Abstract: An eye tracking system includes a pair of glasses including two frames; a light scanning projector coupled to the pair of glasses and operable to scan a beam of light to project an image frame including a plurality of pixels; an eyepiece mounted in one of the two frames and optically coupled to the light scanning projector; one or more photodetectors coupled to one of the two frames and operable to detect time-varying reflected signals; and a processor coupled to the light scanning projector and the photodetectors. The eyepiece includes an exit pupil expander operable to direct a portion of the beam of light towards an eye of a user. Each of the time-varying reflected signals is associated with the plurality of pixels. The processor is operable to correlate the time-varying reflected signals with the plurality of pixels and determine a first eye orientation.

Abstract: A waveguide apparatus includes a planar waveguide and at least one optical diffraction element (DOE) that provides a plurality of optical paths between an exterior and interior of the planar waveguide. A phase profile of the DOE may combine a linear diffraction grating with a circular lens, to shape a wave front and produce beams with desired focus. Waveguide apparati may be assembled to create multiple focal planes. The DOE may have a low diffraction efficiency, and planar waveguides may be transparent when viewed normally, allowing passage of light from an ambient environment (e.g., real world) useful in AR systems. Light may be returned for temporally sequentially passes through the planar waveguide. The DOE(s) may be fixed or may have dynamically adjustable characteristics. An optical coupler system may couple images to the waveguide apparatus from a projector, for instance a biaxially scanning cantilevered optical fiber tip.

Abstract translation: 波导装置包括平面波导和至少一个在平面波导的外部和内部之间提供多条光路的光学衍射元件(DOE)。 DOE的相位曲线可以将线性衍射光栅与圆形透镜组合,以形成波前,并产生具有期望焦距的光束。 波导装置可以组装成多个焦平面。 DOE可能具有低衍射效率,并且平面波导在正常观看时可以是透明的,允许来自在AR系统中有用的周围环境(例如真实世界)的光的通过。 光可以在时间上依次通过平面波导返回。 DOE可以是固定的或可以具有动态可调特性。 光耦合器系统可以从投影仪将图像耦合到波导装置,例如双轴扫描悬臂光纤尖端。
