image data according to the new ray tracing data to generate adjusted image data. The display panel is coupled to the processor and emits an image beam according to the adjusted image data. The lens module includes a microlens array and is disposed between the display panel and a pupil. The image beam is incident to the pupil through the lens module and displays a light field image.
