  • Patent number: 11983823
    Abstract: Examples of wearable systems and methods can use multiple inputs (e.g., gesture, head pose, eye gaze, voice, totem, and/or environmental factors (e.g., location)) to determine a command that should be executed and objects in the three-dimensional (3D) environment that should be operated on. The wearable system can detect when different inputs converge together, such as when a user seeks to select a virtual object using multiple inputs such as eye gaze, head pose, hand gesture, and totem input. Upon detecting an input convergence, the wearable system can perform a transmodal filtering scheme that leverages the converged inputs to assist in properly interpreting what command the user is providing or what object the user is targeting.

  • Patent number: 11960098
    Abstract: A beam shaping method and device employing full-image transfer for planar light sources. The method comprises: using multiple first lenses to respectively magnify and image beams emitted by multiple planar light sources, so as to obtain magnified full images of the multiple planar light sources; and seamlessly stitching together the magnified full images of the multiple planar light sources at a primary imaging position, so as to obtain a seamless light source at the primary imaging position. The beam shaping method for the planar light sources achieves the elimination of gaps between the light sources with almost no loss of optical power by means of full-image transfer and seamless stitching, thereby improving the beam quality of the light sources as a whole. This kind of optical shaping method is suitable for shaping and processing planar light sources such as VCSEL and LED.

  • Patent number: 11963428
    Abstract: A display panel and a display device are disclosed. The display panel includes a display panel body and a polarizer, placed on the display panel body in a direction of outgoing light. The display panel body includes a metal layer having a reflection area corresponding to a first heading angle larger than a reflection area corresponding to a second heading angle. A light extinction of the polarizer corresponding to the first heading angle is greater than a light extinction of the polarizer corresponding to the second heading angle. This could remedy the light extinction of the polarizer in the second heading angle such that the display panel could have similar reflection rates and color shifts in all heading angles.
