Abstract: An image display system includes an optical subsystem configured to emit a modulated light beam, and a scanning mirror for generating a reflected light beam that is scanned according to randomly selected or pseudo-randomly selected scan patterns to generate multiple image fields of a multiple interlaced scan image. A plurality of different scan patterns can be cycled through, randomly or pseudo-randomly selected, for the different image fields to reduce artifacts that may be observed while viewing a projected image.

Abstract: Optical systems and methods for operation thereof are disclosed. A delimited zone is defined as a function of distance from the optical system based on a VAC limit, the delimited zone having at least one distance threshold. A virtual distance of a virtual depth plane from the optical system at which a virtual object is to be displayed is determined. It is determined whether the virtual distance is outside the delimited zone by comparing the virtual distance to the at least one distance threshold. A collimated pixel beam associated with the virtual object is generated by a projector of the optical system. The collimated pixel beam is modified to generate a modified pixel beam if the virtual distance is outside the delimited zone. Modifying the collimated pixel beam includes converging the collimated pixel beam and/or reducing a diameter of the collimated pixel beam.

Abstract: Augmented and virtual reality display systems increase viewer comfort by reducing viewer exposure to virtual content that causes undesirable accommodation-vergence mismatches (AVM). The display systems limit displaying content that exceeds an accommodation-vergence mismatch threshold, which may define a volume around the viewer. The volume may be subdivided into two or more zones, including an innermost loss-of-fusion zone (LoF) in which no content is displayed, and one or more outer AVM zones in which the displaying of content may be stopped, or clipped, under certain conditions. For example, content may be clipped if the viewer is verging within an AVM zone and if the content is displayed within the AVM zone for more than a threshold duration. A further possible condition for clipping content is that the user is verging on that content.

Abstract: According to a first aspect disclosed herein, there is provided a controller for controlling a first light source to emit light into a pupil of a human user in order to reduce at least one biological effect of light from a second light source on the human user, the controller comprising: a first input for receiving light property data indicating a property of the light from the second light source, said property being of a type which causes a biological effect on the human user; a second input for receiving pupil data indicating a size of the pupil of the human user; an output for sending control commands to the first light source; a processor configured to: determine, using the light property data received via the first input, that the light from the second light source has said property; in response to said determination that the light from the second light source has said property, determine, using said pupil data received via the second input, a current size of the pupil; and on condition that the current

Abstract: There is provided an apparatus and method of operating the apparatus to guide a user in a long-term memory training session. One or more items are rendered to the user in the long-term memory training session (202). A request is initiated for the user to recall at least one rendered item that directly precedes the request (204). A memory strategy applied by the user to the long-term memory training session is determined based on a response received from the user to the request (206). When the memory strategy applied by the user to the long-term memory training session is determined to be a working memory strategy (208), an action is initiated to guide the user to apply a long-term memory strategy to the long-term memory training session (210).
