  • Patent number: 12020648
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described here to compensate for crosstalk (e.g., coupling distortions) that may be caused by a fanout overlaid or otherwise affecting signals transmitted within an active area of an electronic display. The systems and methods may be based on buffered previous image data. Technical effects associated with compensating for the crosstalk may include improved display of image frames since some image artifacts are mitigated and/or made unperceivable or eliminated.

  • Patent number: 12008154
    Abstract: Program actions may be initiated after detection of a predefined gesture by a user with a real-world object. Users may interact with their physical environment in an augmented reality by detecting interactions with real objects using a combination of location and motion detection, material identification using wearable sensors, or both. Based on detected sensor data from user interaction with a real-world object, a predefined gesture may be identified and a program action associated with that target interaction for the real-world object may be executed. In some cases, the user experience may be enhanced by providing haptic feedback in response to tactile gestures and resulting events.

The system divides each image into image portions and generates sequences of image portions to recreate the images based on arrangement data. The system then causes a high-speed display of each sequence of images such that they appear simultaneous to a viewer. In some embodiments, the projection is transmitted to a shifting optical element such as a rotating micromirror that propagates a display to a user. In some embodiments, the system further detects and corrects for image and environmental distortions.
