Abstract: An optical profiling system characterizes distortion of a head-mounted display (HMD) under test. The optical profiling system includes a camera assembly and a controller. The controller provides presenting instructions that cause the HMD under test to present test patterns and also provides imaging instructions that cause the camera assembly to captures images of the test patterns presented by the HMD under test. The camera assembly includes one or more characterization cameras. A characterization camera is configured to mimic movement of a human eye and is positioned in an eye box region of the HMD under test. Using the images captured by the camera assembly, the controller measures distortion of the HMD under test. The controller may generate a report charactering the HMD under test based on the measured distortion.

Abstract: System and method for performance characterization of multi configuration near eye displays includes: a mirror; a lamp; a beamsplitter; a collimating and reflective lens for collimating light reflected from the beamsplitter and reflecting it back towards an image sensor having a view finder; a field-of-view (FOV) aperture to project light from the lamp onto the DUT through the objective lens; a video viewfinder digital camera for capturing an virtual image of the DUT; a spectroradiometers for performing spectroradiometric measurements on a captured image of the defined measurement area to characterize the performance of the DUT; and a controller circuit for characterizing performance of the DUT based on the spectroradiometric measurements.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the invention, a discharge lamp driving device includes a discharge lamp driving section, a control section, and a voltage detecting section. The control section is configured to execute a first discharge lamp driving for executing a first control and a second control for supplying a driving current including a direct current and an alternating current to a discharge lamp. In the first discharge lamp driving, the control section executes the first control when the interelectrode voltage is equal to or smaller than a first threshold voltage at predetermined setting timing and executes the second control when the interelectrode voltage is larger than the first threshold voltage at the predetermined setting timing. A rate of the direct current in the second control is larger than a rate of the direct current in the first control.

Abstract: An illumination device includes: a light source; a light guide plate, at least one side face thereof being a light-entering face where light from the light source enters and one surface thereof being a light-exiting surface where light from the light source exits; and a frame-shaped member having a frame shape and including a pressing portion extending inwardly in a plan view and pressing an edge of the light-exiting surface of the light guide plate from above in a side view, an end face of the pressing portion facing inwardly and being exposed to the light-exiting surface thereunder, wherein at least part of the end face of the pressing portion has light-reflecting characteristics and has an inclined surface directed towards the light-exiting surface.

Abstract: The present invention prevents image quality degradation due to pixel enlargement even when using an increased angle of inclination on projecting an image obliquely from a laser scanning display device. A swing mirror is controlled so that the scanning line density in the vertical direction of a display section is uniform in accordance with information including the angle of inclination, the distance of projection, and the display size of the display device with respect to the display section. A lens control driver is controlled so that a collecting lens has a focal point on the display section in accordance with a scanning position in the vertical direction of the swing mirror. The swing mirror or an image correction processing unit is controlled so that a display size in the horizontal direction of a display image on the display section is uniform regardless of the scanning position in the vertical direction.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for secure transfer and playback of multimedia content enables the secure transfer of multimedia content from a digital video recorder (DVR) to a personal computer (PC) and further to a handheld device. A DVR determines which devices on a Local Area Network (LAN) are authorized to share and/or retrieve content from the DVR. The DVR receives a connection request from a PC on the LAN, authorizes the connection request and establishes a secure connection between the DVR and the PC. Once the secure connection is established, the DVR receives a request for multimedia content from the PC, prepares the multimedia content for transfer and transfers the multimedia content to the PC.

Abstract: An ocular lens consists of a positive first lens group, a positive or negative second lens group, and a positive third lens group, in order from an observation object side. The first lens group consists of a positive meniscus lens with a convex surface toward an eye-point side. The second lens group includes a negative lens and a positive lens, and the number of lenses constituting the second lens group is three or less. The third lens group consists of a positive meniscus lens with a convex surface toward the eye-point side. The following conditional expression relating to a focal length of the whole system and a distance on an optical axis from a lens surface closest to the observation object side to a lens surface closest to the eye-point side is satisfied: 0.8<f/TL<1.1.
