Publication number: 20160277683Abstract: A system or apparatus for reducing motion blur includes an active shutter system, shutter control and processing components, an optional optical sensor, one or more optional movement sensors, and a power source, and can cooperate with a virtual or augmented reality system and display. The shutter system is optimally positioned between a user and the display so that one or more shutters of the system can be activated to block a user's view of the display. The shutter system is activated to block refresh lines or other artifacts present when the display refreshes. The shutter system also can be activated according to movement of the user. The shutter system can be one or more independent shutters and each shutter can have one or more shutter segments. Additionally, the shutter system can include multiple cooperating layers of shutters. The shutter system further can be incorporated in a multi-lens optical system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 19, 2015Publication date: September 22, 2016Applicant: Ion Virtual Technology CorporationInventors: Daniel Thurber, Jorrit Jongma, Von Ertwine

Publication number: 20160178911Abstract: An inflatable headset system for virtual and augmented reality applications includes multiple inflatable segments that can be inflated or deflated with one or more valves. One inflatable segment either houses a dedicated display device or defines a receptacle for a mobile device. Another inflatable segment includes one or more lenses that are positioned to cooperate with the display of the display device or mobile device when the inflatable segments are at least partially inflated. Preferably, at least one of the inflatable segments has a shape that, when at least partially inflated, acts as a headset frame. The system may further include optional fasteners or straps, optional computer components, optional sensors, and optional input/output devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2015Publication date: June 23, 2016Applicant: Ion Virtual Technology CorporationInventors: Daniel Thurber, Michael Cornett

Publication number: 20160019720Abstract: A virtual reality or augmented reality system comprises first and second displays, lenses, access to computing components, and software for evaluating a selected two-dimensional video, generating a first content and a second content based on the original two-dimensional video and observed characteristics of the two-dimensional video, determining a time delay based on characteristics of the two-dimensional video, and displaying the first content on a first display at a first time and the second content on the second display at a second time. The first content and second content can be generated entirely before displaying on first and second displays or it can be generated dynamically while being displayed. Additionally, the video can be displayed unaltered with only a time delay between the first and second displays depending on the observed characteristics of the two-dimensional video.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2015Publication date: January 21, 2016Applicant: ION VIRTUAL TECHNOLOGY CORPORATIONInventors: Daniel Thurber, Jorrit Jongma
