Abstract: An example head-mounted display device includes a light projector, an optical assembly arranged to direct light from a light projector to a user, and an actuator module. The optical assembly includes a variable focus lens assembly including a rigid refractive component, a shaper ring defining an aperture, and a flexible lens membrane between the shaper ring and the rigid refractive component and covering the aperture. The refractive component, the shaper ring, and the lens membrane are arranged along an axis. The refractive component and the lens membrane define a chamber containing a volume of fluid. The actuator module is configured to adjust an optical power of the variable focus lens by moving the shaper ring relative to the refractive component along the axis, such that a curvature of the lens membrane in the aperture is modified.

Abstract: An integrated back light unit can include a light guide plate having a non-uniform distribution of extraction features. The non-uniform distribution of the extraction features can be provided by an extraction-feature-free region in proximity to a light emitting device, and/or by a variable density of the extraction features that changes with distance from the light emitting device. Additionally or alternatively, the light guide unit can include a heterogeneous reflectivity surface that has a different reflectivity at proximity to the light emitting device assembly than at a distal portion of the light guide unit. The different reflectivity may be provided by a specular reflective material, diffusive reflective material, or a light absorbing material. The non-uniform distribution of extraction features and/or the heterogeneous reflectivity surface can be employed to enhance brightness uniformity of the reflective light and/or to control the temperature distribution within the light guide unit.
