Publication number: 20240126090Abstract: Head mounted display systems configured to project light to an eye of a user to display augmented reality image content in a vision field of the user are disclosed. In embodiments, the system includes a frame configured to be supported on a head of the user, an image projector configured to project images into the user's eye, a camera coupled to the frame, a waveguide optically coupled to the camera, an optical coupling optical element me, an out-coupling element configured to direct light emitted from the waveguide to the camera, and a first light source configured to direct light to the user's eye through the waveguide. Electronics control the camera to capture images periodically and farther control the first light source to pulse in time with the camera such that light emitted by the light source has a reduced intensity when the camera is not capturing images.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Inventors: Asif Sinay, Barak Freedman, Michael Anthony Klug, Chulwoo Oh, Nizan Meitav

Patent number: 11841481Abstract: A head mounted display system can include a camera, at least one waveguide, at least one coupling optical element that is configured such that light is coupled into said waveguide and guided therein, and at least one out-coupling element. The at least one out-coupling element can be configured to couple light that is guided within said waveguide out of said waveguide and direct said light to said camera. The camera can be disposed in an optical path with respect to said at least one out-coupling optical element to receive at least a portion of the light that is coupled into said waveguide via the coupling element and guided therein and that is coupled out from said waveguide by said out-coupling coupling element such that images may be captured by said camera.Type: GrantFiled: September 21, 2018Date of Patent: December 12, 2023Assignee: MAGIC LEAP, INC.Inventors: Asif Sinay, Barak Freedman, Michael Anthony Klug, Chulwoo Oh, Nizan Meitav

Patent number: 11762455Abstract: Augmented reality headgear includes transparent displays that allow a user to simultaneously view the real world and virtual content positioned in the real world and further includes at least one source of coherent light and at least one sensor array for sensing, at a series of times, speckle patterns produced when the coherent light impinges environment surfaces. Circuitry is provided for sensing shifts in the speckle pattern and determining motion which caused the shift of the speckle pattern and adjusting the display of virtual objects displayed by the augmented reality headgear to compensate for the motion.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2021Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: Asif Sinay, Barak Freedman
