Abstract: A see-through near eye display, which can be modulated in such a manner to synchronize with electronic enabled micro-lenses of a switchable micro-lens array, wherein when pixels of the near eye display are lit the micro-lenses of the micro-lens array are present; thus, a virtual image can be formed and seen by the eye of a user. When the see-through near eye display is not lit, the micro-lenses are not present, thus permitting a real image to be present.

Abstract: An illustrative method of delivering laser energy to a surface of a trabecular meshwork of an eye includes inserting a probe into the eye and delivering, at multiple locations along the trabecular meshwork, shots of the laser energy via the probe to create a plurality of perforations in the trabecular meshwork.

Abstract: A method of calibrating a monitoring system (10,14) is described in which a calibration phantom (70) is located with its center located approximately at the isocenter of a treatment room through which a treatment apparatus (16) is arranged to direct radiation, wherein the surface of the calibration phantom (70) closest to an image capture device (72) of the monitoring system (10,14) is inclined approximately 45° relative to the camera plane of an image capture device of the monitoring system. Images of the calibration phantom (70) are then captured using the image capture device (72) and the images are processed to generate a model of the imaged surface of the calibration phantom.

Abstract: A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a housing having a front lighting surface, and a substantially planar plate and at least one lighting module mounted on the plate. The plate has a general plane of extension that is horizontal when the housing is mounted in the vehicle, and has a surface referred to as a lower surface and a surface referred to as an upper surface. The plate includes a first control system which includes a first male element and is arranged to cause translation of the first male element in an axis parallel to the plate, the plate being provided with a first recess receiving the first male element. A second control system that includes a second male element and is arranged to cause translation of the second male element in an axis perpendicular to the plate, the plate being provided with a second recess on its upper or lower surface that receives the second male element. The housing thus takes up less space above the modules, which can easily be raised.

The method can include receiving image data indicative of at least two images of a user's eye, identifying, in each image, regions related to the eye limbus; determining geometrical representation of the limbus structure, and determining a three-dimensional position and gaze direction of the user's eye (i.e. full six degrees of freedom of the eye) by triangulation of the geometrical representation of the limbus structure of at least two images.

Abstract: This intraocular lens (IOL) injector cartridge has a proximal opening in a main body for receiving an IOL. The main body has a lumen that extends longitudinally to a distal end having an opening smaller than the IOL. Passage through the lumen compresses or rolls the IOL so that when the distal end is inserted through a small incision in the eye the IOL can be expelled into the capsular bag. The distal end of the cartridge is beveled with a leading tip in front of a trailing heel. The characteristics of the beveled end are such that damage to the IOL is reduced. The bevel may be straight or curved and includes a distal face defined by the thickness of the distal end between the lumen and an exterior surface. The distal face may be flush with the bevel or chamfered. An inner corner angle between the distal face and the lumen is ?60° to reduce the chance of scratching the IOL as it passes out of the distal opening.

Abstract: A player monitoring system efficiently processes sensor data in a manner that reduces processing burdens on processing resources of the system. In some embodiments, sensor data from one sensor (e.g., a low-resolution or low-rate sensor) is used to identify an event of interest, such as a player launching an object to another player or goal. In response to the detected event, sensor data from another sensor (e.g., a high-resolution or a high-rate sensor) is culled based on a time or location of the event so as to reduce the amount of data processed by the system to evaluate a performance of a player during the event. Thus, the overall amount of data processed for evaluating player performance can be significantly reduced, thereby increasing system efficiency.

The information may be obtained from various sources such as objects and/or features that are dynamically detected by a vehicle or user-generated content. The graphical representations may also be based upon information that may be obtained via the use of crowdsourced AV map data. The graphical representations may be presented in as an AR view in a medium (such as a vehicle windshield) that matches a field of view of a user, thus accurately blending holographic information with the physical objects in the scene.
