Abstract: A near-eye display has an image projector coupled to a lightguide for receiving and propagating image light provided by the image projector, the image light carrying an image to be displayed to a viewer. Field of view of the near-eye display may be expanded by providing a beam redirector downstream of the lightguide for controllably redirecting the image light m coordination with displaying different field of view portions by the image projector. To compensate the redirection of external light by the beam redirector, a second beam redirector may be provided upstream of the first redirector and the lightguide.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure can modify a user interface of an artificial reality system based on an ascertained intent of the user. For example, some implementations can “lock” a user's virtual hand to a virtual object displayed on the user interface when a user intends to interact with it with their physical hand, instead of tracking the physical hand with the virtual hand. While the virtual hand is “locked” to the virtual object, some implementations can further A) render another representation of the physical hand, separate from the virtual hand, corresponding to the actual location of the physical hand, B) render a visual affordance on the virtual hand based on movement of the physical hand, and/or C) restrict the amount of wrist rotation that is shown by the virtual hand when the physical hand interacts with the virtual object.

Abstract: Features described herein generally relate to generating and modifying policies with an artificial intelligence (AI) platform based on user activities.
